Title: Clinical importance of weight gain and associated factors in patients with moderate to
severe ulcerative colitis: Results from the MOSAIK cohort in Korea
Version: 1 Date: 17 Apr 2023
Reviewer's report:
It was interesting to see a prospective study on the course of treatment and weight gain in
ulcerative colitis.
I think your paper is worthy of publication, but I would like a brief consideration.
The reason why the weight gain was remarkable in the pancolitis type is probably due to the
more active ulcerative colitis.Therefore, isn't it possible that comparisons with healthy body
weights before onset, rather than comparisons with body weights immediately before treatment,
may also be involved in the risk of adverse events?
I would appreciate it if you could consider.
