Title: Long-term Outcomes of Additional Surgery Versus Surveillance-Only Clinical
Decision for Early Colorectal Cancer Patients After Non-curative Endoscopic Resection: A
Meta-analysis
Version: 5 Date: 29 Oct 2024
Reviewer's report:
I have read the revised paper and find it to be very clear and well-balanced. However, I would
like to request three minor revisions:
1. The definition of non-healing resection in JSSCR lacks citation of relevant literature. I
recommend adding this information in the Methods section (2.2 Literature Selection Criteria
and Outcome Measures).
2. In Table 1, please add footnotes for terms such as ER: Endoscopic Resection.
3. Please verify the numbering of the references, as it appears to be incorrect due to revisions in
the main text. The references are numbered up to 37, but the main text only refers to 34.
