Peer Review Process

Editorial Procedures and Peer Review

• The Editorial office will desk review each submitted manuscript once it has been received by the Editorial Office to ascertain whether it is correctly formatted, complies with the journal's ethical standards, and is suitable for systematic review. Manuscripts that do not fit the journal's ethics policy or do not meet the standards of the journal will be rejected before peer-review.
• Manuscripts will be returned to the authors for editing and resubmission if they are not properly written or formatted, do not comply with the journal’s ethical policy, or do not fulfill the standards of the journal. The managing editor will then decide after consulting with the editor-in-chief whether the submitted work is appropriate for publication or not. The managing editor will also consult with editor-in-chief or member of editorial or advisory board in case of any conflict of interest. The submitted article will not be evaluated for the potential significance at this stage and the rejections at this stage would be done by the verification of the editor-in-chief.
• Every submitted article will be reviewed by the one National, and one or more international reviewers.
