Editorial Decisions

After the manuscript evaluation and the reviewers’ reports, the assigned Section Editor will make one of the following decisions:

Accepted
Where minor revisions are requested, requiring the authors to revise their manuscript to address specific concerns.

Revisions Required
Where major revisions are requested, requiring the authors to revise their manuscript to address significant concerns and possibly undertake additional work.

The revised manuscript must be submitted through the initial submission link, not as a new manuscript. The revision should also be accompanied by a point-by-point response to the reviewers, explaining how the manuscript was altered.

Our goal is for accepted manuscripts to undergo another round of review before being accepted for publication. Therefore, please ensure that all issues raised are addressed during the first revision recommendation.

Articles with this editorial decision of "Revisions Required" are not accepted and may be subject to rejection if the authors do not comply with or implement any procedure that violates the ethical guidelines.

Rejected
The article is declined, and the reasons are provided. There is a possibility to resubmit the same manuscript to the journal at a later date.
