Clinicopathological Factors Associated with Oncotype DX Risk Group in Patients with ER+/HER2- Breast Cancer
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
The authors discuss clinicopathological findings that can be used to predict risk in breast cancer patients that can be substituted for ODX; the content provides an overview of the relationship between both ODX and clinicopathological information and is clinically applicable.
Minor point:
The authors have done a cutoff for breast cancer patients by age, but would it be useful to do a cutoff by pre- and postmenopause instead? Please discuss.

Reviewer 2 Report
Song et al. present an interesting and well-structured manuscript. The authors present interesting results that support the conclusions. Authors need to address a few questions:
-The title must improve and have a clear translational character.
-The introduction to the state of the art must have a justification of the novelty of the study.
-Authors must calculate the statistical potential and the sample size.
-The figures are little self-explanatory and of low quality.
-The figures legends should be described better.
-Authors must include a figure where representative histological images are included.
-The authors should make a more translational discussion, where the manuscripts doi: 10.3390/ijms24098396 are included. and doi: 10.3390/medicina58060722.
-The use of English grammar must be specifically reviewed.
Extensive editing of English language required.
