Reviewer 2 Report

Authors are advised to consult the PRISMA 2020 Declaration, in its updated version for systematic reviews, to at least mention it in the text and check whether there have been any substantial changes. It is also recommended that the authors specify in the text the number of manuscripts obtained after discarding those that do not meet their inclusion and exclusion criteria. Systematic reviews usually give more details in this regard in the written part. However, the flow chart is correct and synthesizes well the results obtained in the search.

These are minor suggestions because in general it is a complete article that clearly describes the objective of the study, its methodology and the results obtained.
