Research integrity
Authors are expected to submit original work, represent methods and results accurately, disclose relevant conflicts, obtain appropriate approvals and follow accepted standards for authorship and attribution.
Editorial safeguards
The platform supports controlled authorship changes, editorial screening, reviewer management, audit history and structured decision workflows. These controls help reduce silent changes and improve accountability.
Concerns and corrections
Potential integrity concerns should be evaluated proportionately and documented. When the scholarly record requires correction, clarification or other action, the journal should follow an evidence-based process appropriate to the issue.
