Reviewing policy

Scientific articles submitted for publishing in journal are subjected to a single-blind review process. In this review process, the author submitting their research article does not know the identities of their reviewers, although the reviewers may choose to if so desired. Two independent experts review each article, and a final publishing decision is made by the Editor-in-Chief.[12]

Use of AI policy

Any author who uses Artificial Intelligence tools like ChatGPT and similar large language models must be transparent about their use in preparing the article for publication. The details of how the AI was used must be disclosed in the “Materials and Methods” section of the article.[12]
