We appreciate your valuable contribution as a reviewer and would like to emphasize key points to strengthen the editorial projection of the journal, consolidating its recognition in the scientific community:

1. Ethical Respect

  • Ensure adherence to ethical principles in the publication of scientific works.

2. Editorial Status of the Journal

  • Familiarize yourself with and align your review process with the editorial scope and mission of the journal.

3. Ethical Review

  • Promptly report any suspicions of plagiarism, data fabrication, or ethical concerns to the Editor-in-Chief or Scientific Council.
  • Maintain strict confidentiality regarding manuscript content and the review process.

4. Evaluation of Manuscript Quality

  • Use the journal's official review form to assess manuscript quality.
  • Provide a brief synthesis expressing your overall impression of the manuscript’s relevance, innovation, and contribution to the field.
  • Offer clear, constructive comments and suggestions to authors, referencing specific pages, paragraphs, or lines.

5. Reviewer Recognition

  • Reviewers may record completed reviews through recognized reviewer-contribution services, subject to the journal’s confidentiality policy and without disclosing manuscript content, reviewer reports or confidential editorial information. Reviewers are encouraged to maintain an up-to-date ORCID record. Recognition activities must not compromise reviewer anonymity or influence the substance of the evaluation.

6. Use of Artificial Intelligence

  • Reviewers must not use generative artificial intelligence tools to produce or draft their review reports, as this may compromise confidentiality and the integrity of the evaluation process.
  • Any permitted use of automated tools must remain under human oversight and must not involve the upload or disclosure of confidential manuscript content.

7. Conflict of Interest

  • Before accepting an invitation, reviewers must disclose any actual, potential or perceived conflict of interest involving the manuscript, its authors, their institutions, funding sources or subject matter. Reviewers must decline the assignment whenever the conflict could reasonably affect, or appear to affect, their impartiality.
