 5. CRITICAL PRESENTATION OF THE MATERIALS AND METHODS:

POPULATION AND METHODS:

Retrospective, longitudinal, and analytical study. The medical records of patients with
esophageal atresia born between 1996 and 2017 were reviewed. Perinatal data, type of
atresia, associated malformations, respiratory and gastrointestinal complications, and
spirometry data were recorded over 3 years.

VARIABLES:
Patients under follow-up by the Department of Pediatric Pulmonology of our hospital and the
results of 3 spirometries performed during follow-up were recorded. The following spirometry
data were assessed: forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), forced vital capacity
(FVC), and FEV1 /FVC ratio. The data of the first spirometry done by the patient that met the
necessary acceptability and reproducibility standards to consider it valid, and of those
performed 1 and 3 years after the first one were recorded. An obstructive pattern was defined
as a FEV1 /FVC below the lower limit of normality (LLN), whereas a restrictive pattern
corresponded to a FVC < 80 % of the theoretical value. The information about the treatment
required by these patients (aerosol therapy and anti-reflux treatment) was also recorded.

STATISTIC ANALYSIS:
Quantitative outcome measures were described as median and range, and qualitative outcome
measures, as percentage. Proportions were compared using the χ² test or Fisher’s exact test
and the strength of the association (odds ratio, OR) was established based on a binary logistic
regression. Mean values were compared using Student’s t test. The statistical significance
level was established at p < 0.05 and the HolmBonferroni correction was used to adjust for
multiple comparisons. The statistical analysis was performed with the SPSS software program,
version 18.

ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS:
The study was approved by the hospital’s Clinical Research Ethics Committee and was
conducted in accordance with the guidelines established by the Declaration of Helsinki

1) COMMENT:

1.1) POPULATION AND METHODS: The authors should mention in the methods section
that the procedures used in patients and controls have been performed after
obtaining informed consent from the parents. The study must have been reviewed
and approved by the Research and/or Ethics Committees of the institution where the
study was conducted.

1.2) VARIABLES: The variables and the result are clear, they have a conceptual and
operational definition. The measurement instruments have validity and reliability. And
the measurement techniques are adequate and the same for the study groups.

1.3) STATISTIC ANALYSIS: The sample size is justified but the beta error is not defined.
The analysis is determined from the beginning and justified based on the predictor
and outcome variables. It describes statistics of central tendency - dispersion and a
multivariate analysis model is not used.

1.4) ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS: It has the informed procedure, it presents a review
record of the Ethics and Research committees of the Hospital General Universitario
Gregorio Marañón, Madrid, Spain. It has the confidentiality of its patients and there
is not much description of the risks that arise.
