Title:Confocal laser endomicroscopy in prediction of relapse in patients with
ulcerative colitis
Version:1Date:28 November 2013
Reviewer: Takafumi Ando
Reviewer's report:
This paper concluded activity assessment and relapse prediction by CLE for
patients with UC are accurate compared with conventional histology, and
confirmed the former paper (Watanabe et al.) that had reported 'Images obtained
with confocal microendoscope provided information that was equivalent to
conventional histology.'
So now CLE is comparable to conventional histology in predicting relapse in
patients with UC. It's interesting and intriguing. However, it needs some language
corrections before being published.
Level of interest: An article whose findings are important to those with closely
related research interests
Quality of written English: Needs some language corrections before being
published
Statistical review: Yes, but I do not feel adequately qualified to assess the
statistics.
