Information for reviewers

  Reviewers are experts chosen by editor in chief and/or associated editors. They are invited to provide written assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of written research, with the aim of improving the reporting of research and identifying the most appropriate and highest quality material for the journal. Reviews will be expected to be professional, honest, courteous, prompt, and constructive. They will also evaluate all sections of manuscript carefully, such as major strengths and weaknesses of study design and methodology, quality of the author's interpretation of the data, ethical issues regards to human and animal studies as well as plagiarism detection. However, reviewers kindly provide the author and editor with useful suggestion for improvement of the manuscript. The review should provide the editor the proper context and perspective to make a decision on acceptance (and/or revision) or rejection of the manuscript.
