Title:Pancreatic-specific autoantibodies to glycoprotein 2 mirror disease location
and behaviour in younger patients with Crohn's disease
Version: 1Date:7 June 2012
Reviewer: Mária Papp
Reviewer's report:
The authors assessed the prevalence and clinical significance of anti-GP2
antibodies in IBD and reported that patients having these antibodies show
distinct diseases phenotypes. Results might be of interest for clinicians in the
patient stratification. Discussion and conclusions are well balanced supported by
the results.
Minor comments:
Method section is unnecessarily long. Please do not detail the method of a
commercially available ELISA and shorten the method previously reported
elsewhere as well.
Report of data significance is annoying. Please do not use six decimal value.
Instead chose p#0.001 or p#0.01 or three decimal value.
Level of interest: An article of importance in its field
Quality of written English: Acceptable
Statistical review: No, the manuscript does not need to be seen by a
statistician.
