Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Authors provide an interesting literature review on postural control, focusing on the relationship between foot and  gaze. Even if the topic is interesting and the provided overview is clear, I strongly believe that the structure of the paper does not meet with the requirements of a literature review. In fact, paper completely lacks of information related to search strategy, paper quality evaluation and paper selection. These are mandatory aspects to consider when writing a systematic review.

 

Please add a materials and methods section and check other systematic reviews to understand the missing information.

Reviewer 1: Authors provide an interesting literature review on postural control, focusing on the relation-ship between foot and gaze. Even if the topic is interesting and the provided overview is clear, I strongly believe that the structure of the paper does not meet with the requirements of a literature review. In fact, paper completely lacks of information related to search strategy, paper quality evaluation and paper selection. These are mandatory aspects to consider when writing a systematic review. Please add a materials and methods section and check other systematic reviews to understand the missing information. We added some information in a short Method section. Note, however, that other ‘re-view’ articles public in Brain Sciences or in other journals did not detailed methods used to selection of papers revised Quintero, et al.
