"Appendiceal mucocele is a rare disease that causes obstructive dilatation of the appendix due to the intraluminal accumulation of mucin. Formerly, surgical resection is the only recommended treatment for appendiceal mucocele. The disadvantages of surgical procedures include a high degree of trauma, high cost, and possible serious complications caused by mucocele rupture. Colonoscopy is not only significant for diagnosis but also helps treat appendiceal mucocele. Here, we report a case of an appendiceal mucocele that was diagnosed and treated by endoscopy. We are grateful to the editors and reviewer for the time and effort spending on editing and reviewing our manuscript, which has helped us to largely improve the manuscript. BPG Publishing House has a very complete submission system and a short period of publishing. The reviewers' comments and suggestions are also very professional." [Collapse]

The paper is a structured review, describing different models of artificial intelligence that may be applied for the mentioned field and the use of AI in different diagnostic procedures. The subject of the paper is really actual and matters brought up by the authors are very important. There some comments that (I hope) may help authors in the future. First, it is too long to be mini-review. When read section by section, everything seems good. However, the manuscript left the feeling of lacking integrity. The section of AI CONCEPT AND TERMINOLOGY seems to be beyond the aim of the review. The title of the paper is somewhat misleading: detection of pancreatic cancer may include not only imaging techniques, but clinical features, blood and stool tests, etc. This could be solved with adding "imaging techniques" to the title. Moreover, "future perspectives" fell short of expectations, as only a few words are given. Conclusion section needs for revision as it does not reflect the core messages of the paper and is written in general words; I would suggest to give about 5-7 sentences, which would cover the conclusion by each section. Language and style polishing is required. " [Collapse]

Supported by: the Special Plan for Condition Construction of Gansu Provincial Scientific Research Institutes (Grants No. 20JR10RA432) Corresponding author: Deng-Hai Mi, MD, Gansu Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Lanzhou City, Gansu Province, China. mi.dh@outlook.com Abstract The present comment to the editor is related to Omar Elshaarawy et al. Outcomes of curative liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with cirrhosis. World J Gastroenterol 2021;13(5):424-439. Preoperative evaluation of liver reserve function in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with cirrhosis is critical, and there is no global consensus on how to evaluate it. Through retrospective analysis, Omar Elshaarawy et al. evaluated the influence of various traditional clinical indicators on liver failure and prognosis after hepatectomy in HCC patients with cirrhosis. We suggest that we should make an effort to look for new evaluation indicators such as indocyanine green retention rate at 15 min (ICG-R15). Keywords: ICG-R15, hepatectomy, Cirrhosis, Hepatocellular carcinoma Core tip: Improper hepatectomy can lead to liver failure and even death for HCC patients with cirrhosis. The major highlight of this comment is to stress the urgency of searching and validating new predictors before hepatectomy in HCC patients with cirrhosis. TO THE EDITOR In “Outcomes of curative liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with cirrhosis”, Omar Elshaarawy et al. assessed many traditional predictors for liver failure and prognosis in cirrhosis patients undergoing radical resection of HCC via univariate and multivariate analyses[1]. They found that the preoperative MELD score, tumor diameter, length of stay after radical resection of liver cancer, and hospital stay length are significant independent predictors of liver decompensation. Preoperative MELD score, different levels of PHLF, and postoperative HCC recurrence resection are significant independent predictors of prognosis. This research is valuable information and is helpful for doctors to improve the preoperative evaluation of HCC patients with cirrhosis. Although we appreciate this work very much, we consider that the article would have been far more interesting if the author had adopted the indocyanine green retention rate at 15 min (ICG-R15). For more details about this opinion, we are looking forward to evaluation and discussion with the authors. With the remarkable progress of surgical techniques, the methods of hepatectomy are becoming more and more radical. Improper surgery can lead to liver failure and even death. It is valuable for the surgeon to focus on verifying significant predictors of postoperative liver decompensation and prognosis. As we all know, The ICG-R15 is superior to many biochemical measures as a single assessment and has been widely used for the preoperative evaluation of hepatic functional reserve. However, the ICG-R15, a sensitive predictor of liver function reserve, was not mentioned in this study. ICG is selectively ingested by liver cells after injection, secreted by liver cells into bile, and rapidly excreted by the biliary tract[2]. ICG does not have any chemical reaction in the body and is only excreted from the liver, so that it can be a good assessment of liver function reserve. ICG-R15 can respond to the current liver function injury when there are no abnormalities in many conventional biochemical indicators. Thus it provides the necessary means for clinical prevention of surgical trauma, liver loss of blood, and other blows caused by acute liver failure. Recently, Kokudo, Takashi et al. noted that ICG R15 might enhance physicians' ability to stratify patients at risk for postoperative liver failure[3]. Furthermore, Wang, Yan-Yan et al. based on a comparative study of 185 patients, demonstrated that ICG-R15 is more reliable than the MELD score and Child-Pugh score in predicting hepatic functional reserve before hepatectomy[4]. Accurate evaluation of liver function reserve is very important for the correct treatment of HCC patients with cirrhosis. Correct preoperative evaluation is vital to patient recovery. Although no global consensus on the evaluation tool for the liver functional reserve is currently available, we feel that we should actively explore more novel and valuable predictors to adapt to the development of surgical techniques.

"Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the destruction of insulin producing cells in islets by autoreactive T cells β Cells, leading to high blood sugar levels and serious long-term complications. Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) specialized in the initiation of both immunogenic and tolerogenic response. DC antigen presentation is in the early stage of immune response，so it has a great effect on the control of disease development. The use of tolDC as alternative immunotherapy arises as a promising approach for T1D therapy. In this paper, the author makes a full and detailed review of tolDC induction and application in preclinical and clinical." [Collapse]

"Fecal incontinence (FI) causes severe psychological and financial burden, and extremely reduced the patients’ quality of life. The true incidence of FI may be underestimated. The present review gave a brief introduction of the etiology of FI in adults, and described several commonly used methods for the evaluation of FI. However, based on our clinical experience, we believe that some related information were not sufficiently discussed in this article. 1. Causes and risk factors FI is a multifactorial disease. In this section, the authors listed the main causes and risk factors of FI. We noticed that fecal impaction and impaired rectal compliance were not mentioned, yet they are also common causes of FI. It would be better to categorize the causes of FI according to the main mechanisms instead of simply make a list of all the related diseases. The header of Table 1 was missing, and the first row of content was incorrectly bolded. Besides, there were some language mistakes or typo's in Table 1. ‘Congenital/ Acquired neurological’ should be ‘Congenital/ Acquired neurological disease’, and ‘Ana cancer’ was probably a misspelling of “Anal cancer”. 2. History taking & physical examination In this part, the authors summarized the key informations that should be collected during history taking. In our perspective, there is still one thing to add. Since the stool form is an influencing factor of the continence mechanism that cannot be neglected, it would be better to assess the stool form with varified universal scales, e.g. Bristol stool form scale. What’s more, the severity of FI should also be quantified with patient reported scales. The content in this section was too general to be used as a ‘practical tool box’. A checklist which covers the main points of history taking will be more helpful in clinical practise. Japanese Practice Guidelines for Fecal Incontinence has given a great example in this aspect. 3. Diagnostic tools The authors gave a very comprehensive introduction of commonly used clinical diagnostic and assessment tools of FI, including HRAM, EAUS & MRI, as well as electromyography. As far as we know, defecography is an important method in assessing the morphological movement of rectum and the pelvic floor muscles. Unfortunately, in this section, the introduction of MRI defecography was too brief, and failed to reveal its role in disease diagnosis and surgical intervention sufficiently. Nevertheless, barium defecography was not mentioned. The last figure of this review showed a stepwise approach of faecal incontinence investigation, which may contribute to better clinical decision making. In conclusion, this review provided an comprehensive overview of FI, but the main weakness of it was the missing of some significant information and the lack of novelty. Space limitation may be responsible for this disadvantage. We sincerely looking forward to the authors’ future work.
