Author Guidelines

Manuscripts must be written in English.

The manuscript is written in the following structure: Title, Author Name, affiliation, and email (all authors and correspondence) Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, Acknowledgments, and References.

TITLE: The title should be no more than 15 words and describe the contents of the manuscript, followed by the author's name, affiliation.

ABSTRACT: A single paragraph of about 200 words maximum. For research articles, abstracts should give a pertinent overview of the work. We strongly encourage authors to use the following style of structured abstracts, but without headings: (1) Background: Place the question addressed in a broad context and highlight the purpose of the study; (2) Methods: briefly describe the main methods or treatments applied; (3) Results: summarize the article's main findings; (4) Conclusions: indicate the main conclusions or interpretations. The abstract should be an objective representation of the article and it must not contain results that are not presented and substantiated in the main text and should not exaggerate the main conclusions.

1. INTRODUCTION:

The introduction should briefly place the study in a broad context and highlight why it is important. It should define the purpose of the work and its significance. The current state of the research field should be carefully reviewed, and key publications cited. Please highlight controversial and diverging hypotheses when necessary. Finally, briefly mention the main aim of the work and highlight the principal conclusions. As far as possible, please keep the introduction comprehensible to scientists outside your particular field of research. In-text citations: All citations in the text should refer to:

  1. Single author: the author’s name (without initials, unless there is ambiguity) and the year of publication.
  2. Two authors: both authors” names and the year of publication.
  3. Three or more authors: first author’s name followed by ‘et al.’ and the year of publication

Citation may be made directly (or parenthetically). Groups of references should be listed first alphabetically, then chronologically. Examples: …as demonstrated (Akmal, 2020a, 2020b, 2022; Akmal and Damar, 2023). Akmal et al. (2021) have recently shown…

2. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The Materials and Methods should be described with sufficient details to allow others to replicate and build on the published results. Please note that the publication of your manuscript implicates that you must make all materials, data, computer code, and protocols associated with the publication available to readers. Please disclose at the submission stage any restrictions on the availability of materials or information. New methods and protocols should be described in detail while well-established methods can be briefly described and appropriately cited.

Research manuscripts reporting large datasets that are deposited in a publicly available database should specify where the data have been deposited and provide the relevant accession numbers. If the accession numbers have not yet been obtained at the time of submission, please state that they will be provided during review. They must be provided prior to publication.

Interventionary studies involving animals or humans, and other studies that require ethical approval, must list the authority that provided approval and the corresponding ethical approval code.

3. RESULTS: This section may be divided by subheadings. It should provide a concise and precise description of the experimental results, their interpretation, as well as the experimental conclusions that can be drawn.

Figures, Table, and Schemes: All figures and tables should be cited in the main text as Figure 1, Table 1, etc. Tables should be placed in the main text near to the first time they are cited. Schemes follow another format. If there are multiple panels, they should be listed as: (a) Description of what is contained in the first panel; (b) Description of what is contained in the second panel. Figures should be placed in the main text near to the first time they are cited. A caption on a single line should be centered.

Formating of Mathematical Components:

This is example 1 of an equation:

a = 1,

(1)

the text following an equation need not be a new paragraph. Please punctuate equations as regular text.

This is example 2 of an equation:

a = b + c + d + e + f + g + h + i + j + k + l + m + n + o + p + q + r + s + t + u + v + w + x + y + z

(2)

the text following an equation need not be a new paragraph. Please punctuate equations as regular text.

Theorem-type environments (including propositions, lemmas, corollaries etc.) can be formatted as follows:

Theorem 1. Example text of a theorem. Theorems, propositions, lemmas, etc. should be numbered sequentially (i.e., Proposition 2 follows Theorem 1). Examples or Remarks use the same formatting, but should be numbered separately, so a document may contain Theorem 1, Remark 1 and Example 1.

The text continues here. Proofs must be formatted as follows:

Proof of Theorem 1. Text of the proof. Note that the phrase “of Theorem 1” is optional if it is clear which theorem is being referred to. Always finish a proof with the following symbol. □

4. DISCUSSION: Authors should discuss the results and how they can be interpreted from the perspective of previous studies and of the working hypotheses. The findings and their implications should be discussed in the broadest context possible. Discussion should discuss limitation of methodology, either in data and analyses.  In principle, it should be discussed about the weakness of the research and should be in the range of scientific acception. Future research directions may also be highlighted.

5. CONCLUSION: Here the explanation about the results, discussions, findings and so forth. Conclusion should be able to answer all the research questions and research objectives. The main conclusions of the study may be presented in a short Conclusions section, which may stand alone.

6. PATENTS: This section is not mandatory but may be added if there are patents resulting from the work reported in this manuscript.
