"I think the topic of this study is interesting and may add more evidence into the existing literature. However, I still found several flaws, especially in the Methodology of this study that should be resolved during the peer review process.
1) Methods: According to the PRISMA guideline, systematic review study should have a protocol that is registered in international registry. However, this systematic review is not registered in the international registry such as PROSPERO. This should become a major limitation from this study.
2) Methods: The combined keywords provided by the authors is not comprehensive enough to capture all of the potentially eligible articles. The authors should explore more keywords that are often associated with cholangiopathy and Covid-19.
3) Methods: There is redundancy about the keywords for literature searching. The authors state these keywords in "Data Sources" and "Study Selection and Data Extraction" sub-section. This mistake should be avoided in the future. The database used, process of literature searching and study selection should be combined under one sub-section to avoid redundancy.
4) Methods: The authors may use PECOS/PICOS (Population, Exposure/Intervention, Control, Outcome, and Study Design) to give better explanation about inclusion and exclusion criteria.
5) Methods: The term "cholangiopathy" should be defined. Which condition that can be considered under the term "cholangiopathy" in this study?
6) Methods: According to the PRISMA guideline, a systematic review should assess the risk of bias from the included studies. I don't see any description on the risk of bias assessment in this systematic review.
7) Results: In Figure 1, the reasons for study exclusion after full-text review should be stated.
8) Results: Table 1 and Table 2 should be cited and provided in the Results section, not in the Discussion section."

"I have carefully reviewed your systematic review manuscript and would like to commend you on the effort and the depth of insights provided on the subject matter. However, there are a few key areas that I believe require further attention and elaboration to ensure that the work aligns with the standards of a comprehensive systematic review:
Methods Section & PRISMA Checklist: The methods section appears relatively concise. Adhering to the PRISMA guidelines will ensure comprehensive reporting of systematic reviews. I suggest revisiting the PRISMA checklist and ensuring that each element is addressed adequately within your methods. It would be beneficial for readers if you could expand on your methodology by offering a detailed account of the selection criteria, data extraction, and the synthesis approach.
Risk of Bias Assessment: An essential component of systematic reviews is the risk of bias assessment, which seems to be absent from your manuscript. Assessing and reporting the risk of bias for each study will not only enhance the credibility of your review but also allow readers to critically evaluate the reliability of the included studies. I recommend incorporating a risk of bias assessment, perhaps using tools like the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool or the ROBINS-I tool, depending on the nature of the included studies.
Search Strategy: The provided search strategy seems brief. A detailed account of the search strategy, including search terms, Boolean operators, and filters used, will improve the transparency and replicability of your review. This is vital to allow other researchers to reproduce or build upon your work.
Number of Results Across Databases: It's notable that the number of results obtained across the databases appears lower than what one might expect from a comprehensive systematic review. While it's entirely possible that this is reflective of the literature on this topic, it might be beneficial to revisit your search terms and strategy. Ensuring a broader and more exhaustive search might provide a richer dataset for your review.
In conclusion, while the core of your work is promising, addressing these points will significantly bolster the robustness, comprehensiveness, and utility of your systematic review."

"- The study is about accidental ingestion in children which is always an important world wide emergency status for either the parents or the emergency department doctors. The authors have described the presentation and symptoms of the patients, diagnostic and treatment procedures in detail and summarize them concisely in the tables and figures along with comparing with the relevant literature. Thanks to the authors for this beneficial work.
- The originality of the study comes from being the first study about accidental ingestion in children being held in the country of the authors, Bahrain. I believe that publishing these kinds of first studies of their place will encourage other many authors to publish similar studies in our journal and this will lead to receive many citations, which will be beneficial to the scientific level of our journal, WJCP.
- The manuscript is well, concisely and coherently organized and presented.
- The language in the article correctly, clearly and concisely expresses the information.
- At last, I have to call attention to the editor about two points below, probably unnoticed during the review and publishing process:
(If possible in the electronic medium, they would be revised and published again)
1) At the end of the 7th paragraph,
“The medications included paracetamol (n = 4), antihypertensives (n = 3, coversyl in two and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor in one patient), antihistamines, hypoglycemic agents, oral contraceptives, nitrite, multivitamins, methylphenidate, and multiple medications (n = 1 each).”
“Coversyl®” is the trade name of an antihypertensive drug, it is not suitable to write it in a medical article. Active substance of Coversyl® is “perindopril” and it should be written instead of Coversyl®.
2) Heading of Table 7 is “Summary of foreign body ingestion in children from neighboring counties and worldwide”.
“Counties” should be written as “countries”."

"In this manuscript, the authors aimed to demonstrate the significant factors associated with the relapse of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP). Although a substantial number of cases were enrolled from a single institution, two distinctly different categorical diseases, AIP types 1 and 2, were evaluated in the same setting, which could hinder drawing accurate conclusions. Furthermore, there is a careless mistake in the labeling of critical data in Figure 2. It is unfortunate that the study was conducted and presented with a poor design."

The patient suffered from intestinal obstruction due to the compression of a huge hepatic cyst, and recovered after surgical treatment. This study suggests that clinical attention should be paid to the possible complications caused by giant hepatic cysts and early treatment should be carried out.

"This is a very interesting study that provides a basis for elucidating the molecular mechanism by which ACE2 regulates HSC autophagy through the AMPK/mTOR pathway to improve liver fibrosis and hepatic sinusoidal remodeling. Results of this study indicated that ACE2 overexpression can inhibit HSC activation and promote cell apoptosis by regulating HSC autophagy through the AMPK/mTOR pathway in vivo; however, in vitro analyses could confirm the consistency of its effectiveness."

"The study presents a promising investigation into the use of freeze-dried recombinant human BNP therapy for chronic heart failure (CHF) patients. The abstract is clear and well-structured, summarizing the research objectives, methods, and key findings effectively.
The randomized control and observation groups contribute to the study's reliability. The positive impact on clinical efficacy, reduced inflammatory markers, and improved cardiac function in the observation group compared to the control group are significant findings that support the potential effectiveness of freeze-dried recombinant human BNP therapy.
The mention of safety and minimal adverse effects is reassuring, although it would be beneficial to include specific adverse reactions observed. Overall, this study underscores the therapeutic potential of this treatment for CHF patients and encourages further research in this area.

"The authors showed that diabetic hyperglycemia induced severe DSS colitis. Interestingly high glucose itself did not induce severe DSS (Figure 4); however, the anti-diabetic drug SGLT2i in DIO mice ameliorated DSS colitis. They concluded that the reduction in mucin and intestinal barrier function was induced by diabetic hyperglycemia with DIO.
It is important to suggest that SGLT2i may have the potential to reduce the score of colits. Further studies are required to elucidate the precise mechanism by which diabetic hyperglycemia induces severe DSS colitis, especially involvement of microbiome and immune cells in colon.

" The prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in China has increased significantly in recent decades, leading to co-morbid chronic hepatitis B and NAFLD in some patients. Many HBV patients require long-term antiviral drugs such as Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) and Entecavir (ETV), which are recommended as first-line agents in the HBV clinical practice guideline. It has been shown that TAF has a lipid-enhancing effect in HIV patients. But no studies comparing the effects of TAF and ETV on the lipid profiles of HBV patients. The aim of this article is to investigate the effect of TAF on lipid levels and the risk of developing NAFLD in patients with chronic hepatitis B, and to compare the changes in lipid levels before and after antiviral therapy with TAF or ETV.
In this study, 336 patients with chronic hepatitis B treated with ETV or TAF enrolled at the outpatient department of the Hepatology Research Institute of the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from January 2020 to January 2021. The baseline data of patients with CHB and the clinical characteristics, lipids, and metabolic factors before and approximately 1 year after TAF or ETV treatment were statistically analyzed using SPSS 23.0, and the effects of ETV and TAF on HDL, LDL, triglycerides, and total cholesterol (TCHO) were evaluated using propensity score-matched model.
Post-treatment TCHO levels were significantly higher in the TAF group than in the ETV group. In the propensity score-matched model, TCHO levels were significantly higher than baseline levels in patients in the TAF treatment group, whereas there was no difference in the ETV group. In logistic regression analysis, body mass index, gender, hypertension, baseline TCHO, and CK- MB levels were significantly associated with elevated TCHO levels. However, 1 year of TAF treatment did not increase the incidence of NAFLD. Therefore, in this study TCHO was higher in patients treated with TAF than in patients with chronic hepatitis B who received ETV; however, there was no increase in the incidence of NAFLD due to TAF-induced dyslipidemia.
The study was comprehensive. In addition to comparing the baseline data and clinical features of patients treated with TAF and ETV, this study compared changes in lipid profiles as well as whether NAFLD increased before and after TAF or ETV therapy. It assessed the impact and extent of TAF on achieving elevated lipid levels compared with ETV, and the correlation between BMI, gender, hypertension, baseline TCHO, CK-MB levels and elevated TCHO levels was summarized.
The research topic is new. In the context of increasing prevalence of NAFLD and 84 million people with HBV infection in China, as well as existing studies showing that TAF could increase lipid levels in patients with HIV, limited data t are available about the effect of TAF on metabolism-related complications in patients with CHB and that the effect of ETV on lipids has not yet been reported in post-marketing studies. Therefore, it is important to investigate whether TAF raises lipid levels and increases the prevalence of NAFLD in patients with chronic hepatitis B and to compare it with ETV.
The study was methodologically scientific. The study excluded patients with insufficient years of drug use, interference with other antiviral drugs or comorbidities associated with other liver-related diseases or heavy alcohol intake, and enrolled 336 chronic hepatitis B patients taking TAF or ETV in a single center. They were divided into the group receiving TAF and the group receiving ETV. And pre-treatment lipid profiles and repeat lipid assessments were performed 1 year after the initiation of antiviral therapy. Baseline information and data related to clinical characteristics, metabolic levels, and lipids were collected from enrolled patients before antiviral therapy and after 1 year of treatment. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 23.0. Normally distributed continuous variables were expressed as mean ± standard deviation, and Student's t-tests were performed for the different treatment groups to assess whether the differences were statistically significant. Categorical variables were described using frequencies and proportions, and the χ2 test was used to compare categorical variables. Paired t-tests and paired χ2 tests were used to assess differences in levels before and after treatment for the same treatment group. Differences in each lipid profile component between pre- and post-treatment were calculated, and propensity score matching models were used to assess the effect of treatment type (TAF vs ETV) on changes in lipid profile components. Finally, logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the odds ratio of associations between baseline factors and elevated TCHO levels.
The findings of this study are innovative. It found that chronic hepatitis B patients treated with TAF had higher elevations of TCHO than those treated with ETV. With fewer studies on the subject, these findings are intended to provide guidance for future treatment of patients with CHB combined with NAFLD.
Shortcomings: the study period is short, whether TAF and ETV can increase the prevalence of NAFLD in patients with chronic hepatitis B has not been effectively verified. This study is a single-center retrospective study, which is prone to retrospective bias and selection bias. Therefore, a large-sample multicenter prospective trial would be necessary to verify these findings.

"The results of this well designed trial demonstrated that there might be potential side effects of Tenofovir alafenamide as a leading killer targeting anti-hepatitis B virus. As known, Tenofovir alafenamide was developed initially for hepatitis C, however, data was not convincing. With the prevalence of COVID-19, increasing evidence showed the novel use of anti-virus medication might be of effect in areas otherwise, which seems helpful. "

"The manuscript touched an important area of Medicine in an important age group, investigation eating disorders is of great importance among adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus. The authors introduced their projects, presented their findings, discussed them, and reached a conclusion. Eating disorders are common, when co-exist with diabetes they exacerbate each other deleterious consequences. Importantly, adolescent might decrease the dose or omit insulin in an attempt to reduce weight, resulting in poor glycemic control or even ketoacidosis (diabulimia). Raising the awareness of eating disorders among patients with diabetes is vital to avoid acute and chronic diabetes complications.
