All contributing authors in a study must demonstrate significant intellectual contributions, which includes involvement in the study’s conception, design, data collection, analysis, or interpretation. Authors are also required to participate in drafting or critically revising the manuscript and must provide final approval before publication. Each author should have enough involvement to take public responsibility for their respective contributions and be ready to address any concerns about the accuracy or integrity of the work. Simply securing funding, collecting data, or overseeing research does not justify authorship. Contributors who do not meet the authorship criteria should be appropriately acknowledged. The involvement of scientific writers and their funding sources must also be acknowledged. Meteor Publishing Journals requires written consent from all authors for any changes in manuscript authorship after submission.
All submitted manuscripts must include a section detailing any potential conflicts of interest. If there are no conflicts, the statement “The authors declare no competing interests” should be included. Editors may request additional information regarding conflicts of interest. Editors and reviewers must also disclose any conflicts of interest, and those with conflicts may be excluded from the peer review process.
Editors and reviewers are required to maintain the confidentiality of submitted manuscripts. Meteor Publishing Journals will not share manuscripts with third parties outside of its scope unless there is suspicion of misconduct.
Meteor Publishing Journals supports initiatives that enhance data registration and reporting, such as registering clinical trials in ICMJE-recognized registries. The trial registration number and date should be included in the abstract. Authors are encouraged to register systematic reviews in appropriate registries and adhere to specific checklists for various study types. Ethical considerations regarding unpublished genomic data and clinical datasets are crucial, including obtaining informed consent from participants. Submitting a manuscript implies a commitment to freely share reproducible materials for non-commercial use while ensuring participant confidentiality. Nucleotide sequences, protein sequences, and coordinates should be deposited in appropriate databases, and software described in manuscripts should be available to reviewers, ensuring anonymity.
Manuscripts submitted to Meteor Publishing Journals must be original and not submitted elsewhere. Plagiarism is strictly monitored, and any form of publication misconduct is taken seriously. Authors must comply with ICMJE guidelines on overlapping publications, and excessive self-citation is discouraged. Authors are responsible for ensuring the legal correctness of their work, and Meteor Publishing Journals ensures compliance with copyright laws and editorial standards. Manuscripts that infringe copyright or contain defamatory content will be rejected.
Meteor Publishing Journals takes all allegations of potential misconduct seriously and investigates thoroughly. Suspected cases may require sharing manuscripts with relevant third parties, such as the authors’ institutions and ethics committees. Research involving humans and animals must adhere to ethical standards, and digital images will be scrutinized for any potential manipulation. Suspected misconduct is reported to the authors’ institutions.
Published articles may be corrected or retracted through an Erratum or Retraction, with the original content left unchanged except for the addition of a prominent link. In rare instances, infringing or defamatory material may be removed from the Meteor Publishing Journals website and archives.
