Title:Obesity is a Negative Predictor of Success after Surgery for Complex Anal
Fistula
Version: 3Date:4 May 2011
Reviewer: Wilhelm Graf
Reviewer's report:
The author have corrected most of the comments raised. However, some
corrections should still be performed;
1. The author claims that the follow-up time is given in median but in the results it
still reads mean.
2. The question of IRB approval was not answered. If the author believe that IRB
approval is unnececary, this should be explained and motivated.
3. The text of the results section still state that Table 2 contains etiology data, but
it does not.
If these corrections are made, and checked by the Editor, I believe the paper is
suitable for publication.
