All Journals Published by RSYN RESEARCH LLP

Document Control

Executive Summary

All authors of any work submitted to RSYN RESEARCH LLP journals are required to understand and follow the best ethical practices for publishing of research. RSYN RESEARCH LLP is committed to providing essential services for dissemination of quality science and research content for the global scientific community. Central to this service is the responsibility that editors, authors, and reviewers maintain the highest ethical standards relating to the publication of manuscripts.

RSYN RESEARCH LLP endorses that all authors should follow the core practices and best practice guidelines defined by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). In addition, the following guidelines must be adhered to for all submissions to RSYN RESEARCH LLP journals.

Manuscript Contents

All authors are responsible for the contents included in any manuscripts submitted to RSYN RESEARCH LLP journals. Submission of a manuscript to any RSYN RESEARCH LLP journal is considered a presumption that:

Authors must ensure that their manuscript adheres to the specific formatting and submission guidelines of the target journal within the RSYN RESEARCH LLP portfolio.

Authorship

Author Responsibilities

The corresponding author must ensure that all researchers or persons who have contributed significantly to the work being submitted for publication have been listed as co-authors and/or appropriately acknowledged in the acknowledgement section.

Authorship should reflect intellectual contributions to the conception, design, analysis, and writing of the study. The collection of data and other routine work alone does not warrant authorship. If there is no substantial intellectual contribution that can reasonably be attributed to a particular individual, then that individual should not be credited with authorship.

Authors have a responsibility to give due acknowledgement to all contributors to the work, including:

Submission Requirements

During manuscript submission, the corresponding author must:

Any change in authorship after initial submission must be approved by all authors and justified to the editor with appropriate documentation.

Authorship Disputes

In case of authorship disputes, authors are encouraged to reach a mutual agreement through direct communication. If this is not possible, unresolved disputes should be referred to the responsible research institution(s) for mediation. RSYN RESEARCH LLP reserves the right to suspend publication pending resolution of authorship disputes.

Author Metadata Accuracy

The corresponding author must carefully verify:

This metadata will be transferred to indexing services and databases upon publication, so accuracy is essential for proper indexing, citations, and future funding evaluations.

Conflicts of Interest

Authors must disclose any conflicts of interest that could influence the research, its interpretation, or the publication process. While conflicts of interest are often unavoidable, they must be transparently declared.

Types of Conflicts

Conflicts of interest may arise from various sources and should be disclosed even if authors believe they do not affect the research:

Financial Interests

Authors must declare any significant financial interest – recent, present, or anticipated – in any organization that may gain or lose financially from publication. This includes:

Other Interests

Authors should disclose other potential conflicts including:

Conflict of Interest Statement

Authors must include a Conflicts of Interest statement in the manuscript, placed after the acknowledgements section. If no conflicts exist, this must be explicitly stated as: “The authors declare no conflicts of interest.”
