Title: Comprehensive knowledge of mother-to-child HIV/AIDS transmission, prevention,
and associated factors among reproductive-age women in East Africa: insights from recent
demographic and national health surveys
Version: 0 Date: 12 Mar 2024
Reviewer:  Tolulope Afolaranmi
Reviewer's report:
The manuscript has demonstrated the importance of  population data in driving policy and
informing change . However, the following revision  is necessary
Introduction
1. The authors should consider citing a more recent figure if available as against the 2017 figures
2. The authors should revise the objective (s) of the study as stated in the last paragraph of the
introduction to synergize with the title as awareness is not directly synonymous with knowledge
talk -less of comprehensive knowledge.
Methods
1.  The details of data abstraction methods needs to be provided as well as the rationale for
combining 2011/12 and 2022 . Additionally, combining DHS data for 10 countries will require
the use of a data abstraction template, details on this should be provided. This will promote
reproducibility .
2. Stating the rationale for considering a p-value of 0.2 for multivariable analysis  is important .
3. It is important that the authors provide appropriate reference(s) for categorizing the primary
outcome variable as such .
Results
1. In the narration of the results of the factors, the authors should consider using the adjusted
odds ratios to express the results such as: the odds of  knowledge of PMTCT  was 1.21 times
among women aged 24 -34 when compared to those 15 -23 having adjusted for other factors
such as … in the model. Additionally, all the AOR could be removed from the bracket while
the corresponding 95 CI can still be kept in the bracket. It is also unclear why the age groups
15 -24 and 24-34 are overlapping .
Discussion
1. The authors could consider improving the discussion section by ensuring that the implications
of the findings of the study to the practice of PMTCT is made more visible
Conclusion
1. The conclusion should be revised to reflect salient findings of the study in relation to its
objective and hinging the recommendations on the predictors  without mentioning the statistical
model or analysis employed

The authors have painstakingly revised the manuscript in line with the review comments. I am
of the opinion the quality of this manuscript has improved and it is publication worthy .
Title: Comprehensive knowledge of mother-to-child HIV/AIDS transmission, prevention,
and associated factors among reproductive-age women in East Africa: insights from recent
demographic and national health surveys
Version: 2 Date: 06 May 2024
Reviewer's report:
Unfortunately, none of the three critical comments were addressed
1. Denormalization of sampling weight is not v005/1000000. Denomalization is
v005*X(population size of the target population)/sample size from DHS. where v005* is
v005/1000000. Need to denomalize sample weight when you pooled data from different surveys
as they have different target population sizes and probability sampling of enumeration areas
varies.
2. Research is science and we all learn everyday and the fact that everybody reports odds ratio
for cross-sectional studies does not mean that is the acceptable norm. Odds ratio are estimates
of interest for case-control studies and may be similar to prevalence ratio which is the estimate
of interest for cross-sectional surveys in the context of rare outcomes (<20%). Unfortunately,
comprehensive knowledge was far more than 20%.
3.  In my humble opinion, I am still not convinced about merging the categories of knowledge
simply because DHS says so. Remember that DHS only provide descriptive summary of
their core indicators of interest and they are right if they decide to merge categories into
binary indicator for the purposes of providing descriptive summary. Your study goes beyond
descriptive summary and you are fitting models to some outcomes. In that case, the level of the
categorical outcome is so critical. The argument that your focus is on comprehensive knowledge
and making the outcome binary and fitting logistic regression model may aid interpretation,
may not be the case. In fact, ordinal logistic regression model can still compare comprehensive
knowledge (4/4) to the other levels (0/4, 1/4, 2/4, 3/4). Your interpretation could still be captured
as follows: the odds of having comprehensive knowledge versus the combined (moderate, low,
poor) knowledge.....
4. In my humble opinion and as researchers, we must always do our best to learn from best
practices and not to be swayed by the popular but incorrect model estimation techniques. You
may present sensitivity analysis by fitting different models for readers to have a fair belief in
your model estimates. You can still compare your findings with other studies and that level of
comparison is not just about the method but which factors were found to be associated with
comprehensive knowledge.
Title: Combined impact of sleep and obesity on female infertility in the NHANES 2017-2020
Version: 0 Date: 02 Apr 2024
Reviewer's report:
This study is interesting. However, some outcomes are difficult to understand and not accurate
enough. They talk about the duration of infertility but we do not have the regularity of the sexual
intercourse. Concerning sleep duration, is there any other categories that “More or less than 7
hours”, is there work by night ? Or insomnia or baby of less than 18 months? What is trouble
sleeping? More characterization of trouble sleeping is needed such as time to fall asleep, how
many wake up during the night,…
Results are not clearly detailed, it could be interesting to have more specification of the troubles
of sleeping to detail the outcomes.
It seems obvious that if you are tired, you don’t want to have sexual intercourse. I think this
information is missing.
All the information regarding the covariates are interesting but not specific to our interest. I
think we can add some information like number of children, quality of sperm, all the causes
of infertility.
It could be also interesting to talk about PCOS and the regularity of the cycle. Maybe PCOS is
more related to troubles of sleeping and obesity.
I suggest to review this manuscript regarding PCOS and going further in the trouble of sleeping.
Title: Combined impact of sleep and obesity on female infertility in the NHANES 2017-2020
Version: 0 Date: 15 Apr 2024
Reviewer's report:
This study did a good job on evaluating the combined impact of trouble sleeping / sleep duration
and overweight/obesity/ abdominal obesity on the risk of female infertility. Both trouble sleeping
and sleep duration#7h were associated with increased odds of female infertility. Several items
should be clarified:
1. The assessment of infertility was based on two questions from NHANES. If the answer to the
second question was “YES”, the volunteers will be classified as infertility. Is this reasonable?
2. Continuous variables were reported as mean (standard error, SE)#but not SD. If you want to
characterize the distribution of data, mean and standard deviation are appropriate; if you want
to make inferential statistics, such as estimating the population mean or comparing the means
of two or more groups, mean and standard deviation may be more critical.
3. How are potential confounders identified?
Title: 18 F-FDG PET/CT findings in Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome: a systematic
review and a new case report
Version: 1 Date: 27 Dec 2023
Reviewer:  Imane Boujguenna
Reviewer's report:
very interesting aricle
This article  is one  of a limited number of studies that investigated the use of 18F-FDG PET/
CT in NBCCS.
The findings from these studies suggest that 18F-FDG PET/CT can be a valuable imaging
modality for detecting and characterizing basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) in individuals with
NBCCS.
The review also highlights the potential of 18F-FDG PET/CT in identifying other manifestations
of NBCCS, such as odontogenic keratocysts and skeletal abnormalities. However, the review
acknowledges the need for further research to establish the precise role and clinical utility of
18F-FDG PET/CT in NBCCS
It is essential to emphasize the importance of anatomopathological examination in the diagnosis
of breast cancer. In the present case, where the patient has breast cancer, it is necessary to
consider the possibility of cutaneous metastasis of breast carcinoma or cutaneous manifestations
related to hormone therapy as the first possibility. Anatomopathological examination will
confirm the diagnosis by analyzing the tissues taken during surgery or other diagnostic
procedures.
Anatomopathological examination involves examining tissue samples under a microscope to
identify specific characteristics of the cancer and determine its origin. This allows differentiation
between cutaneous metastases of breast carcinoma and other skin conditions, confirming the
link to breast cancer.
It should be noted that anatomopathological examination complements other diagnostic tests
such as medical imaging (mammography, ultrasound, MRI) and laboratory analyses (tumor
marker testing). These different diagnostic approaches are used in conjunction to establish an
accurate diagnosis and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
Does 18F-FDG PET/CT allow to differentiate between cutaneous metastasis of breast carcinoma
and other types of malignant tumors?
the article needs to be revised by an English speaker.
Replace 'endocrine therapy' with 'hormone therapy'and specify the type.
Title: Mullerian adenosarcoma of the uterus with MASO: A case report of cervical
adenosarcoma in a young female that never had sexual behavior
Version: 0 Date: 30 Oct 2023
Reviewer's report:
Abbreviation of the word ‘HPF’ should be explained in the first use.
Abbreviation of the word ‘CDFI’ has not been used in the text.
Reference number 6 has missing data.
Discussion section needs to be shortened.
Title: Mullerian adenosarcoma of the uterus with MASO: A case report of cervical
adenosarcoma in a young female that never had sexual behavior
Version: 0 Date: 10 Nov 2023
Reviewer's report:
I read with great interest the manuscript.
The topic is interesting due to the rarity of such lesions, nevertheless, the authors should clarify
some points and improve the discussion by citing relevant and novel key articles about the topic.
- The whole text should be corrected by a native English speaker in order to make the work
clearer and more readable.
- The title should be modified to better summarize the content of the manuscript and to attract
readers' attention.
- I think that the introduction could be presented in depth. In fact, some aspects should be
highlighted. In particular, the importance of cancer screening should be improved by analyzing
the obstetrical outcomes and the positive margins persistence. This could emphasize the
importance of screening. I suggest these articles to get deeper in the topic : PMID: 33140628
and PMID: 36992282.
- I also suggest authors to better organize the discussion section following this ideal structure:
main findings of the study, strengths and limitations of the study, implications and comparison
with literature and future directions.
Title: Mullerian adenosarcoma of the uterus with MASO: A case report of cervical
adenosarcoma in a young female that never had sexual behavior
Version: 0 Date: 10 Nov 2023
Reviewer's report:
I read with great interest the Manuscript titled “Mullerian adenosarcoma of the uterus with
MASO: A case report of cervical adenosarcoma in a young female that never has sexual
behavior” which falls within the aim of the Journal.
Although the manuscript can be considered already of good quality, I would suggest to take into
account the following recommendations:
- I suggest round of language revision, in order to correct few typos and improve readability;
-  Considering topic and case analyzed in this study, it would be interesting to discuss how
various factors could be crucial in the development of carcinogenesis, and how they could
influence the persistence and / or recurrence, also in this histological cancers type. I would be
glad if the authors discuss this important point, referring to PMID: 37401466 and 37747763.
Because of these reasons, the article should be revised and completed. Considering all these
points, I think it could be of interest to the readers and, in my opinion, it deserves the priority
to be published after minor revisions.
Title: Obstetric vesico-uterine fistula in nine reference hospitals in the Democratic Republic of
the Congo: Prevalence, epidemiological, clinical, and therapeutic aspects
Version: 0 Date: 06 Feb 2024
Reviewer's report:
1. Obstetric vesico-uterine fistula in the Democratic Republic of the Congo: Prevalence,
epidemiological, clinical, and therapeutic aspects.
For a hospital study, extrapolation to the entire country is not prudent.
It would be wise for the authors to limit themselves to the hospitals concerned. I suggest adding
“in seven reference hospitals”
2. Methods
1°. Definition of cases: it would be important to define certain terms and certain techniques
performed for understanding
2°. Data were collected from outpatient registries, operating room registries, and hospital records
The study is said to be retrospective, but there appears to be a problem in the chronology of the
events. Some details of the results appear to have been collected prospectively. It is crucial to
review the text or redefine the type of study to match how the data was collected
3. RESULTS
1°. In the following sentence the authors state:
During the study period, we treated 1267 patients with obstetric fistulas among whom 355 had
OVUF (28.0%).
QUESTION : Did the authors operate on all patients?
SUGGESTION : It is important to specify whether it was the authors who operated and, if
so, specify the skills of each operator. Also specify whether the operating methods have been
standardized.
2°. “All 355 OVUFs had trans-abdominal surgical repair, of which 346 (97.5%) were successful”
The terms “trans-abdominal”, “trans-vesical” and “extraperitoneal” should be explained and
used in the same context
Difficult to understand Table 3, especially the last line. The authors have to review and correct
to adapt the terms in the different parts of the work.
4. DISCUSSION
1°. “Youssef syndrome arises when the fistula is specifically located at the uterine isthmus.
Here, a unique uterine cervico-isthmic sphincter ensures that the fistula only allows flow from
the uterus to bladder [23].”
This sentence is in contradiction with the theory.
Important to re-read the theory on Youssef's triad and correct
5. CONCLUSION
1°. Cesarean sections were the sole etiology for OVUF among our patients and it was associated
with fetal death in over half of all cases.
This concept appears in the conclusion without any correspondence in the study results. The
authors do not discuss the role of cesarean section, nor other etiological factors. However, the
place of residence of the patients and the duration of the labor of delivery are mentioned. It
is important to note that Retrospective and descriptive studies are not intended to establish the
etiology of pathologies.
SUGGESTION : We suggest adding text describing the etiological factors and carrying out some
correlation analyzes to identify a certain association with the different factors mentioned.

Reviewer's report:
OBSTETRIC VESICO-UTERINE FISTULA IN THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF
THE CONGO: PREVALENCE, EPIDEMIOLOGICAL, CLINICAL, AND THERAPEUTIC
ASPECTS
Comments
Title – Good
Abstract – Acceptable
Introduction ¬
1. Uretero-vaginal fistula (reported in 0.5% of fistulas) cannot be among the commonest types
of urogenital fistulas as stated. This should be revised.
2. The role of a low uterine incision especially in Cesarean sections done in the late first stage
or in second stage of labour should be highlighted in the introduction.
3. Authors should also remark that vesico-uterine fistula may result from vaginal delivery after
previous Cesarean section(s).
Materials and Methods
1. This section requires a major revision.
2. The description of the design is confusing and does not appear retrospective.
3. It is not clear whether hospital records were studied or 355 patients were enrolled.
4. The source(s) of data and procedure for data collection were not clearly stated.
5. The diagnosis of vesico-uterine fistula was not differentiated from vesico-cervical fistula.
6. Leakage of urine was the only symptom mentioned. What about menouria?
7. It is unlikely the trigone of the bladder was identified/assessed during the examination under
anaesthesia via the vagina as stated by the authors.
8. There was no mention of use of any imaging/radiological/endoscopic technique to correctly
diagnose vesico-uterine fistula cases. Also, it is not likely cervical involvement can be excluded
without performing any of these procedures.
9. It would be educative to know what intra-operative or post-operative complications were
encountered and recorded in the treatment of these women.
10. The analysis of the data obtained was also not clear.
Results
1. The grid lines in the tables should be removed.
Discussion
1. The prevalence of vesico-uterine fistula in this study appears high because the diagnosis
was entirely clinical. Since radiological/endoscopic procedures (which would have improved
diagnostic accuracy) were not used, other fistulas would have erroneously been labelled ‘vesico-
uterine’. Authors to comment on this.
Conclusion
1. This is too long. Authors should please summarize.
Title: Obstetric vesico-uterine fistula in nine reference hospitals in the Democratic Republic of
the Congo: Prevalence, epidemiological, clinical, and therapeutic aspects
Version: 0 Date: 15 Mar 2024
Reviewer's report:
This is a descriptive report of vesicouterine fistulae within the DRC. The paper simply
presents how often the authors saw vesicouterine fistulae and their outcomes. There is no
statistical analysis of significance or comparison to other data sets nor novel conclusions. Stated
conclusions are that trans abdominal repair is effective and that teaching young doctors working
in remote areas how to perform safe cesarean is needed to reduce this type of fistula - conclusions
many previous papers have already submitted. Additionally, it states within the paper this is "the
very first study to describe this anatomoclinical entity of [vesicouterine] fistula in the DRC."
Unfortunately the authors failed to include a commonly cited article from 13 years ago from
Onsrud, et al, which describes well the cesarean related fistula formation in DRC. I found this
interesting as it directly correlates to the topic being presented and the primary author has cited
this article in prior works.
I believe this data set can be used to create a useful addition to the current medical literature,
but this paper would not be my recommendation. I would suggest the authors take the same data
set, but start anew and use proper statistical analysis to compare their current findings to those
of Onsrud's 2011 paper to show if there are improvements, similarities, or worsening outcomes
in the past 13 years, and perhaps develop new conclusions which may produce change to help
fight the preventable disease of obstetric fistula.
