Review on : Bipartite Patella: Two Cases Reports
Posted by Anonymous Reviewer on 21 Jun 2012 01:58:15 PM GMT

  • What are the main claims of the paper and how important are they?

    Bipartite patella is a relatively uncommon condition which may cause diagnostic dilemma while differentiating this condition from patella fracture secondary to trauma. The idea behind this paper is totally unclear and confusing.


  • Are these claims novel? If not, please specify papers that weaken the claims to the originality of this one.

    The paper is not informative at all. It is not properly written. I can understand that English is not the native language for many authors, however, it is the responsibiility of the authors to publish it clearly with good English. I could not get anything from this paper.


  • Are the claims properly placed in the context of the previous literature?

    Not at all, this paper needs revision.


  • Do the results support the claims? If not, what other evidence is required?

    Not at all, I would request the authors to resubmit it after revision (with good english, detail case description including diagnosis and management, thorough review of literature and comparing their case with the available litearture)


  • If a protocol is provided, for example for a randomized controlled trial, are there any important deviations from it? If so, have the authors explained adequately why the deviations occurred?

    None


  • Is the methodology valid? Does the paper offer enough details of its methodology that its experiments or its analyses could be reproduced?

    No


  • Would any other experiments or additional information improve the paper? How much better would the paper be if this extra work was done, and how difficult would such work be to do, or to provide?

    This paper is poorly written without any content, it needs revision (or withdrawl) from webmed central.


  • Is this paper outstanding in its discipline? (For example, would you like to see this work presented in a seminar at your hospital or university? Do you feel these results need to be incorporated in your next general lecture on the subject?) If yes, what makes it outstanding? If not, why not?

    No
