In cases of serious violations (plagiarism, data fabrication, duplicate publication, major errors etc.), the editorial board reserves the right to retract an article.

The decision on retraction is made by the editorial board after conducting an investigation and communicating with the authors. Such articles remain accessible in the journal’s archive with a clear “Retracted” mark and an explanation of the reasons for retraction.

An official retraction notice is published on the journal’s website and in the next issue of the journal.
