Ethical responsibility of the author

1. Authors must ensure that their manuscripts are original, truthful and ethically prepared, avoiding any questionable research practices. All statements must be supported by relevant scientific literature and citations must be used responsibly.
2. Ethical approval, informed consent, and permissions to use instruments must be obtained when applicable. Likewise, potential conflicts of interest must be declared with complete transparency.
3. If serious errors are detected after publication, authors are required to notify the journal so that corrections or, if necessary, retractions can be made.
