评论了 Intestinal Gas and Bloating: Effect of Prokinetic Stimulation
Given the very small effect size differences and the small sample (N=20), the conclusions that " Prokinetic stimulation improves bloating sensation without detectable changes in gas content." seems excessively confident.

评论了 The effects of the seat cushion contour and the sitting posture on surface pressure distribution and comfort during seated work
This study features a very small sample size (N=16), and the abstract is not particularly clear about the magnitude of the effects that they observed. The English used in writing the abstract is pretty awkward.
