Title:The VEGF -634G>C promoter polymorphism is associated with risk of
gastric cancer
Version: 2Date:25 August 2009
Reviewer: Annamaria Ruzzo
Reviewer's report:
Major Compulsory Revisions:
1.The association between Helicobacter Pilory (HP) and gastric cancer is well
established. HP infection is common in the United States. About 20 percent of
people under 40 years old and half of those over 60 years have it. It is very
important to know if patients and controls are infected. This paper still lacks this
important data.
Level of interest: An article of insufficient interest to warrant publication in a
scientific/medical journal
Quality of written English: Acceptable
Statistical review: Yes, but I do not feel adequately qualified to assess the
statistics.
