Title: Long-term outcomes of Cable-Suspended Suture technique versus conventional suture
for anterior vaginal wall prolapse: a retrospective cohort study
Version: 1 Date: 18 Jan 2023
Reviewer's report:
To authors,
1. Abstract: Please very shortly explain the two methods.
2. Abstract conclusion: “The CSS showed better objective outcome than AC; however, subject
cure rate did not significantly differ between the two”.
3. Introduction: Please state whether the present two procedures were “mesh” surgery. You
repeatedly touch “mesh” and thus readers cannot understand whether these two are kind of mesh
surgery.
4. You state, “the exclusion criteria were: (1) patients who have uterine preservation”, and next
you state, “ Transvaginal hysterectomy (TVH) was performed for patients who required uterine
removal”. The former indicates that hysterectomy were performed in “all”, whereas the latter
indicates that it was not the case. Please clearly state the situation.
5. AC group received what? with or without hysterectomy? You only state “look at the previous
articles”. Please state the procedure.
6. Please make illustration to explain the CSS technique. The point of this study is “new surgical
method” and thus detailed easily-understandable explanation is necessary, which makes this
technique reproducible.
7. Which technique used was left to physicians preference, right? Then, let us assume the
followings. Dr A, a very experienced technician, performed CSS and Dr B, who is not so
experienced, performed AC. Then, the cure rate is not due to CSS vs AC but Dr A vs B. Please
explain how you allocated patients to AC or CSS.
8. Reference list is awkward and inconsistent.
9. English should be extensively edited.

Version: 2 Date: 08 Feb 2023
Reviewer's report:
The authors faithfully reacted to this reviewer's comments, of which incorporation into this
version has markedly improved the paper quality. There is a selection bias but this is inherent
to this type of study. I have nothing further to improve this paper.
Title: An Analysis of the Knowledge of Adults Aged Between 18-45 on HPV along with their
Attitudes and Beliefs about HPV Vaccine: The Cyprus Case
Version: 2 Date: 03 Jan 2023
Reviewer's report:
Abstract
• In the materials and methods section, research method should be added (descriptive and cross-
sectional). It should be added that the population includes both female and male participants.
Basic analysis methods should be added.
• The results section should be shortened.
• In the conclusion section, an explanation of the main result of the research should be added.
• For all this reasons, abstract should not exceed 350 words.
Introduction
The introduction provides information about the research.
Method
In the materials and methods section, research method should be added (descriptive and cross-
sectional). It should be added that the population includes both female and male participants.
correlational survey should be deleted. It is basically a descriptive study. The correlational part
is only about the correlation of the scales with each other. Since regression analysis is not
performed, it would be more accurate to remove the b expression. The study is a descriptive
cross-sectional study.
The information given in the Limitations of the Study section  is the inclusion criteria for
the study. This part refers to the limitations of the research such as data collection or sample
selection. The title should be revised or the title changed as inclusion criteria.
Discussion:
This section contains the research findings. findings should be removed. The implications of the
findings should be included in the discussion. Paragraphs 3 and 4 should be revised.
For example "Concerning the general knowledge questions on HPV vaccine: 42.87% of the
participants answered the statement “HPV vaccines will be mostly effective on the individuals
who have never had a sexual intercourse” as “Correct”; 29.87% of the participants answered the
statement “HPV vaccine is licensed for women aged between 30-45” as “Correct”; 27.53% of
the participants answered the statement “Both HPV vaccines available (Gardasil and Cervarix)
provide protection against genital warts and cervical cancer” as “Correct” and 34.57% of the
participants answered the statement “HPV vaccines will provide protection against all sexually
transmitted diseases” as “Correct”.
It can be arranged as "One third of the sample has insufficient information about HPV and HPV
vaccine.
Tables
Tables should be reviewed in terms of format.
Table titles should be reviewed in terms of the spelling of abbreviations. abbreviations are given
in parentheses. There is no need to specify it again in parentheses. It is recommended that scale
full names be deleted if abbreviations can be used. so the table headings will be shortened.
Title: An Analysis of the Knowledge of Adults Aged Between 18-45 on HPV along with their
Attitudes and Beliefs about HPV Vaccine: The Cyprus Case
Version: 2 Date: 03 Jan 2023
Reviewer's report:
The subject of the article is an important study in order to reflect the awareness of a society
about a common and preventable disease state.
Addressing a subject that has not been studied before adds originality.
The research design of the article is well structured and the variables are well defined.
Analysis and findings were given in accordance with the purpose of the research.
Written in a result-oriented manner.
I recommend shortening the findings, especially in the Table 4 narrative. Here, it would be
appropriate to write the findings in abbreviation to avoid the long speech of the article and not
to distract the readers.
Congratulations to the authors for their efforts.
Title: An Analysis of the Knowledge of Adults Aged Between 18-45 on HPV along with their
Attitudes and Beliefs about HPV Vaccine: The Cyprus Case
Version: 2 Date: 12 Jan 2023
Reviewer's report:
The manuscript is an observational study that is investigating the knowledge level of people
about HPV. Because the prevalence of HPV vaccination depends on the level of knowledge,
informing the community about HPV is crucial. This study is taking attention to the low level
of knowledge and investigation the dependant factors.
The manuscript needs minor revision in some aspects in order to being accepted.
* The sentences in general are very long and it makes the understanding of the issue difficult.
The sentences should be shortened and divided maybe, in the whole text.
*   The study design is declared as a correlational survey but a correlational survey needs
variables and there should be a hypothesis of a relationship between the variables. But the study
is designed as an observational study aiming to search the level of knowledge about HPV.
*  In the abstract it says: ‘The aim of this research is to analyze prior knowledge of adults…..’
What does prior knowledge mean? The questionnaires are performed just once and there is no
repeat. And also there is no informing of these population after the survey. Priority has no sense
accordingly.
* For Human Papillomavirus Knowledge Questionnaire (HPV-KQ) Waller and Demir; also for
HBMS-HPVV Kim and Guvenc should be added to the references.
* Limitation of the research should be revised. The exclusion criteria is not a limitation.
* Conclusion should be summarized as the suggestions can be transferred to the discussion.

Reviewer's report:
Comments to the authors:
First of all, I would like to mention that I have enjoyed  reviewing this manuscript because it
investigated a  good markers  in a  very common health problem all over the world using an
advanced scientific methods  and suggest a modulation in the currently used drugs, so it holds
a significant clinical correlation and improvement in patient management.
However, I have some suggestions and notes to improve the writing style throughout  this study
like:
1-the authors used a very long sentences, you should break theses long sentences into shorter
one to be readily understood by the readers.
2-the punctuation throughout the study need a revision through a proofreading program.
3-please add a space after each full stop.
4- When you enumerate many things separating them with comma but remove the comma before
“and”.
5- please be consistent using single word either naive or naïve.
6- There is a lot of used abbreviations that should be demonstrated to the reader and become well
understood. This can be achieved either by mentioning the full name first the use the abbreviation
or by doing a list of abbreviation.
7- Please use comma after however, further and so on throughout the paper.
8- in the Abstract
Put a space after “background:”
Remove comma before and
9- Result of the abstract
Put a space after :
line 5 contains  words which are fused together please separate them
10-introduction:
please change this reference no. 1  into a newer one :
Use endothelial cells instead of endothelium cells :
11- result :
would you rewrite the results in a more organized way to be understood by the readers by
separating each marker with single paragraph.
(You can use a new paragraph for TNF and another paragraph for MCP-1 and a new paragraph
for PAI-1)
12- Conclusion
In line 7 : Instead of pave the door, you can say either pave the road or open the door
13- I have a question regarding the number of the cases, why you choose 25 cases only?
If you would increase the number of cases to be more statistically significant.
14- Tables and figures :
please add the full name and list of abbreviation in each table and figure.
Best wishes

Reviewer's report:
Dear authours, thank you for your submission
The paper is written in clear language; the aim and scope of the paper are within the journal's
scope
The introduction and the methods are well presented; the results and the discussion well executed
well
.Yet we did notice that the authors had much repetition in the end, especially with subheadings
that are not within the journal's guidelines.
Kindly refer to the journal guidelines discussion, and conclusions are not in the sub-heading .You
may omit the subheadings [ limitation ;home tacking massage and clinical implication] and
include the contents at the end of your discussion. Finally insert your conclusion at the very end
to be followed by [Declarations:Ethics approval and consent to participate,…….etc.
You may revise the referred subheading as such ;
The small sample size is the limitation of our study. Since the inclusion and exclusion criteria
were tight, just one particular arm of OCPs was chosen, and the OCPs were administered for
the prescribed time. We had to abide closely by the inclusion and exclusion criteria outlined for
the study; otherwise, the number of subjects could have been increased.
Pharmacologic therapy is critical in managing patients with PCOS when lifestyle modifications
fail to achieve therapeutic goals; still, short-term use of OCP in women with PCOS suggests
worsening of already existing insulin resistance and glucose tolerance abnormalities, although
the effect seems mild. The significant fall in serum testosterone by OCP translates into many
clinical benefits, such as the regularization of menstrual cycles and improvement in acne and
other androgenic features. However, OCP use was associated with elevated coronary artery
disease risk factors such as total and LDL cholesterol levels. OCP use can alter the expression of
genes involved in inflammatory and coagulatory pathways, which can worsen the inflammatory
and coagulatory pathophysiology among PCOS women.
Our findings pave the road for well-designed, large-scale randomized, longitudinal molecular
trials with a cohort of PCOS women to create improved PCOS management options in clinical
practice that will be of immense public importance.

laparoscopic radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer in China, 2004-2016: A retrospective
cohort study
Version: 2 Date: 26 Dec 2022
Reviewer's report:
I read with great interest the manuscript, which falls within the aim of this Journal. In my honest
opinion, the topic is interesting enough to attract the readers’ attention. Nevertheless, the authors
should clarify some points and improve the discussion, as suggested below.
Authors should consider the following recommendations:
- Manuscript should be further revised in order to correct some typos and improve style.-Authors
should discuss robust pieces of evidence about the use of new strategies for cervical cancer
and pre-cancerous lesions screening and diagnosis, even using artificial intelligence and novel
biomarkers (authors may refer to: PMID: 36428831; PMID: 35742340).
- I recommend to add further details to discuss the ongoing debate about the use/avoidance of
minimally invasive surgery for cervical cancer, considering the available pieces of evidence and
the hystotype of the disease (authors may refer to: PMID: 36293758; PMID: 35549629).

Reviewer:  Tullio Golia D'auge
Reviewer's report:
I read with great interest the Manuscript titled "Effect of surgeon case volume on major surgical
complications for abdominal and laparoscopic radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer in China,
2004-2016: A retrospective cohort study" which falls within the aim of the Journal.
In my honest opinion, the topic is interesting enough to attract the readers’ attention.
Methodology is accurate and conclusions are supported by the data analysis. Nevertheless,
authors should clarify some point and improve the discussion 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.
-Typos errors must be corrected.
-The abstract should be revised and corrected (in particular the Background section) in order to
better summarize the contents of the manuscript.
- Discussions can be expanded and improved by citing relevant articles (I suggest authors to
read and insert in references the following article PMID: 35909005; 36141917).
-Accumulating evidence suggests that the management of ovarian cancer should be personalized
taking into account the performance status of the patient. It would be interesting to discuss this
point of paramount importance, referring to:

deserves the priority to be published after minor revisions.

Reviewer:  Mario Palumbo
Reviewer's report:
I was pleased to review this paper
The methodology used by the Authors is appropriate for the purpose of the article description.
The English language is fluid and well understood. Nevertheless, minor revision is needed.
For the abstract I found clear  the schematization of the content.
Regarding the introduction you can add this paper to deepen the topic.
DOI: 10.3390/ijms22042048.
As regards the paper’s structuring (methods/discussion): There is a good structure of the project,
with a great number of patients compared to the importance of the project.
Familiarity with obesity and a lack of family education for a sport how do they affect patients
with pcos?
Could health education to the normalization of psychotherapy already in younger patients help
patients with pcos? deepen with what you find in literature.
Read more by better explaining the choice of questionnaires you made for the structuring.
Results
- The statistical structure seems to me well done;
- Good subdivision into subparagraphs.
- Good to mention the limitations of the study.
Conclusion
Increase the number of references;
The data obtained are good with respect to the structuring of the work.

Dear authors,
I read with great interest the manuscript, which falls within the aim of this Journal. In my honest
opinion, the topic is interesting enough to attract the readers’ attention. Nevertheless, authors
should clarify some points and improve the discussion, as suggested below. Authors should
consider the following recommendations:
In my opinion you have to improve the paper refering in the text how endometriosis determine a

role from ovulation induction to menopausal disorders treatment especially in pts that are doing
an IVF TREATMENT IN INFERTILE PATHWAY and especially in pts that have tried all
the known tecnique in literature as  Injection of embryo culture supernatant to the endometrial
cavity,USUALLYin 50% cases BY male factor.
Sometimes PCOS could be the cause of Luteinised unruptured follicle syndrome.
Its also important to refer how in these pts also a vitamin D or supplementation is helpfull to
restoring ovulation too as well Alpha-lipoic acid
