Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Thank you for the opportunity to review your work.  Please see the suggested comments.

 

This is well written paper and easy to follow.

Lines 144 – 192: it is helpful to describe the process, but it might not be useful to explain each author’s role and tasks. This section should not show “who” did what, but “how” team did for this study. If necessary, you could add more at “Author Contribution” section.

Line 387 -388: what is the difference between low quality and high quality?
