Conflict of interest and disclosure: All authors are required to explicitly declare that there are no conflicts of interest that may have influenced the findings or proposed interpretations. The authors must also indicate any funding from agencies and/or projects from which the research article arises.

Errors in published articles: When an @ author @ identifies an important error or inaccuracy in his article, he must immediately inform the journal and provide all necessary information to indicate the pertinent corrections at the bottom of the same article.

Commitments of the reviewers:

Contribution to the editorial decision: Peer review is a fundamental procedure for making decisions on proposed articles and also allows the author@ to improve the contribution submitted for publication.

The reviewers are obliged to give sufficient reasons for their evaluations.

They are obligated to notify the editors if substantial parts of the work have already been published or are under review for another publication.

Conflict of interest: The reviewers only review a manuscript if there are no conflicts of interest.

Commitments of the editors:

Publication decision: the editors will guarantee the selection of the most qualified reviewers to issue a critical appreciation of the work, with the least possible deviation.
