Withdrawal Policy

Withdrawal of Manuscripts

• Authors may request withdrawal of a manuscript prior to acceptance, with a written explanation.
• Once a manuscript is accepted or published, withdrawal is not permitted except under extraordinary circumstances such as:
• Proven errors that invalidate the work.
• Ethical violations (e.g., authorship disputes, duplicate submission, research misconduct).
• Requests for withdrawal after acceptance are reviewed by the Editor-in-Chief and must be supported by all co-authors.
• Unjustified or repeated withdrawal requests may lead to sanctions, including temporary or permanent refusal of future submissions.
• Withdrawal or retraction of published articles will follow COPE Retraction Guidelines, and retraction notices will remain permanently accessible.
