Motivation: Manuscript did not get a positive review because of the interest conflict. Now we have got two negative reviews both from one reviewer. We have sent letter to Editor-in-Chief to get review from other reviewer. We have several successful cases of our manuscripts published in that Journal. That is a single interpersonal conflict. We hope to get a positive review.

Motivation: I think not providing a single reason for rejection is unacceptable. Apparently the decision was based on "inner circle referees" and made in a physical meeting, so no reports available.
