Reviewer 2 Report
The study seems interesting and genuine, however the following points should be addressed by authors to improve the overall quality of the manuscript:
- The abstract should include a short statement on the current gap in literature relative to this topic.
- The abstract included much of technical details, please try to shorten it as much as you can.
- Introduction section is too short, please add more relevant and updated literature information.
- The authors should add the null hypothesis/hypotheses at the end of the introduction section.
- Since measurements were done by 2 investigators, have authors done inter-examiner variability test? please elaborate in the main text.
- Please provide reasons for using the described statistical analysis test? were data normally distributed?
- Conclusion section can be expanded and summarized in bullets.
