Ethical Considerations

Our journal, J Regen Dev, is dedicated to upholding the highest ethical standards throughout the publication process to ensure integrity, transparency, and trust in scholarly communication. All parties involved authors, reviewers, and editors are expected to comply with the following ethical guidelines:

1.         Originality and Plagiarism

All submissions must represent original work and must not have been published or simultaneously submitted elsewhere. Authors are responsible for ensuring their work is free from plagiarism, fabrication, or falsification of data. Proper citations and acknowledgments must be given for all sources and contributions.

2.        Authorship and Contribution

Only individuals who have made significant intellectual contributions to the research and manuscript preparation should be listed as authors. All authors must approve the final version of the manuscript and agree to its submission. Any changes in authorship after submission require written consent from all co-authors.

3.         Conflict of Interest Disclosure

Authors, reviewers, and editors must disclose any financial, personal, or professional relationships that could potentially influence their objectivity. Full transparency helps maintain the impartiality and credibility of the publication process.

4.        Peer Review Integrity

The journal follows a rigorous peer review system designed to ensure fair, unbiased, and confidential evaluation of manuscripts. Reviewers must treat all manuscripts with confidentiality and provide constructive feedback based solely on scientific merit.

5.        Data and Reproducibility

Authors are expected to present accurate and verifiable data, methodologies, and analyses. When applicable, data supporting the findings should be made available to editors, reviewers, or readers upon reasonable request to promote reproducibility.

6.        Ethical Approval

Research involving human participants, animals, or sensitive data must comply with relevant ethical standards and regulations, including obtaining necessary approvals from institutional review boards or ethics committees. Authors should include statements confirming ethical compliance in their manuscripts.

7.        Handling Misconduct

Any suspected cases of unethical behavior, including plagiarism, data manipulation, duplicate publication, or authorship disputes, will be investigated thoroughly. Appropriate actions may include correction, retraction, or sanctions against offending parties.

8.        Corrections and Retractions

If significant errors or ethical issues are identified after publication, the journal will promptly issue corrections, retractions, or expressions of concern to maintain the accuracy of the scholarly record.
