The following corrections should be made;
1.The articles published before 1990 were included in the references (Ref
21. Pezim M et al., and Ref. 32 Bacon H et al.).
Thanks. Reference 21 has been replaced by the following:
21.
Cirocchi R, Trastulli S, Farinella E, Desiderio J, Vettoretto N, Parisi A, et al. High tie
versus low tie of the inferior mesenteric artery in colorectal cancer: a RCT is needed. Surgical
oncology. 2012;21(3):e111-e23.
And reference 34 has been replaced by the following;
Bonnet S, Berger A, Hentati N, Abid B, Chevallier J-M, Wind P, et al. High tie versus
low tie vascular ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery in colorectal cancer surgery:
impact on the gain in colon length and implications on the feasibility of anastomoses.
Diseases of the Colon & Rectum. 2012;55(5):515-21.
2.In b 3.3 Lymph node yieldb , the authors cited a study by Chin et al.
as Ref 31, however, in the reference section the Ref. 31 is replaced by
Ob Connell JB et al. Subsequent corrections should be made when Ref.31 and
Ref.34 appear in the main text.
Thanks. Reference 33 belongs to O’Connell et al. I have corrected in the text.
Reference 34 is corrected as it belongs to Bonnet et al.
3.In Methods, the authors described that only clinical studies were included
and review and meta-analysis were excluded. However, in the manuscript
included several review articles (Ref.19 Titu L et al., Ref 29 Hida J-I et
al., and Ref.40 Lange MM et al.). In the introduction or the discussion,
review articles are generally used. In the Results, citation of the review
articles is against the authors methods?
The introduction of manuscript contains 23 references, so reference 19 is very well
within the introduction.
Hida J-I et is reference 31 and now its reference no 27. This has been replaced by
clinical study;
Kanemitsu Y, Hirai T, Komori K, Kato T. Survival benefit of high ligation of the
inferior mesenteric artery in sigmoid colon or rectal cancer surgery. British journal of
surgery. 2006;93(5):609-15.
Lange MM et al is reference 41 and has been replaced by the following clinical study;
Yasuda K, Kawai K, Ishihara S, Murono K, Otani K, Nishikawa T, et al. Level of arterial
ligation in sigmoid colon and rectal cancer surgery. World Journal of Surgical Oncology.
2016;14(1):1.
