Reviewer 2 Report

A beautiful review widely explaining the state of the art of the offloading in diabetic foot lesions, mirroring the recent guidelines.

Easy to read, clear to understand.

The main question, if the knee-high offloading systems are better than other systems to heal lesions, basing on literature, receive a positive answer, and the conclusions are consistent with the arguments and the bodies of evidences evaluated by authors.
On the other hand, we can not speak of an original aspect, in this review, as the review per se overlaps and reflects equal the guidelines of international societies on diabetic foot.
Nevertheless, the diffusion of such knowledges is still needed and important.
