Sections
Editorial
An editorial reflects the viewpoint of the editorial board or invited experts on relevant issues in the discipline, or serves as a presentation of a journal issue or section. It does not contain original research and is subject only to editorial review, not to double-blind peer review.
Research Articles
An research article reports novel research findings, usually structured with introduction, methodology, results, and discussion, conclusions and bibliography. Its purpose is to communicate new knowledge that advances understanding in a specific scientific field. These manuscripts undergo double-blind peer review to ensure quality, originality, and validity.
Short Communications
A short communication reports preliminary results, research advances, or relevant findings that need rapid dissemination. It is usually shorter than an original article but maintains scientific rigor. These manuscripts undergo double-blind peer review.
Review Articles
A review article analyzes, synthesizes, and discusses the existing literature on a given topic, offering a comprehensive and critical overview of the state of the art. It does not present new experimental findings but organizes and evaluates published evidence. These manuscripts undergo double-blind peer review.
