The manuscript must begin with an abstract in proper English, followed by the Introduction, Methods, Results and Discussion, Conclusion, and other relevant sections. The main text (from Abstract to Conclusion, excluding references, tables, and figures) of an original research article should not exceed 6,000 words. Review articles should not exceed 7,000 words, except for systematic reviews or meta-analyses, which may be allowed up to 10,000 words with prior editorial approval.
