Title: Dichorionic triamniotic triplets after two blastocysts transfer underwent multifetal
pregnancy reduction: two case reports and literature review
Version: 1 Date: 24 Apr 2024
Reviewer's report:
Dear Authors,
Thank you for submitting the revised manuscript. The revisions have enhanced both quality
and clarity. The addition of reference no. 37, detailing your recent retrospective study, indeed
strengthens your arguments. However, the presentation of the two cases, while detailed, does
not appear to contribute new evidence to the area of fetal reduction in DCTA triplet pregnancies.
I would like to suggest a few targeted revisions to further refine the manuscript:
Line 75: You mention that transvaginal reduction is one of the most commonly used methods.
Could you please provide a citation to support this claim? Based on my understanding, this
method is relatively uncommon.
Line 92: The term "umbilical cord accidents" is used but not fully explained. Could you specify
whether this term includes complications other than entanglement, particularly in monoamniotic
pregnancies?
Line 320: The recommendation against performing fetal reduction of the MC-pair by
transabdominal injection of KCl in the first trimester is presented as being due to the abundance
of communicating vessels in the placenta. This recommendation is unclear. If the intention is
to reduce both fetuses in the MC-pair, it conflicts with established studies suggesting that the
best outcomes are associated with early fetal reduction, typically before 14 weeks of gestation.
Could you please clarify or elaborate on your rationale?
Line 365: Could you clarify what is meant by "selective fetal position reduction"?
Title: Dichorionic triamniotic triplets after two blastocysts transfer underwent multifetal
pregnancy reduction: two case reports and literature review
Version: 3 Date: 03 Jun 2024
Reviewer's report:
This is an interesting case report regarding reducing DCTA triplets into DCDA twin pregnancies.
With two minor opinions.
1. Line 57: Monochorionic twin (MCT) pregnancies are at high risk of complications for
both the mother and the fetus. Common perinatal complications include preterm birth, fetal
malformations, selective intrauterine growth restriction (SIGR), TTTS, and perinatal death.
Maternal complications that are commonly observed include high blood pressure during
pregnancy, miscarriage, placental abruption, and postpartum hemorrhage[4, 5].    SIGR and
TTTS are unique complications for MCT but high blood pressure during pregnancy, miscarriage,
placental abruption, and postpartum hemorrhage are not exceptional for MCT compared with
dichorionic twins. So, I suggest only describing the high-risk fetal complications.
2. line 95: DCTA triplet pregnancies has been reported to be 0.004%[23]. MCT pregnancies are
known to have a high risk of maternal and fetal complications including miscarriage, preterm
birth, low birth weight, TTTS, umbilical cord accident (i.e., umbilical cord entanglement).
Since DCTA triplets with three amniotic sacs, I do not understand why the umbilical cord
entanglement as a cord accident be listed here.
Title: The minimally invasive resection of port-site metastasis of ovarian cancer after
laparoscopy with cutaneous integrity: a case report and literature review
Version: 2 Date: 12 Aug 2024
Reviewer's report:
Comments
1. Authors need to add updated information in their manuscript
2. I think there is some information missing in following line under Case presentation section:
“A 66-year-old patient with a history of high-grade serous ovarian adenocarcinoma Federation
International of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) IIA presented with two masses in the lower
abdominal wall, which were diagnosed as metastatic carcinoma. “
3. The statement "there is no report specified about the minimally resection of the port site
resection after gynecological malignancy" is somewhat ambiguous. Clarify whether this means
there's a lack of research or whether existing reports do not address the specific method used
in this case.
4. The imaging findings are briefly mentioned. Providing more detailed information on the
nature of these findings (e.g., size, appearance, characteristics of the masses) would add depth
to the case presentation.
5. The prognosis associated with port-site metastasis is mentioned as uncertain. Expanding
this discussion with references to current research and differing viewpoints would enrich the
analysis.

Reviewer:  Antonio Bandala-Jacques
Reviewer's report:
Dear authors. thank you for submitting your revised manuscript
I believe that the edits you made have significantly improved your manuscript
May I offer the following comments:
A) I think the title of your manuscript would improve if you omit the initial "The", but this is
just as suggestion
B) The background has significantly improved - I see no further issues
C) In the discussion "Conventionally, the best treatment for localized metastasis is surgical
resection, supported by chemotherapy [18]. " I don't understand the use of the word 'supported'
here
D) "The studies about PSM in recent 10 years was included in Table 1[10,19,20,21]."
Please revise this sentence. May I suggest "Studies about PSM in recent 10 years are included
in Table 1[10,19,20,21]."
E) There is a typo in ". Furthermore, there is still ongoing debate regarding whether to remove
PSM after diagnostic laparocopy. "
F) I would add a final concluding sentence,  as your current final sentence appears to still be
discussing literature (ref. 20) instead of being a true conclusion
Title: Experiences of menopausal transition among populations exposed to chronic psychosocial
stress in the United States: a scoping review
Version: 2 Date: 23 Jun 2024
Reviewer:  Myra S. Hunter
Reviewer's report:
This is a well written and conducted scoping review of the experiences of menopause
amongst women in the US who had been exposed to chronic psychosocial stress. The possible
explanations for associations between psychosocial stress and menopause were an additional
research question.
Despite the differing nature of the final 15 studies included in the reviews - which comprised
cohort, cross-sectional and qualitative studies - the results were clear in showing that
socioeconomic status  was a significant factor influencing menopausal experiences, with lower
incomes, higher perceived stress, and negative attitudes towards menopause associated with
increased psychological and somatic symptoms and early-onset menopause. Race/ethnicity,
partner violence, childhood adversity and chronic stress were also associated with severity of
menopausal symptoms.
The results are discussed in the context of intersectionality and life course theories, which may
usefully encourage future researchers to draw on these frameworks.
This is an important area of research and while much more work is need this review draws
attention to key factors that impact on women's experience of menopause.  The Adverse
Childhood Experience measure can be given retrospectively and is associated with chronic stress
and  its impact on long term health conditions so this could be a way that future research could
further examine these associated, particularly CHD.
Title: Experiences of menopausal transition among populations exposed to chronic psychosocial
stress in the United States: a scoping review
Version: 2 Date: 04 Jul 2024
Reviewer's report:
Dear Authors
This is an engaging and relevant review. The study was communicated clearly.
The following are recommendations to improve your manuscript.
The goal and purpose of your paper were to: "The purpose of this review is to carefully analyze
and collect available information on how menopause is experienced by individuals in the United
States who are exposed to chronic psychosocial stress. The goal is to gain a better understanding
of this relationship, identify areas where knowledge is lacking, and suggest future research
directions that can improve healthcare for women experiencing menopause while dealing with
chronic stress."
Please explain your rationale for including premenopausal women.
Results section: it would be valuable to add a table or diagram synthesizing the data that best
conveys the psychosocial findings, in addition to the summary table.
For instance, synthesizing the type of psychosocial stressors (violence, lower ses, homelessness
etc.) and linking it to the menopause symptoms would help to see the data from a different angle.
A hypothetical example could be: Lower SES is linked to depression in 9 out of 15 articles.

Title: Concurrent Acute Cystitis, Pancolitis, and Tubo-Ovarian Abscess Following
Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy: A Case Report
Version: 1 Date: 03 Aug 2024
Reviewer's report:
Dear authors,
The paper describes a case of post surgical pelvic multiorgan infections.
Background does not introduce the reader to the uniqueness of what he is about to read. There
is also a lack of bibliographical references for what is stated. I therefore recommend adding a
few hints as to which variants are rare in this clinical condition.
“transmission primarily occurs through the lymphatic and hematologic routes”: a reference is
missing.
“colicky” should be the noun, not the adjective. So the sentence is incomplete.
“Six months prior, she underwent a laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy due to the presence of a
left ovarian cystadenofibroma due to a two-year-long and persistent mild nausea, anorexia, and
occasional dizziness, with no associated menstrual irregularities.” English language is incorrect.
The term “due” is repeated in the same sentence and the grammar confounding.
What does it means “soft-lax”?
“One week later, she was discharged and was instructed in regards to follow-up appointments
These follow-ups were deemed crucial for monitoring her recovery and ensuring the
effectiveness of the treatment regimen.”   Punctuation is missed.
Discussion section must be separated from the conclusion, as it is always in literary papers.
The article is poorly written both in form, language and above all in content. It lacks a textual
structure befitting a scientific article. It refers to the guidelines that all scientific journals suggest
to follow when writing a case report.
The rarity of the case in the authors' opinion is not apparent from the text.
Has conservative management been decisive?
I suggest to add other references such as: PMID: 23007248
The article lacks a leading logical link. I would recommend reviewing the meritorious points
and possibly rewriting it by improving the language.

Dear Authors and Editor,
Thank you to allow me to review this interesting case report. The manuscript needs the revisions
of English form especially in the introduction and discussion section. In some points there are
some typos. It isn't report in the manuscript the unicity  of the case report and this should be
clarified. Furthermore, the discussion section should be expanded.

Title: Association between A Body Shape Index and Female Infertility: A Cross-Sectional Study
Version: 1 Date: 04 Aug 2024
Reviewer's report:
I am honored to have the opportunity to read this manuscript, which primarily explores the
potential relationship between ABSI and infertility
1.General
The data analysis of the article may be problematic and needs to be re-examined with rigour.
The manuscript should be revised by a native speaker to eliminate grammatical and tense errors.
2.Line 106#Please provide the ethics number
3.Line 116#“Infertility is measured through self-reported Reproductive Health Questionnaires
for each woman: "Have you ever tried to conceive a child for at least one year without getting
pregnant?" Women who answer "yes" are considered to have infertility.
There should be "refused" or "don't know" responses,why not mentioned? How do you deal
with these data?
5.Line 112#The natural pregnancy rate of women decreases significantly after the age of 45,
and the probability of menopause, endocrine and metabolic diseases, and obesity may increase
in women after the age of 45, which can lead to biased research results. It is recommended that
the age range be between 20-45 years old

Title: Association between A Body Shape Index and Female Infertility: A Cross-Sectional Study
Version: 1 Date: 12 Aug 2024
Reviewer's report:
The paper by Yang et al. is an interesting cross-sectional study aimed to assess the relationship
between body shape index and infertility in female population. The study is well done. However,
in order to improve its clinical valence, I suggest to study also BMI and to define the ROC
value for both variables. Both variables should be compared for predictive positive and negative
values. Finally, the study should provide the risk of infertility using that specific cut-off.
In the introduction of the abstract section and of the full text the “body shape index” should be
better explained reporting its other evidence-based and potential uses in medicine.
The authors should clarify that the current is a semiquantitative study. In fact, the evaluation of
the infertility was performed with simple questions.
Please detail as the other covariates were captured.
It’s a pity that a specific evaluation of the causes of infertility was not performed. However,
it can be suggested / hypothesized (considering the relationship been BMI and visceral fat and
ovulatory function) that a lot of these patients were affected by PCOS. I suggest discussing
this issue. I also suggest reading and citing the following comprehensive reviews about the
overall relationship between PCOS and infertility (doi: 10.1093/humrep/deab181) and the lack
of strong evidence to improve endometrial quality in PCOS with weight loss (doi: 10.1016/
j.rbmo.2024.104381). In PCOS (as model of infertility related to body fat), body shape
index may influence oocytes (doi: 10.1016/j.tem.2016.11.008) and endometrium (doi: 10.1093/
humupd/dmaa051) quality.
Title: Association between weight-adjusted waist index and overactive bladder syndrome
among adult women in the United States: a cross-sectional study
Version: 2 Date: 24 Jul 2024
Reviewer's report:
The authors present their findings from an analysis of the NHANES database on the association
between weight-adjusted waist circumference and overactive bladder symptoms. This is an
interesting analysis and adds to the growing body of literature supporting the association
between obesity and overactive bladder.
Abstract:
Results – Model 2 can be referred to simply as “model 2”. Generally, we do not consider models
to be “partially adjusted”.
Introduction:
Given the novelty of the weight-adjusted waist circumference, it would be helpful to include
more background on this metric. How was it developed? Is increased WWI associated with other
conditions? How does it function better than BMI in predicting certain conditions? Why was
this metric chosen/what is the hypothesis by which this metric might impact OAB symptoms
differently/better predict these symptoms than BMI alone?
Materials/Methods:
What is the rationale for categorizing WWI? Why not just interpret it as a continuous variable?
Particularly since the categorization of this variable is not described in the Introduction or
Discussion.
Has the validity of the Overactive Bladder Symptom Score when applied to data in NHANES
been previously tested or published?
Lines  109 and 111: “income” and “poverty” should be capitalized in the definition of RIP. Once
defined, RIP can be used rather than spelling it out (line 111).
Lines 114-115: part of this sentence is repeated and should be deleted.
Lines 125-126: what is the rationale for the inclusion of model 2?
Lines 129-133: again, what is the rationalization for analyzing WWI as a categorical variable?
It is not clear that the tertiles are meaningful.
Results:
The prevalence of OAB is not actually described in the body of the manuscript, only the abstract.
It should be included in the results.
Discussion:
Paragraph 1 could be better organized. The discussion of the subgroup analysis at the end of
this paragraph is rushed with little delineation between the stroke and age discussion. If these
findings are particularly important, then revision of this paragraph is necessary.
Line 218: obesity is generally associated with increased (not decreased) systemic estrogen levels
due to the presence of aromatase in adipose tissue. This argument is confusing.
Lines 231-233: This conclusion is overstated. This analysis presents findings on the association
between WWI and OAB but does not explore or present anything about changes in body weight
and associated changes in OAB. This sentence should be removed.
Figure 1:
Is “PIR” in the 2nd exclusion box the same as “RIP” in the body of the manuscript? If so, please
revise for consistency. If not, please define the abbreviation at first use.

Title: Association between weight-adjusted waist index and overactive bladder syndrome
among adult women in the United States: a cross-sectional study
Version: 2 Date: 29 Jul 2024
Reviewer's report:
The authors investigated the association between weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) levels and
overactive bladder (OAB). This is an interesting study as it first utilized WWI as independent
predictor for OAB, and suggesting weight loss (especially belly fat) to OAB patients might
improve their symptoms in clinical practices.
1) There is no Figure 2 in current manuscript. Only manuscript file with three tables and Figure 1
is available in current review. Please recheck the mandatory files before submitting the revision.
2) It seems that Nephrology Urology Questionnaire was used in NHANES database, not OAB.
The OABSS questionnaire consists of four questions; Q1 (daytime frequency), Q2 (nocturia),
Q3 (urgency), Q4 (urgency urinary incontinence). Strictly, diagnosis of OAB requires presence
of urgency. In clinical practice, OAB can be diagnosed if total score is greater than or equal
to 3 ‘and’ score for question number 3 is greater than or equal to 2. Was only total score
available in NHANES database? If not, please apply the strict OAB definition or otherwise state
the limitation in DISCUSSION section. Moreover, please specify how Nephrology Urology
Questionnaire was quantified into OABSS.
3) How were cut-off values for trichotomy categorization (6.96 and 8.07) derived? Please
specify.
4) Neurogenic OAB should be excluded from study population. If there is any available data
regarding neurological history except for stroke, such population should be excluded, not
adjusted.
5) Diabetes can cause diabetic cystopathy. In early phase, patients might experience OAB and
in terminal phase, patients might suffer from detrusor underactivity (DUA). The prevalence of
diabetes which is crucially related to OAB symptoms significantly differs between OAB and
non-OAB group. I guess we only need additional one covariate adjustment model which adjust
all possible variables that differs significantly after excluding neurogenic population.
6) It seems that there was some positive correlation with age and stroke in subgroup analysis.
However, the authors stated in the abstract that ‘The association remained stable in all subgroups
except age and stroke subgroups.’. This statement is contradictory and confusing.
Title: Association between weight-adjusted waist index and overactive bladder syndrome
among adult women in the United States: a cross-sectional study
Version: 2 Date: 02 Aug 2024
Reviewer's report:
I read with great interest the Manuscript titled “Association between weight-adjusted waist index
and overactive bladder syndrome among adult women in the United States: a cross-sectional
study“.  In my opinion, this topic analyzed is interesting enough to attract readers’ attention.
Although the manuscript can be considered already of good quality, I would suggest to take into
account the following recommendations:
- I suggest a round of language revision, in order to correct few typos and improve readability.
- The authors, it would be interesting to add few lines about other possible treatments for patients
affected of symptoms analyzed in this study, i.e. usefulness of ospemifene.
I would be glad if the authors discuss this important point, referring to PMID: 28490209.
- Considering the results of this study, It would be interesting to discuss recent evidence about
the state of art and medical treatment of bladder symptoms. I would be glad if the authors discuss
this important point, referring to PMID: 32744453
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.

report and literature review
Version: 0 Date: 02 Apr 2023
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.
Some points that I would like to clarify to make the work perfect and ready for publication:
• Are there any diagnostic signs in the literature (ultrasound or MRI) that can help make an early
diagnosis?
• Have there been cases diagnosed after hysteroscopic biopsy?
• Learn more about the markers that can help in the correct diagnosis with other ideas from the
literature.
Conclusion
Increase the number of references;
Well-structured tables and images

Reviewer's report:
In my opinion, the analyzed topic is interesting enough to attract the readers’ attention. I think
that the abstract of this article is very clear and well structured.
In my opinion, the discussion could be studied in depth and extended. Maybe, it could be useful
the evaluation of all the newest insights of endometrial cancer in order to complete the topic
analyzed. In particular, I suggest these articles to get deeper in the topic: PMID: 36833105,
PMID: 36979434, PMID: 36983243. All the figures al interesting.
Because of these reasons, the article should be revised and completed. Considered all these
points, I think it could be of interest for the readers and, in my opinion, it deserves the priority
to be published after minor revisions.
