Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

I salute the authors who conducted many experiments.


However, it seems that this manuscript will have to go through some revisions.

 

1. Some typos are found in the English sentences of the manuscript, and I feel that the readability is poor. It seems that a correction is needed on this point.

 

2. The chemical composition of Hank's solution is well known. But why the authors show the composition as table 1?

 

3. The description of Figure 7 is given in the manuscript, but the sentence describing Figure 7 is not observed in the manuscript.

 

4. If the authors did a statistical analysis, it would be good to implement a visual notation for significance in Figure 7.

 

5. A photograph of the Mg membrane sample can only be observed in Figure 5. However, it is necessary for authors to present photos showing the application in the in vivo study. It may be able to cover the 6mm defect, but it seems to be able to move because there is no fixing screw and the size is not large.

 

6. In an in vivo study, it was said that four 6mm diameter holes were created per rabbit. However, it is estimated that group assignments were made to each hole of three groups. How did the authors do the remaining 1 hole?

 

7. The y-axis in Figure 7 is BV/TV in percentage. But is the 0.1-0.5 notation accurate?
