Any manuscript submitted to this journal is first checked by an editor to determine whether it is appropriate for the journal's aim and scope, completion of all elements of the manuscript, such as the IMRAD, clarity of tables and figures, proper referencing, and possible plagiarism. The author will be notified if flaws are found in this step within three days after submission. Once there are no flaws, the author is eligible to receive a Letter of Submission, and the manuscript is further submitted to reviewers. A manuscript will be reviewed by at least two independent reviewers. They are appointed by other institutions, whether national or international. The reviewing process is a double-blind peer review in which the author and the reviewers do not know each other. Reviewers' comments are sent anonymously to the author for revision. The revised manuscript will be discussed in a regular editorial board meeting, where the final decision regarding its publication eligibility will be made. Once a revised manuscript is regarded as eligible for publication, a Letter of Acceptance is issued to the corresponding author. The whole process is generally completed within 6–10 weeks.
