<!-- <p> Traditional Medicine Research places great importance on the quality and reliability of
|
||
academic
|
||
research
|
||
while also welcoming authors to use various effective tools and techniques to enhance their
|
||
research efficiency and quality. When using artificial intelligence language models such as
|
||
ChatGPT, we believe that authors must be cautious about the semantic understanding it
|
||
generates
|
||
and the ambiguities caused by cultural differences to ensure that the use of these tools
|
||
does
|
||
not affect the quality and reliability of the research.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p> Therefore, Traditional Medicine Research allows authors to use ChatGPT to improve efficiency
|
||
in
|
||
translation, summarization, language correction, etc. but does not allow authors to use
|
||
ChatGPT
|
||
to generate the main content of their research papers. If an author is found to have
|
||
violated
|
||
this rule, the article will be rejected, and any manuscripts submitted by the author will
|

not be

statement providing information about the ethics committee that approved the research and,
|
||
if
|
||
available, the license or animal license number. This number must be clearly stated in the

been
|
||
obtained from participants. The ethical approval number must be clearly stated in the
|

|
||
<br />Ethical considerations in the design of different human research:
|
||
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title">a. Retrospective research:</p>
|
||
<p> If the research involves accessing or using personal data, such as medical records or other
|
||
sensitive information, ethical approval is required. Researchers must carefully consider the
|
||
ethical implications of their research and seek guidance from appropriate committees or
|
||
review
|
||
boards if necessary to ensure that their research is conducted in an ethical and responsible
|
||
manner. If ethical approval for the article is waived, documentation of approval from an
|
||
ethics
|
||
committee must be provided and a statement confirming this must be included in the
|
||
manuscript. <br />
|
||
Unless the owner of the content in the database has other suggestions, the obtained data
|
||
must
|
||
remain anonymous. If the detailed information of the participants does not need to be
|
||
anonymous,
|
||
the authors must be able to provide evidence that written informed consent has been obtained
|
||
from the participants, including consent to publication. A statement confirming this must be
|
||
included in the manuscript.</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> b. Investigative research:</p>
|
||
<p> Researchers must ensure that they have informed all participants of the reasons for the
|
||
research, whether anonymity is guaranteed, and how the data they collect is stored.
|
||
Participants' confidentiality rights should always be considered and they should be fully
|
||
informed of the purpose of the research and whether there are any associated risks. Their
|
||
voluntary consent should be recorded and any legal requirements regarding data protection
|
||
should
|
||
be complied with. As with all research, ethical approval from the appropriate local ethics
|
||
committee must be obtained prior to conducting research. A statement confirming this must be
|
||
included in the manuscript. In cases where ethical approval of an investigative study is not
|
||
required, authors must include a statement explaining this in the manuscript.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> c. Research involving organ and tissue transplantation:</p>
|
||
<p> Traditional Medicine Research endorses the ethical guidelines set forth by the <a
|
||
target="_blank" href="">World Health
|
||
Organization
|
||
(WHO)</a> and <a target="_blank"

|
||
World Medical Association (WMA)</a>. All
|
||
research involving the transplantation of
|
||
human organs should have ethical approval from the appropriate committee and the source of
|
||
donor
|
||
tissue must be disclosed in the manuscript. If the donor is deceased, the authors must
|
||
verify
|
||
that the donated organ was obtained with the fully informed consent of the donor or a close
|
||
relative. Consent must be given willingly and must not be influenced by coercion or bribes.
|
||
The
|
||
manuscript must include a statement specifying the source of the transplanted organ and a
|
||
confirmation that informed consent was obtained.</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title">d. Research involving children, adolescents, and vulnerable or
|
||
incapacitated research
|
||
participants:</p>
|
||
<p> Written informed consent must be obtained from the parent or guardian of any participant who
|
||
is
|
||
unable to provide full informed consent themselves. The legal age of majority varies by
|
||
country
|
||
and is generally between 16-18 years old. The manuscript must include a statement confirming
|
||
that informed consent was obtained. If oral informed consent was obtained instead of written
|
||
consent, this must be explained and documented in the manuscript. In accordance with the
|
||
principles outlined in the <a target="_blank"

Privacy Act 1993</a>, informed consent from participants must be obtained voluntarily,
|
||
and
|
||
participants should be fully informed about the research, including any benefits and risks
|
||
involved.
|
||
<br />
|
||
For all research involving human subjects, written informed consent must be obtained before
|
||
the
|
||
start of the study and must be included in the manuscript as a statement confirming that
|
||
this
|
||
has been done. The author must retain written consent from patients, and the editorial
|
||
office
|
||
will ask the author to provide it in case of need, such as legal disputes, challenges, or
|
||
complaints. For research involving children, in addition to obtaining the informed consent
|
||
of
|
||
the parent or legal guardian, assent from the child should also be obtained in a manner
|
||
appropriate to the child's age, maturity, and level of understanding. Special consideration
|
||
should be given to the protection of vulnerable populations, such as children, pregnant
|
||
women,
|
||
prisoners, and individuals with mental or physical disabilities. These individuals may
|
||
require
|
||
additional safeguards to protect their rights and well-being and may require the involvement
|
||
of
|
||
an advocate or legal guardian in the informed consent process. If the participant is
|
||
deceased,
|
||
consent must be obtained from their legal guardian or close relative.
|
||
<br />
|
||
The following informed consent policy must be followed for any articles and supplementary
|
||
materials (including all illustrations and videos) that contain information that may
|
||
identify a
|
||
patient's personal details:<br />
|
||
Authors must confirm that they have obtained access to the affected individual (or their
|
||
parent/guardian, if the participant is not an adult or unable to give informed consent; or
|
||
a
|
||
close relative if the participant is deceased).<br />
|
||
Identifying information includes (but is not limited to) written descriptions, photographs,
|
||
illustrations, audio recordings, videos, family trees and rare diseases, physical
|
||
characteristics or diseases.<br />
|
||
The process of obtaining consent to publish should include sharing the article with
|
||
individuals
|
||
(or anyone giving consent on their behalf) so that they fully understand the content of the
|
||
article before publication. A statement of consent to publish must confirm that the
|
||
individual
|
||
giving consent is aware of and agrees to the release of specific details, such as images,
|
||
videos, audio recordings, etc., and has been informed of the content of the article to be
|
||
published.<br />
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> 4.Clinical case report</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
A clinical case report provides a detailed account of an individual patient's clinical
|
||
experiences. As the manuscript may contain sensitive personal information, obtaining
|
||
explicit
|
||
consent is necessary for its publication.
|
||
<br />
|
||
To ensure proper ethical conduct, authors must confirm that they have obtained permission to
|
||
include information about the affected individual (or their parent/guardian if the
|
||
participant
|
||
is not an adult or unable to give informed consent; or a close relative if the participant
|
||
is
|
||
deceased).<br />

Trials must register at or before the onset of patient enrolment. Purely observational

<p class="item-title"> b.Reporting clinical trials</p>
|
||
<p> We strongly encourage authors of randomized controlled trial studies to follow the CONSORT
|
||
guidelines in order to improve the quality and clarity of their research reports. Adhering
|
||
to
|
||
these guidelines can help to ensure that key information about the study design, participant
|
||
characteristics, interventions, and outcomes is accurately and completely presented,
|
||
allowing
|
||
readers to fully understand and evaluate the study. While following the CONSORT guidelines
|
||
is
|
||
not a requirement, we believe that doing so can significantly enhance the value and impact
|
||
of
|
||
the research for the scientific community.</p>
|

<p class="item-title"> 6.Research involving cell lines</p>
|
||
<p> In research involving cell lines, the methods section of submissions should clearly state
|
||
the

source of the cell lines used. For established cell lines, the provenance should be
|
||
provided,
|
||
along with references to a published paper or commercial source. If the cell lines are of
|
||
human
|
||
origin, written informed consent must be obtained and documented. In the case of previously
|
||
unpublished de novo cell lines, including those obtained from other laboratories, details of
|
||
institutional review board or ethics committee approval must be included. This is especially
|
||
important for cell lines derived from vulnerable or incapacitated participants, for whom
|
||
written
|
||
informed consent from a parent or guardian is required. Ensuring ethical conduct and proper
|
||
oversight in research involving cell lines is vital.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class="item-title"> 7.Research involving plants</p>
|
||
<p>The well-being of many species of wild animals and plants is endangered due to climate change
|
||
and overuse of natural resources, such as pangolins and rhinoceros horn. It is important
|
||
that
|
||
authors respect biodiversity and adhere to international treaties related to endangered
|
||
species. If any pharmaceutical ingredients used in research come from endangered animals or
|
||
plants, the source of these ingredients must be disclosed and ethical approval must be
|
||
obtained.
|
||
|
||
<br />
|
||
Experimental research on plants, whether cultivated or wild, must comply with institutional,
|
||
national, or international guidelines. We recommend following the <a target="_blank"
|
||
href="https://www.cbd.int/convention">Convention on Biological
|
||
Diversity</a> and the <a target="_blank" href="https://cites.org/eng">Convention on the
|
||
Trade in Endangered
|
||
Species of Wild Fauna and Flora</a>.
|
||
<br />
|
||
For research manuscripts involving rare plants, voucher specimens must be deposited in an
|
||
accessible herbarium or museum and genetic information and origin must be provided for each
|
||
submitted manuscript. Ensuring the protection and preservation of biodiversity is crucial in
|
||
research involving plants and animals.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> 8.Research data</p>
|
||
<p> The length of time you store data depends on the nature of the research project and the
|
||
resultant data. Where it is workable, you should store all data (for at least the term of
|
||
the
|
||
project). Most researchers will store data for at least five years after final publication.
|
||
<br />
|
||
You need to keep data for a further five years if you re-analyse data and publish again.

<p class="item-title"> Corrections, retractions, and expressions of concern
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> 1.Published papers corrections</p>
|
||
<p> Traditional Medicine Research's "Published papers corrections" policy and process is open
|
||
and
|
||
transparent.</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> a.Not eligible for corrections</p>
|
||
<p> Minor errors that do not affect readability or meaning (eg spelling, grammar, whitespace
|
||
errors)
|
||
are not eligible for a correction, regardless of whether the error is caused by the author
|
||
or
|
||
editor.</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> b.Eligible for corrections without posting a correction notice
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p> (1). The editorial office requires the author to confirm the author's information in the
|
||
PROOF
|
||
stage. Once the author's information is confirmed, the editor will not change it if it is
|
||
not
|
||
related to the spelling of the author's name. It may be done if it is deemed a reasonable
|
||
request by the editorial office. Once approved, the article will be updated and republished
|
||
on
|
||
our website. After this, all relevant index databases will be notified to ensure that the
|
||
database version has also been modified.<br />
|
||
(2). Name changes are also permitted, and we recognize that name changes may be private in
|
||
nature for a variety of reasons, which may include alignment with gender identity, marriage,
|
||
divorce, or religious beliefs. Therefore, to protect authorship, no corrections will be
|
||
published and no co-authors will be notified. Authors should contact the journal's editorial
|
||
office to request a name change.<br />
|
||
Although the above is the case of "Eligible for corrections without posting a correction
|
||
notice", the revision process will be recorded in the TMR publishing group's submission
|
||
system
|
||
and retained for at least one year for retrospective use.
|
||
<br />
|
||
In the following cases, a corrections request can be completed, but a correction notice must
|
||
be
|
||
published.<br />
|
||
(1). Error in a misleading section of an otherwise reliable publication; error in data or
|
||
interpretation (that does not affect final conclusions); missing or unclear figures/tables.
|
||
<br /> (2). Add or remove the author from the author list (including adding or removing
|
||
entire
|
||
affiliations).
|
||
<br /> (3). Add or remove references.
|
||
<br />(4). Add or remove text.
|
||
<br />(5). Modification of funding, author contributions, acknowledgments.
|
||
<br />Once the update request is approved, the article will be updated and republished on
|
||
our website
|
||
with the correction posted. The notice is a separate publication, linked to the updated
|
||
article,
|
||
registered as a separate DOI, but published in the latest issue of the journal. Following
|
||
these
|
||
updates, all relevant index databases will be notified to ensure that database versions are
|
||
also
|
||
revised.<br />
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class="item-title"> 2.Retractions</p>
|
||
<p> There are many reasons for retractions, which may be due to inadvertent errors in the
|
||
research
|
||
process, serious ethical violations, falsified data, extensive plagiarism, or other reasons.
|
||
Such articles threaten the integrity of the scientific record and need to be
|
||
retracted. <br />
|
||
Traditional Medicine Research follows the <a target="_blank"
|
||
href="https://publicationethics.org/retraction-guidelines">recommendation of the
|
||
Committee
|
||
on Publication Ethics
|
||
(COPE)</a> to
|
||
retract. If a retraction is published, the original publication is revised with a
|
||
"Retraction"
|
||
watermark, but is still available on the journal's website for future reference. However,
|
||
retracted articles should not be cited and used for further research as they cannot be
|
||
trusted. <br />
|
||
The retraction notice will fully publish the information of the retracted paper and the
|
||
reason
|
||
for the retraction. The notice is a separate publication, linked to the retracted paper, and
|
||
will be registered as a separate DOI, but published in the journal's latest issue. If the
|
||
result
|
||
is only partially wrong, a partial retraction may be published. <br />
|
||
Only in very exceptional circumstances, the article will be completely removed from the
|
||
website
|
||
and related indexing databases. <br /></p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> 3.Expressions of concern</p>
|
||
|
||
<p> If an editor identifies significant issues with the interpretation or conclusions of a
|
||
published
|
||
article that could influence public understanding or policy, they may issue an Editorial
|
||
Expression of Concern. This notice serves to inform the readership of ongoing, complex
|
||
investigations or immediate concerns relevant to public health or policy. Such expressions
|
||
are
|
||
preliminary and may lead to further editorial actions like corrections or retractions, but
|
||
they
|
||
remain a permanent part of the article's record.</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> Ensuring the integrity of the scholarly record</p>
|
||
|
||
|
||
<p class="item-title"> 1.Plagiarism check</p>
|
||
<p>Traditional Medicine Research utilizes both Crossref Similarity Check and an AI tool
|
||
developed by TMR
|
||
Publishing Group to check for plagiarism in manuscripts. This will effectively help editors
|
||
identify potentially problematic manuscripts. The editors' check of the similarity score is
|
||
comprehensive, including whether the citations are reasonable, whether the sources of
|
||
repetition
|
||
are concentrated or from different sources, and so on. In most cases, the similarity rate of
|
||
accepted articles is below 20%.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class="item-title"> 2.Plagiarism, data fabrication and image manipulation</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> a.Plagiarism</p>
|
||
<p> Plagiarism is not acceptable. Plagiarism includes copying ideas, text, images, or data from
|
||
another source without citing the original source, and even includes articles previously
|
||
published by the author themselves. <br />
|
||
If the design of research or the structure or language of a manuscript is inspired by
|
||
previous
|
||
research, those researches must be explicitly cited.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> b. Data fabrication</p>
|
||
<p> We adopt the Recommended action by COPE for Journal Editors process for handling data
|
||
falsification. <br />
|
||
<a target="_blank"
|
||
href="https://resource-cms.springernature.com/springer-cms/rest/v1/content/4162/data/v2">Suspected
|
||
fabricated data in a submitted manuscript </a><br />
|

<a target="_blank"
|
||
href="https://resource-cms.springernature.com/springer-cms/rest/v1/content/4168/data/v2">Suspected
|
||
fabricated data in a published article </a><br />
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p> c.Image manipulation</p>
|
||
<p> Starting from May 24, 2023, for manuscripts submitted to our journal, authors are expected
|
||
to
|
||
provide the original, unaltered, and uncropped images that support all the blot and gel
|
||
results
|
||
presented in the figures and supporting information files. It is acceptable for the author
|
||
to
|
||
make adjustments to the brightness, contrast, or color balance of the image (if they are
|
||
applied
|
||
to the whole image and if they do not obscure, eliminate, or misrepresent any information
|
||
present in the original, including backgrounds). However, no specific feature within an
|
||
image
|
||
may be enhanced, obscured, moved, removed, or introduced.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title">d. Citation policies</p>
|
||
<p> Excessive self-citation, co-citation by multiple authors, unnecessary citation of articles
|
||
published in submitting journals, and any other form of citation manipulation are
|
||
inappropriate.
|
||
Citation manipulation will result in the manuscript being rejected and possibly reported to
|
||
the
|
||
corresponding author's institution. Likewise, any attempts by reviewers or editors to
|
||
encourage
|
||
such practices should be reported by the author to the publisher.
|
||
<br /> The author should consider the following guidelines when preparing the manuscript:
|
||
<br /> (1). Any statement in the manuscript that relies on an external source of
|
||
information (i.e. not
|
||
the author's own new ideas or findings or general knowledge) should be cited.
|
||
<br /> (2). Author should avoid citing derivative work of the original work.
|
||
<br /> (3). Author should ensure that their citations are accurate.
|
||
<br /> (4). Author should not cite sources they have not read.
|
||
<br /> (5). Author should not use excessive citations to support a point.
|
||
<br />(6). Ideally, author should cite articles from peer-reviewed sources whenever
|
||
possible.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p class="item-title"> Editorial board responsibilities</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
The Editorial Board plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality and integrity of the
|
||
journal.
|
||
Their expanded responsibilities encompass various aspects:
|
||
<br /> Expert Guidance: Members provide essential scientific expertise, shaping the
|
||
journal's content
|
||
and strategic direction.
|
||
<br /> Content Contribution: They actively contribute articles and solicit high-quality
|
||
submissions
|
||
from peers, increasing the journal's breadth and depth.
|
||
<br /> Peer Review: Board members either oversee the peer review process or participate
|
||
directly as
|
||
reviewers, ensuring the rigor and fairness of evaluations.
|
||
<br /> Promotion and Networking: They promote the journal within the scientific community,
|
||
particularly
|
||
at conferences and seminars, to attract groundbreaking manuscripts and foster
|
||
collaborations.
|
||
<br /> Developmental Feedback: Regular feedback on the journal's policies and practices is
|
||
crucial, as
|
||
it helps in refining operational and editorial strategies.
|
||
<br /> Curating Content: They recommend themes for special issues and suggest potential
|
||
authors for
|
||
commissioned pieces, such as review articles and commentaries.
|
||
<br /> Mentorship and Advice: New or existing members can always reach out to their journal
|
||
contact for
|
||
advice on structuring the Editorial Board effectively or resolving any procedural concerns.
