Title: Exposure to family planning messages on social media and its association with maternal
healthcare services in Mauritania
Version: 0 Date: 27 Nov 2023
Reviewer's report:
I would like to first congratulate the authors on their work on this manuscript and analysis. The
topic is very relevant to global health priorities and the overall premise of the analysis is solid.
Please see my suggestions below – all things for you to consider to make your analysis stronger,
but not necessarily critical necessary modifications.
Content comments:
The WHO currently recommends 8 ANC visits. I understand that even reaching the ANC4
threshold is a challenge, but you could consider including ANC8 as an outcome variable if the
data is available to you, as a bit of an aspirational target.
Another covariate you could have included in your analysis would be whether the household
owns a mobile phone or not – this could be an important mediator. I assume that there would be
strong correlation with belonging to a higher wealth quintile, so perhaps the variability is already
captured in what you presented here, but this might be something interesting to double check.
Similarly, including distance to nearest health facility in your analysis – despite being an
imperfect measure of accessibility – could also provide some insight on the influence of
accessibility. Social media messaging exposure might indeed be correlated with certain antenatal
care behaviour, but the role of accessibility cannot be understated.
For “The lower odds of early timing of ANC among women who wanted their last child later
explains that women who plan to have more children potentially being less motivated to seek
ANC early.”, I’m not sure I follow the logic. Is there evidence that supports this sentence and/
or that would explain this relationship? The relationship between personal motivation to seek
ANC and the intention to have more children seems like it might be missing a few steps.
Presentation comments:
For the abstract: Mauritania is categorized as a low-income country, not a lower-middle-income
country.
Double check the duplicate have/has in “In recent years, there have has been a growth […]”
Check grammar in “Previously, a study on Malawi we found a positive association on media
communication regarding family planning on the uptake of maternal healthcare services”.
Check grammar in “In Sierra Leone, exposure to family planning messages on radio and mobile
phones were found to have positive associations with using modern contraceptives”.
Check grammar in “The positive association between wealth index and ANC choosing health
facility delivery reflects the role of socioeconomic status in accessing healthcare services”
Title: Exposure to family planning messages on social media and its association with maternal
healthcare services in Mauritania
Version: 0 Date: 01 Dec 2023
Reviewer's report:
The authors came up with an interesting concept of reading family planning (FP) message on
social media and its effect (association) on: a) timing of ANC, b) adequate ANC and c) facility
delivery. Although the study concluded that reading FP messages on social media is associated
with adequate ANC use and facility delivery, the absence of a theory of association weakens the
findings. For more explanations, I add a few examples:
A absurd storyline:
- The background section never attempted to explain a theory of association with the exposure
to FP messages in social media and utilization of maternal health care (a, b, and c above). In
contrast, the whole section describes a lot on different context and aspects of maternal health
care, which are barely related to FP, FP message exposure on social media, and plausibility of
exposure to FP message on social media to improve maternal health care utilization.
- The authors, all on a sudden, jumped into the concept of association with the exposure to
FP messages in social media and utilization of maternal health care by referring three articles.
However, none of the articles provides evidence that FP exposure on social media helps improve
maternal health care utilization.
Method
- The main explanatory variable of this study was reading FP messages on social media. The
authors did not mention other essential information like:
o Whether she read the messages during or before delivery, how long before the pregnancy, etc.
o The participant (woman who delivered in the last five years) might have read such messages
on social media after delivery.
o Many others…
Unclear first table
- As a reader, I would first like to see the “% of timely ANC among”, “% of 4+ ANC”, and “%
of facility delivery” among those who read FP message on social media and those who did not
read FP messages on social media. Although the authors described that, I did not understand
how they extracted that information from Table 1.
Because of the above limitations (along with other that I haven’t explained), the findings do not
make much sense. Therefore, I skip commenting on the discussion.

healthcare services in Mauritania

Reviewer:  M. Moinuddin Haider
Reviewer's report:
Overall comment
- The theory of change/association is still unclear to me, I mean, the pathway of the exposure to
FP messages on social media influencing the utilization of maternal health care. It needs more
input with substantial evidence and strong description on pathways.
- Who had exposure to FP messages on social media might have exposure to maternal health
care message (a potential confounder). The study analysis does not incorporate it. It should be
included in the regression analysis if the data are available, else mention the limitations.
Other comments
Authors review
- Exposure to family planning messages on social media can significantly influence the
utilization of maternal healthcare services by increasing awareness and motivation.
My response
- No reference favoring the statement
Authors review
- The Health Belief Model (HBM) suggests that increased awareness through social media
can enhance perceived benefits and reduce perceived barriers, leading to better health
outcomes. Therefore, understanding the association between social media exposure and maternal
healthcare service utilization is vital for improving maternal and child health.
My response
- No reference for the HBM model
- “increased awareness through social media can enhance perceived benefits and reduce
perceived barriers, leading to better health outcomes” – increased awareness about what through
social media can enhance perceived benefits and reduce perceived barriers, leading to better
health outcomes. Is it family planning? – not clear. Need reference.
- “Therefore, understanding the association between social media exposure and maternal
healthcare service utilization is vital for improving maternal and child health.” – understanding
the association between social media exposure to what content?

Title: Single-stage resection of Uterine Fibroids and intravascular leiomyomatosis: A Case
Report
Version: 1 Date: 06 Aug 2024
Reviewer:  Antonio Bandala-Jacques
Reviewer's report:
Dear authors. After reviewing your manuscript I have the following comments:
BACKGROUND:
A) In your sentence "When identifying the existence of intracardiac tumors in patients afflicted
with UFs, it is imperative to recognize the UFs as the source of the cardiac tumor.", I would
briefly specify why
B) Same for the sentence "It is a rare benign tumor, and the mechanism is currently unclear.
Timely selection of appropriate surgical plans and timing is crucial". Why is this?
CASE PRESENTATION
C) I would rephrase "four years ago " to "four years prior to our current examination" or
something similar.
D) The sentence ".Cardiac ultrasound disclosed a mass in the right atrium (RA), while enhanced
computed tomography (CT) of the chest and abdomen revealed filling defects in the RA, inferior
vena cava (IVC), as well as right iliac vein, indicated potential invasion of UFs into the right
iliac vein, extending into the RA via the IVC (Figure 1). " does not make grammatical sense.
In 'indicated potential invasion', does this refer to the combination of the CT findings? I would
maybe split this into two sentences for clarity
E) The text switched between using past and present tense often, I would be consistent
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION
F) In "Both methods are less likely to cause serious complications and patient mortality ", as
compared to what?
G) Overall, I see nothing wrong methodologically with the case report, and the authors make
a meaningful discussion of one vs. two-step surgery for this rare malignancy. My only general
recommendation is language editing

Reviewer's report:
Thank you for contribution of an interesting case in the literature. However, the topic is not
novel. More than 400 cases have been reported in the literature. I have some corrections:
-Abstract should be written. “A 47-year-old woman developed heart failure.” Please add the
information such as concomitant diseases, risk factors (multiple uterine fibroids). Conclusion
should be carefully given. The case report could not give a strong evidence for a safe method.
Please rewrite.
-Background should be expanded with the references.
-Diagnosis and management flowchart should be described.
-Serum bilan and coagulation profile should be provided.
-Intraoperative estimated blood loss should be added.
-Technique concerning intravascular leiomyomatosis resection should be described in more
detailed.
-Post-surgery therapy should be provided including antibiotics and anticoagulant treatments.
-Other etiologies relating to cardiorespiratory collapse should be discussed such as pulmonary
embolism in pregnant and non-pregnant women. Vuong ADB, Pham TH, Bui VH, et al.

-Hysterectomy in this case should be reconsidered since the evidence remains limited.
-Histopathological results should be added with images.
-Multidisciplinary team must be assessed in this case. Gwacham NI, Manyam M, Fitzsimmons

-A table of similar cases should be summarized in the last-5 or 10 years.
-Full-word should be written for abbreviation word at the beginning of each section. For
example: “UFs” in discussion part.
-References should be updated, 6 references are too old.

-English editing is strongly required. For example: Uterine fibroids (UFs) are among the
most prevalent tumors in the female reproductive tract, But developing into intravascular
leiomyomatosis (IVL) is rare. Some terms are difficult to understand. For example: “akin to
fibroid”.

Reviewer's report:
Dear authors,
Thank you for your revision.
In previous review report, I suggest the authors added  a table including the  clinic characteristics,
imaging features, and outcomes of similar cases in the past 5-year of literature.
The current table includes simply the number of cases. Thus, the information is very limited.
Please delete it or revise again.
After this correction, the paper must be more improved.

Reviewer:  Antonio Bandala-Jacques
Reviewer's report:
Dear authors. Thank you for submitting your revised manuscript.
Overall, I believe that the modifications made to the manuscript have significantly improved it.
I only see a couple of minor style issues:
A)  It's common for us to sometimes capitalize diseases "Uterine Fibroids", but this is not
required by style guidelines
B) There's also a capitalized "They" after a comma, in the case description
C) "1900 s" should be a single word
D I believe a word is missing after also, in "It is also evaluating the risk of tumor detachment
and embolism within the circulatory system to ensure a favorable postoperative prognosis. "
Aside from these issues, I believe the manuscript has significantly improved, and see no issues
in the description of the case management or in the discussion

Reviewer's report:
Dear authors,
Thank you for your second round of revision.
The authors need to ensure the accuracy of data in Table 1 since  the table summarized only the
total number of cases in the past-5-year literature without cited references.
If the authors would like to present the data following the frequency (percentage), mean and
standard  deviation or median and interquatile percentile IQR 1-3. The study design become
a systematic review. The more simple thing is the study summarized some cases with similar
characteristics to the present case in the past-5-year of literature. The authors should reflect to
this suggestion since the current table 1 without references is unacceptable.

Reviewer:  Phuc Nhon Nguyen
Reviewer's report:
Dear authors,
Thank you for your revision. After reading again your paper, I found that the paper remains
some unclarified concerns:
-Conclusion in abstract is very common. It should be more detailed, reflecting the novel findings
of the present study.
-Please use “straight arrow vector” instead of “zigzag arrow vector”. The current algorithm is
likely complicated.
-Please provide the indicator/marker for Fig 2C.
-The legend of Fig 2D must be more concise with the markers inside the photo, similar to Fig 3B.
-Regarding Table 1: Please add the percentage (%) besides of the number cases for alive/
recurrence/unknown rate. Please add the statistical test for p-value instead of mention in
the caption of table. I recognize some data (parity, gravida) may be not satisfactory for
normal distribution. Thus, the median IQR (1-3) and Nonparametric statistics (Mann–Whitney
test/ Wilcoxon rank-sum test, or Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney test) should be used instead of
Independent Sample-t-test. If the present of the study is not clarified. The authors could replace
Table 1 by Supplementary Table 1. The table 1 should be deleted.
-In discussion. Please expand the result findings in Table 1. “The differences in diagnosis and
treatment history among patients with different prognoses were obtained through independent
sample t-test and chi square test (Table 1).” This sentence does not add the novel thing. Please
mention age, parity, follow-up time, and rate of recurrence/alive.

Title: Development and External Validation of Clinical Predictive Model for Stress Urinary
Incontinence in Chinese women : A Multicenter Retrospective Study
Version: 1 Date: 23 Aug 2024
Reviewer's report:
I read with great interest the Manuscript titled “Development and External Validation of
Clinical Predictive Model for Stress Urinary Incontinence in Chinese women : A Multicenter
Retrospective Study “.
Although the manuscript can be considered already of good quality, I would suggest the
following recommendations:
- I suggest a round of language revision, in order to correct few typos and improve readability.
- It would be interesting to add few lines about current evidence about this topic and various
possible therapeutic strategies for stress urinary incontinence and extending the discussion about
sexual function and quality of life of these patients. In particular, I suggest this article to get
deeper in the topic PMID: 30324854
and 28490209.
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: Combining Demographic Data and Transvaginal Ultrasonography: A Predictive Model
for Endometrial Carcinoma in Postmenopausal Patients
Version: 0 Date: 20 Jan 2024
Reviewer's report:
We congratulate the authors for studying an integrative  Demographic and Transvaginal
Ultrasonography Model for Accurate Prediction of Endometrial Carcinoma.
However, we would like to suggest the following edits:
- the whole manuscript needs an English language review by a native English speaker mainly
syntax and grammar. The manuscript lines are not numbered and the edits are numerous, it is
why we could not cite them. We advise to number the lines for better referencing
- stating ‘endometrial carcinoma malignancy’ throughout the draft is redundant. Endometrial
carcinoma is a malignancy. Do the author mean the risk of malignancy in their model?
- all the patient were post menopausal, this is not reflected in the title. Do the author extrapolate
their findings to the non menopausal women?
- Table 1 title should be reviewed
- Table 1 & 2 might be combined?
- Reference 9 to be corrected

Reviewer's report:
I read with great interest your paper regarding endometrial cancer. It is well written and
enlightening. However i have some comments:
1. Materials and  methods, paragraph 2: all patients were diagnosed with endometrial cancer.
Only 1/3 was diagnosed with endometrial cancer, please rephrase
2. Since only about 150 patients presented with vaginal bleeding, why did the rest come to the
hospital? After routine examination of  their gynaecologist? Please clarify
3. Why did you include the atypical hyperplasia to the cancer cases? There is in a lot of cases
a coexistence between atypical hyperplasia and cancer, but to my knowledge this happens in
about 35%.

Version: 2 Date: 28 Jul 2024
Reviewer's report:
We congratulate the authors for their research work and for investigating for investigating a
novel model to predict endometrial carcinoma.
We would like to suggest the following edits:
Line 33: replace "symptoms" by symptom
Line 70: replace "predictive capability" by prediction
Line 97: Are the authors sure about the 170 000 new cases yearly worldwide in 2023? According
to the 2022 there are around  450 000.
Line 101: replace "begins" by develops
Line 112: do the author mean by "malignancy-risk" the aggressivity of the tumor?
Line 272: What is the bias that result from a subjective assessment of the investigator?
Line 421: The authors report having over the 119 cases, 45 were accurately predicted as
malignant, and 68 were correctly identified as benign.  How can they explain that they did not
have a accuracy of 100 %?
Line 689: Is reference 14 essential to the manuscript?
Line 703: Reference 15 refers to atypical ductal hyperplasia in the breast. Can the authors
elaborate more on this citation?
Line 721: References 19 to 21  & 23 seem irrelevant to the draft. Can the author check them
please?

- the 2 inclusion criteria are insufficient to  assess the high risk patients with endometrial
neoplasia.
- In the text apear some  signs .. please revise your manuscript
- The limitation of your manuscript should be highlighted in the discussion section.
- English and punctuation edits are required
