Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

A very comphrehensive review describing the role of cutaneous and intestinal microbiome in psoriasis, focusing specifically in artropatic psoriasis; I have some queries.

A matherials and methos subsection, stating what databases were searched in order to perform this review, if there were any preferential criteria in study selection, would in my opinion be a great add to the study; 

Page 2 line 31 this senntence needs a referral: "Psoriasis is a chronic recurrent skin disease affecting approximately 2% of the global population. According to literature data, it is associated with higher prevalence of such comorbidities as cardiovascular disease, hypertension, obesity, metabolic syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)." I suggest you this one :doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0241575.

Page 2 line 33-34, you should add: "Various drugs have been proposed in the treatment of this condition, such as topical medications based on corticosteroids and vitamin D derivatives , and systemic treatments based on suppressions of various inflammatory axis." and cite an aryticle such as:  doi: 10.1111/dth.13185.and doi: 10.1111/dth.14504.
