conflict of interest

The International Journal of Advanced Fertility and Reproductive Sciences is committed to transparency and integrity in scholarly publishing. Authors, reviewers, and editors are expected to disclose any financial, professional, personal, or other relationships that could influence, or could reasonably be perceived to influence, the research or publication process.

Authors must disclose all relevant conflicts of interest at the time of manuscript submission. This may include employment, consultancy, research funding, grants, personal financial interests, professional relationships, intellectual property interests, or other affiliations that may affect the interpretation of the work.

If no conflict of interest exists, authors should provide a clear statement confirming that there are no conflicts to declare.

Reviewers and editors must also disclose potential conflicts of interest and should decline involvement when a conflict could compromise their objectivity or impartiality.

The journal may request additional information or clarification regarding disclosed conflicts. Failure to disclose a relevant conflict may result in appropriate editorial action, including correction of the published article or other measures necessary to maintain the integrity of the scholarly record.
