Publication Ethics

Any violations of publication ethics, including plagiarism, falsification of data, or unethical behavior, will be taken seriously and may result in retraction of published articles or other appropriate actions.

Authors should make all relevant data underlying their research findings publicly available, where possible, to ensure transparency and reproducibility. Data should be deposited in appropriate repositories or archives and referenced in the manuscript.

Authors are responsible for retaining the original data supporting their research for a reasonable period after publication. This ensures that data can be accessed for verification or further analysis if needed.

Authors should provide clear instructions on how to access the data supporting their research, including any restrictions on access or conditions for use. They should also ensure that data are provided in a format that is easily understandable and usable by other researchers.

Multiple Publication

Authors should not submit the same manuscript or substantial parts of it to more than one journal simultaneously. Submitting duplicate or redundant publications is considered unethical and may result in rejection or retraction of the manuscript.

Cross-Referencing

Authors should disclose any previous publications or submissions related to the research presented in the manuscript, including conference presentations, preprints, or other forms of dissemination. Proper acknowledgment and citation of previous work are essential to avoid allegations of duplicate publication.

Accuracy and Transparency
Authors should provide accurate and complete information in their manuscripts. Data and results should be presented honestly and transparently, with any limitations clearly acknowledged. Any errors or inaccuracies discovered after publication should be promptly corrected with appropriate errata or retractions.

Ethical Treatment of Subjects
Research involving human subjects or animals must adhere to ethical guidelines and obtain appropriate approvals from relevant ethics committees. Informed consent should be obtained from participants, and their privacy and confidentiality should be protected.

Acknowledgment of Sources
Authors should properly cite all sources used in their research and avoid self-plagiarism. Permission should be obtained for the use of copyrighted materials, and proper attribution should be given.

Responsibility of Editors
Editors are responsible for making fair and unbiased decisions based on the quality and merit of the research. They should handle manuscripts confidentially and ensure that all submissions undergo a thorough and transparent review process.

Retraction

In cases where errors or inaccuracies are discovered after publication, authors should promptly notify the journal editor and cooperate fully in issuing corrections or retractions as necessary. Retractions should be issued if research misconduct or serious errors are identified that invalidate the findings of the published article.
