• Avoid Fabricated Data: Authors should refrain from presenting fictitious data as genuine results of their research.
• Data Integrity: Data should not be manipulated to fit hypotheses or objectives of the study.
• Avoid Fragmented Publication: Studies should not be divided into multiple parts solely to increase the number of publications.
• Plagiarism Prevention: Proper citations and references must be provided for all borrowed content to prevent plagiarism or self-plagiarism.
• Balanced Reporting: Authors should present both supporting and contradicting evidence to avoid bias in reporting findings.
• Conflict of Interest Disclosure: Authors must disclose any potential conflicts of interest that may influence their research or publication.
• Permission for Material Usage: Authors are responsible for obtaining necessary permissions for reproducing copyrighted material.
