Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Machine Design and Manufacturing understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijmdm uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijmdm explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijmdm will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijmdm provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijmdm is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijfdm explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijfdm will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijfdm provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijfdm is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijlpa is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijlpa, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.

ijlpa‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

International Journal of Environmental Planning and Development Architecture understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijepda uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijepda explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijepda will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijepda provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.

The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.

Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijudd‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

International Journal of Sustainable Building Technology understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijsbt uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijsbt explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijsbt will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijsbt provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijsbt is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Housing and Human Settlement Planning understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijhhsp uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijhhsp explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijhhsp will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijhhsp provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijhhsp is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijhhsp, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.

It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijhhsp‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article

Research & Reviews: A Journal of Pharmacognosy understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
rrjopc uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to rrjopc explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
rrjopc will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with rrjopc provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of rrjopc is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

ijcbcp will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijcbcp provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijcbcp is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijcbb is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijcbb, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.

ijcbb‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

International Journal of Genetic Engineering and Recombination understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijger uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijger explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijger will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijger provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.

The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences

It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijpb‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

International Journal of Industrial Biotechnology and Biomaterials understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijibb uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijibb explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijibb will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijibb provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijibb is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Journal of Polymer and Composites understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
jopc uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to jopc explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
jopc will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with jopc provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of jopc is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to etce explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
etce will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with etce provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of etce is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijcst is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijpcip, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijpcip‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results
Replacement of images or figures that were inaccurately or inappropriately presented in the original article
Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Chemical and Molecular Engineering understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijcme uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijcme explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijcme will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijcme provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijcme is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Environmental Chemistry understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijec uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijec explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijec will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijec provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijec is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Thermodynamics and Chemical Kinetics understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijtck uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijtck explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijtck will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijtck provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijtck is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ttea explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ttea will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ttea provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ttea is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of rtcet is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At joost, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
joost‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results
Replacement of images or figures that were inaccurately or inappropriately presented in the original article
Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement

Journal of Geotechnical Engineering understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
joge uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to joge explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
joge will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with joge provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of joge is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Transportation Engineering and Traffic System understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijtets uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijtets explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijtets will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijtets provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijtets is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Geological and Geotechnical Engineering understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijgge uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijgge explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijgge will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijgge provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijgge is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijcspl explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijcspl will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijcspl provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijcspl is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijippr is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijisse explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijisse will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijsct, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijsct‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results
Replacement of images or figures that were inaccurately or inappropriately presented in the original article
Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement

Article Withdrawal Policy

International Journal of Wireless Network Security understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijwns uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijwns explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijwns will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijwns provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijwns is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Journal of Advances in Shell Programming understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
joasp uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to joasp explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
joasp will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with joasp provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of joasp is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At joasp, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision

It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
joasp‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Journal of Image Processing & Pattern Recognition Progress understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
joipprp uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to joipprp explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
joipprp will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with joipprp provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of joipprp is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement

If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to joosd explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
joosd will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with joosd provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of joosd is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of jowet is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At jowet, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.

Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
jowet‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios

Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement

Recent Trends in Parallel Computing understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
rtpc uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to rtpc explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
rtpc will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with rtpc provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.

If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Current Trends in Information Technology understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ctit uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ctit explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ctit will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ctit provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ctit is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Journal of Communication Engineering & Systems understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
joces uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to joces explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
joces will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with joces provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of joces is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At joces, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.

Article Replacement
joces‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to joci explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
joci will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with joci provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of joci is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijaem is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijaic, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijaic‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results

Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Power Electronics Controllers and Converters understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijpecc uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijpecc explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijpecc will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijpecc provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijpecc is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction.

If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Journal of Electronic Design Technology understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
joedt uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to joedt explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
joedt will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with joedt provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of joedt is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Journal of Semiconductor Devices and Circuits understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
josdc uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to josdc explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
josdc will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with josdc provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of josdc is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to jomea explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
jomea will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with jomea provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of jomea is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of rtsrt is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijrfd explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijeset, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijeset‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results
Replacement of images or figures that were inaccurately or inappropriately presented in the original article
Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement
To request article withdrawal, replacement, retraction, or removal, follow the guidelines of the Journal or publisher where the article was published. Typically, the process involves the following steps:

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Digital Electronics understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijde uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijde explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijde will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijde provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijde is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Satellite Communication Remote Sensing understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijscrs uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijscrs explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijscrs will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijscrs provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijscrs is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Solid State Materials understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijssm uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijssm explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijssm will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijssm provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijssm is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to joeecc explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
joeecc will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with joeecc provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of joeecc is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of jhrlp is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At jbil, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
jbil‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results
Replacement of images or figures that were inaccurately or inappropriately presented in the original article
Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement
To request article withdrawal, replacement, retraction, or removal, follow the guidelines of the Journal or publisher where the article was published. Typically, the process involves the following steps:

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
National Journal of Real Estate Law understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
njrel uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to njrel explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
njrel will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with njrel provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of njrel is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Journal of Constitutional Law and Jurisprudence understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
jclj uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to jclj explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
jclj will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with jclj provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of jclj is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

National Journal of Labour and Industrial Law understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
njlil uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to njlil explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
njlil will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with njlil provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of njlil is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to jcmsl explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
jcmsl will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with jcmsl provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of jcmsl is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction.

We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
rrjoast uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to rrjoast explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
rrjoast will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.

Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.

rrjofst‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
Research & Reviews : Journal of Dairy Science & Technology understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
rrjodst uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to rrjodst explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
rrjodst will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with rrjodst provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of rrjodst is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Research & Reviews : A Journal of Life Sciences understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
rrjols uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to rrjols explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
rrjols will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with rrjols provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of rrjols is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Journal of Advancements in Library Sciences understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
joals uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to joals explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
joals will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with joals provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of joals is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to njbeec explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
njbeec will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with njbeec provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of njbeec is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At njbeec, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.

njbeec‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article

Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.

The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of njsclm is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At njhrmd, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
njhrmd‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results
Replacement of images or figures that were inaccurately or inappropriately presented in the original article
Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement
To request article withdrawal, replacement, retraction, or removal, follow the guidelines of the Journal or publisher where the article was published. Typically, the process involves the following steps:

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
NOLEGEIN Journal of Information Technology & Management understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
njitm uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to njitm explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
njitm will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with njitm provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of njitm is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

NOLEGEIN Journal of Organizational Behavior Management understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
njobm uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to njobm explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
njobm will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with njobm provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of njobm is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

NOLEGEIN Journal of Advertising and Brand Management understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
njabm uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to njabm explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
njabm will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with njabm provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of njabm is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article.

The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijem explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijem will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijem provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijem is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijcct is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At joeam, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
joeam‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results
Replacement of images or figures that were inaccurately or inappropriately presented in the original article
Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement
To request article withdrawal, replacement, retraction, or removal, follow the guidelines of the Journal or publisher where the article was published. Typically, the process involves the following steps:

Journal of Mechatronics and Automation understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
joma uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to joma explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
joma will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with joma provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of joma is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Journal of Refrigeration, Air conditioning, Heating and ventilation understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
jorachv uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to jorachv explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
jorachv will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with jorachv provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of jorachv is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijmmp uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijmmp explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijmmp will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijmmp provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijmmp is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijcam explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijcam will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijcam provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijcam is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijra is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At rrjoi, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
rrjoi‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results
Replacement of images or figures that were inaccurately or inappropriately presented in the original article
Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement
To request article withdrawal, replacement, retraction, or removal, follow the guidelines of the Journal or publisher where the article was published. Typically, the process involves the following steps:
Contact the Journal or publisher’s editorial office or customer service department and explain the situation. Provide the article title, author names, and any relevant details.

Research & Reviews : A Journal of Medical Science and Technology understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
rrjomst uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to rrjomst explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
rrjomst will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with rrjomst provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of rrjomst is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Research & Reviews: A Journal of Health Professions understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
rrjohp uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to rrjohp explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
rrjohp will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with rrjohp provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of rrjohp is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Research & Reviews: A Journal of Toxicology understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
rrjot uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to rrjot explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
rrjot will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with rrjot provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of rrjot is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to rrjosst explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
rrjosst will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with rrjosst provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of rrjosst is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of nts is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijnn, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijnn‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article

Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journals of Nanobiotechnology understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijnb uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijnb explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijnb will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijnb provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijnb is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

International Journal of Immunological Nursing understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijin uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijin explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijin will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijin provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijin is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Orthopedic Nursing and Practices understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijornp uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijornp explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijornp will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijornp provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijornp is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijpn explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijpn will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijpn provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijpn is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijnspr is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijwhnp, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijwhnp‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results
Replacement of images or figures that were inaccurately or inappropriately presented in the original article
Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement
To request article withdrawal, replacement, retraction, or removal, follow the guidelines of the Journal or publisher where the article was published. Typically, the process involves the following steps:

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Medical Surgical Nursing understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijmsn uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijmsn explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijmsn will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijmsn provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijmsn is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Research & Reviews: A Journal of Pharmacology understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
rrjop uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to rrjop explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
rrjop will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with rrjop provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of rrjop is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Trends in Drug Delivery understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
tdd uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to tdd explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
tdd will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with tdd provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of tdd is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to rrjophy explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
rrjophy will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with rrjophy provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of rrjophy is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

rrjophy‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijbbr is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

International Journal of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijbcb uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijbcb explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijbcb will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijbcb provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijppc, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijppc‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.

International Journal of Midwifery Nursing And Practices understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijmnp uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijmnp explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijmnp will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijmnp provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijmnp is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Electrical and Communication Engineering Technology understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijecet uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijecet explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijecet will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijecet provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijecet is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Information Security Engineering understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijise uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijise explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijise will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijise provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijise is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijwsn explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijwsn will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijwsn provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijwsn is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijmdsa is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijarat, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.

Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijarat‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Environmental Noise and Pollution Control understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijenpc uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijenpc explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijenpc will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijenpc provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijenpc is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

International Journal of Energy and Thermal Applications understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijeta uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijeta explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijeta will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijeta provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijeta is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Mineral understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijmi uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijmi explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijmi will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijmi provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijmi is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijfs explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijfs will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijfs provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijfs is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijv is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

International Journal of Toxins understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijtn uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijtn explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijtn will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijtn provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.

Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijab, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijab‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results
Replacement of images or figures that were inaccurately or inappropriately presented in the original article
Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement
To request article withdrawal, replacement, retraction, or removal, follow the guidelines of the Journal or publisher where the article was published. Typically, the process involves the following steps:
Contact the Journal or publisher’s editorial office or customer service department and explain the situation. Provide the article title, author names, and any relevant details.
Depending on the situation, the Journal or publisher may require you to fill out a formal request form or provide additional documentation.
If the request is approved, the Journal or publisher will typically issue a formal letter of withdrawal, replacement, retraction, or removal, and take the necessary steps to remove the article from their online platform or other databases.
If the Journal or publisher does not agree to the request, they will provide an explanation for their decision.
It is important to note that there may be fees associated with some requests, such as manuscript withdrawal charges or replacement fees. Be sure to check the Journal or publisher’s policy regarding these fees before making a request.
Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Fungi understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijf uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijf explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijf will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijf provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijf is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Cheminformatics understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijci uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijci explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijci will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijci provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijci is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At ijci, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision

It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
ijci‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

International Journal of Sustainability understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijsu uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijsu explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijsu will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijsu provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijsu is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

The author needs to submit a written letter to ijl explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijl will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijl provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijl is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.

Article Replacement
ijssir‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

International Journal of Optical Innovations & Research understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijoir uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijoir explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijoir will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijoir provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijoir is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Emerging Trends in Languages understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
etl uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to etl explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
etl will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with etl provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of etl is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijcc explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijcc will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijcc provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijcc is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijml is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

Article Removal
Manuscript removal is a serious matter that should only be considered in exceptional circumstances. At etm, we have a policy in place for manuscript removal to ensure the integrity of our publications and safeguard the interests of our readers, authors, and publishers.
Grounds for removal
A manuscript may be removed from our publication if it contains material that is defamatory, fraudulent, or otherwise in breach of our ethical standards or legal requirements.
Notification
If we become aware of any grounds for removal, we will notify the author(s) and the publisher(s) of the manuscript, giving them an opportunity to respond.
Investigation
We will conduct an investigation into the matter and assess whether the grounds for removal are justified. We may seek expert advice or consult our editorial board in this process.
Decision
If we determine that the grounds for removal are justified, we will make a decision to remove the manuscript from our publication. We will notify the author(s) and publisher(s) of this decision and provide reasons for it.
Consequences
Manuscript removal will result in the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s) of the manuscript, including banning them from submitting future manuscripts to our Journals.
It is important to note that manuscript removal is a serious step that we take only as a last resort. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.
Article Replacement
etm‘s policy regarding article replacement is that it is not a common practice and is usually only considered in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the editorial office of the Journal in which the article was published and request a correction or retraction. If the error is significant and cannot be corrected through a simple correction, and the author can provide a corrected version of the article, then the editorial board may consider replacing the original article with the corrected version. However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.
Scenerios
Correction of errors or omissions in the original article
Addition of new data or findings that significantly change the conclusions or implications of the article
Revision of the methodology or analysis that affects the validity or reliability of the article’s results
Replacement of images or figures that were inaccurately or inappropriately presented in the original article
Translation of the article into another language to reach a broader audience
Republishing the article with a new title or formatting to enhance its visibility or accessibility
Reprinting the article in a collection or anthology for academic or scholarly purposes.
Expressions of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Any other condition that significantly impacts the article’s integrity but does not conclusively warrant withdrawal or retraction at the moment.
Grounds for Issuing an Expression of Concern
Expressions of Concern are issued in situations where there is significant evidence of:
Allegations or evidence of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication, falsification, plagiarism).
PSignificant errors or inaccuracies pending correction.
Ethical issues concerning research participants or consent.
Disputes about authorship, conflicts of interest, or funding sources that may affect the interpretation of the findings.
Ongoing investigations by institutions or third parties that have not yet reached a conclusion.
Process and Resolution
Preliminary Assessment:Upon identifying a potential issue that may warrant an Expression of Concern, the editorial team conducts a preliminary assessment and may engage with the authors, institutions involved, or external experts.
Notification and Response:The corresponding author will be notified of the concerns and given an opportunity to respond or address the issues identified.
Issuing the Expression:If the concerns are deemed significant and unresolved, the journal will issue an Expression of Concern, clearly detailing the nature of the concerns and indicating that the matter is under investigation or review.
Linking and Accessibility:The Expression of Concern will be linked to the original article and made accessible to all readers, ensuring transparency.
Final Resolution: Depending on the outcome of the investigation or resolution of the concerns, the Expression of Concern may be updated or followed by a retraction, correction, or statement of exoneration, as appropriate.
Requesting Article Changes: Withdrawal, Retraction, Removal, and Replacement
To request article withdrawal, replacement, retraction, or removal, follow the guidelines of the Journal or publisher where the article was published. Typically, the process involves the following steps:

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Trends in Horticulture understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijthc uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijthc explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijthc will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijthc provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijthc is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

However, this decision will ultimately be made by the editorial board and will depend on the nature of the error and the impact it has on the article. It is important to note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is only considered in exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover the cost of the replacement process.

Article Withdrawal Policy
Last updated: 2022-04-30
International Journal of Biomedical Innovations and Engineering understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijbie uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijbie explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijbie will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijbie provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijbie is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Toxins and Toxics understand the significance of upholding the integrity and comprehensiveness of the scholarly record for the benefit of researchers and librarians. We are deeply committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.
ijtt uphold the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles are to be published with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies set forth by the Journal’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations concerning issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions taken in exceptional circumstances where there is clear evidence of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility of deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the policies of the Journal’s editorial board and legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, which serves as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to contain data fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism, it may be retracted to maintain the integrity of the scientific record.
Serious errors: If an article contains serious errors or inaccuracies that invalidate the findings or conclusions, it may be retracted to prevent dissemination of incorrect information.
Misconduct: If an author is found to have engaged in scientific misconduct, such as manipulation of data, conflicts of interest, or undisclosed funding sources, the article may be retracted.
Legal issues: If an article contains material that infringes on copyright, libel, or other legal issues, it may be removed to prevent legal action against the publisher or author.
Safety concerns: If an article contains information that may pose a risk to public health or safety, it may be retracted or removed.
Consequences
If the author, conference organizers, or a third party requests to withdraw a manuscript within a week of the acknowledgment email, there will be no withdrawal penalty.
However, if the manuscript has already been submitted to a Journal for processing, the request for withdrawal will not be entertained without a withdrawal penalty.
The author needs to submit a written letter to ijtt explaining the reason for withdrawal along with Manuscript Withdrawal Charges.
ijtt will provide the author with a formal letter of Manuscript Withdrawal only after the withdrawal penalty has been paid in full.
Authors are allowed to publish other manuscripts with ijtt provided they follow the manuscript submission guidelines.
Measures
Ensure that the manuscript does not infringe on any copyrights.
Obtain consent from all authors in the group for submission.
Ensure that students and researchers have obtained prior permission from their guides and professors before submitting their manuscripts to Journals.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been published partially or completely in any other Journal.
Properly withdraw the manuscript from any previous publishers if necessary.
Confirm that the manuscript has not been submitted to any other Journal at the time of submission to the current Journal.
Avoid redundant publication, meaning publishing multiple similar manuscripts based on the same experiment.
Article retraction states that the editor of a Journal is responsible for deciding whether to retract an article. The decision to retract an article is taken in exceptional circumstances, such as in cases of fraudulent data or unethical research. If a retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that clearly identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. The retraction notice will be linked to the original article and will be prominently displayed on the Journal’s website. The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is clearly marked as “retracted” in all versions of the article, including those in the Journal’s archives. The Journal will also inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction. In cases where the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, the Journal will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.
Scenerios
Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal issues: If an article is found to violate copyright laws or contain defamatory content, it may be retracted.
Consequences
Manuscript retraction is an important matter in scholarly publishing. The aim of ijtt is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record, and therefore we have established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.
Retractions may be necessary if:
There is clear evidence that the findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including but not limited to data fabrication or manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
The manuscript has been published in error, such as due to a technical or administrative issue.
In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the editor of the Journal, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, taking into account any relevant input and guidelines from external bodies. If a manuscript is retracted, it will be clearly marked as such, and a notice of retraction will be published prominently in the Journal, along with a clear explanation of the reason(s) for the retraction. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record, but will be clearly marked as retracted and its content should not be used or cited.
