Reviewer 3 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

The article presents an original research regarding the role of systemic inflammatory biomarkres ( NLR, LMR and PLR) in predicting outcomes after rectal cancer surgery. The article is of novelty and the statistic methods used are appropriate.

Some minor issues could be improved:

1. More data regarding the type of rectal cancer would be interesting for the reader.

2. A paragraph with limitation of the study should be added.
