3. Abstract and Keywords

The abstract must be concise, accurate, and provide a clear overview of the research objectives, methods, results, and conclusions. Avoid citations in the abstract. Authors must provide 3 to 6 relevant keywords to assist in indexing and searchability.

4. References

Authors are encouraged to follow the Vancouver referencing style. All references should be cited in the text by superscript numbers in the order of appearance and listed numerically at the end of the manuscript. Include all necessary details such as author names, article title, journal name, year, volume, and page numbers.

5. Tables and Figures

Tables and figures should be numbered consecutively and placed at the end of the manuscript or embedded within the text at appropriate locations. Each table and figure must have a descriptive title or caption. Figures should be submitted in high-resolution formats (JPEG, PNG, or TIFF).

6. Ethical Considerations

All research involving human participants or animals must adhere to ethical standards and be approved by the relevant institutional review board or ethics committee. Authors must include an ethics statement in their manuscript and confirm that informed consent was obtained where applicable.

7. Plagiarism and Originality

Manuscripts must be original and free from plagiarism. All submissions are checked using reliable plagiarism detection tools. Any form of duplicate publication, fabrication, or unethical behavior will result in immediate rejection.

8. Authorship and Contributions

Only individuals who have made a substantial contribution to the research and manuscript preparation should be listed as authors. The corresponding author is responsible for ensuring that all listed authors have reviewed and approved the final version of the manuscript.

9. Peer Review Process

All submitted manuscripts undergo a rigorous double-blind peer review process conducted by at least two subject experts. The editorial board may request revisions based on reviewer comments. Final acceptance is subject to the editor’s discretion.
