Response

We appreciate the letter from Pasam et  al1 in response to our article2 in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy. The authors included only randomized controlled trials, as opposed to our analysis,2 where we included both observational studies and randomized controlled trials to provide a more comprehensive review. Our analysis did not include the trials by Rex et al3 and Rodríguez Sánchez et al4 because they were published after our search period until January 12, 2023. Because our study inclusion criteria for polyps were size ≥1.5 cm, we also did not include the 2019 study by Yamashina et al.
