The References section must include all authors and works cited in the manuscript and must appear at the end of the text in alphabetical order.

7. Manuscript Evaluation
Submitted manuscripts will be evaluated anonymously by specialists, and the outcome of the review process will be communicated promptly to the author(s). The journal reserves the right to conduct certain stages of the editorial process (including review and revision) through its own management systems or by e-mail. Authors may contact the journal at any time to request information regarding the status of their submission, including information that is available through the double-blind review system.
