The IASR Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Science requires all authors, editors, and reviewers to disclose any financial, personal, professional, or other relationships that could influence, or reasonably be perceived to influence, the conduct, evaluation, or publication of a manuscript.
Authors must disclose all relevant conflicts of interest at the time of manuscript submission. This may include financial relationships, employment, consultancy, grants, personal relationships, intellectual property interests, or other affiliations relevant to the submitted work.
If no conflict exists, authors should state:
“The authors declare that there is no conflict of interest.”
Editors and reviewers must disclose any potential conflict of interest and should not participate in the evaluation of a manuscript where a conflict could affect their objectivity. Appropriate alternative editors or reviewers may be appointed when necessary.
Conflict of interest disclosures are considered part of the journal's commitment to transparent and responsible scholarly publishing. Failure to disclose a relevant conflict may result in appropriate editorial action, including correction or other action when necessary.
