Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement

This journal is committed to maintaining the integrity of the scientific record. According to him
Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), the journal will follow the
COPE guidelines on how to handle potential acts of misconduct. The authors must
refrain from misrepresenting the results of the investigation that could damage confidence in the
magazine, the professionalism of scientific authorship and, ultimately, the entire scientific effort.
Maintaining the integrity of the investigation and its presentation can be achieved by following the rules
of good scientific practice, including:

-The manuscript has not been submitted to more than one journal for simultaneous consideration.- The manuscript has not been previously published (in whole or in part), unless the new work refers to an extension of previous work (please provide transparency about reuse of material to avoid insinuation of text recycling (" self-plagiarism").
- A single study is not broken into multiple parts to increase the number of submissions and submitted to multiple journals or one journal over time.
- No data (including images) have been fabricated or manipulated to support their conclusions.
- Data, texts or theories of others are not presented as if they were the author's own ("plagiarism"). Appropriate acknowledgments must be given to other works (this includes closely copied (near verbatim), abridged, and/or paraphrased material), quotation marks are used for verbatim copying of material, and permissions are granted for copyrighted material. Important note: the journal may use software to check for plagiarism.
- Consent to present has been explicitly received from all co-authors, as well as from the responsible authorities - tacitly or explicitly - at the institute/organization where the work was carried out, before presenting the work.
- The authors whose names appear in the presentation have contributed sufficiently to the scientific work and therefore share collective responsibility and responsibility for the results.
- Authors are strongly encouraged to ensure the correct author group, corresponding author, and author order at time of submission. Changes of authorship or in the order of authors are not accepted after acceptance of a manuscript.
- The addition and/or deletion of authors at the review stage can be justifiably justified. A letter must accompany the revised manuscript to explain the role of the added and/or deleted author(s). Additional documentation may be required to support your request.
- Requests for the addition or removal of authors as a result of authorship disputes after acceptance are honored after formal notification by the institute or independent body and/or when there is agreement between all authors.
- Upon request, authors should be prepared to submit relevant documentation or data to verify the validity of the results. This can be in the form of raw data, samples, records, etc. Confidential information in the form of proprietary sensitive data is excluded.

If there is a suspicion of misconduct, the journal will conduct an investigation following COPE guidelines. If, after investigation, the allegation appears to raise valid concerns, the accused perpetrator will be contacted and given an opportunity to address the matter. If misconduct has been established beyond reasonable doubt, this may result in the Editor-in-Chief implementing the following measures, including, but not limited to:

- If the article is still under consideration, it may be rejected and returned to the author.
- If the article has already been published online, depending on the nature and severity of the infringement, a typo will be placed on the article or in severe cases the article will be completely retracted. The reason must be given in the published errata or in the retraction note. Please note that the retraction means that the paper remains on the platform, watermarked "retracted" and the explanation of the retraction is provided in a note linked to the watermarked article.
- The institution of the author can be informed.
