Principles to be Adhered to by Authors Journal authors are expected to adhere to the following principles:

• Article Scope: Authors are obligated to present the scope, results, and significance of the study accurately and impartially. Submitted articles must conform to the journal's field and originality criteria and must be properly referenced.

• Data Access and Retention: Authors should retain raw data so that they can provide them for review if requested by the journal.

• Originality and Plagiarism: Authors should submit only original works and must quote appropriately. Plagiarism is unacceptable, and a similarity rate report is required.

If significant errors are identified, editors or the publisher can take the necessary steps to remove or correct the article.
