Preparing Supporting Information

To facilitate a smooth and effective submission process, please ensure you have the following information ready before submitting your manuscript:

Author Information

Co-author Details: Please ensure you provide the full names, affiliations, and verified email addresses of all co-authors involved in your manuscript.

Corresponding Author: Clearly designate one corresponding author who will be chiefly responsible for communications during the manuscript submission, peer review, and publication stages.

Cover Letter

Your cover letter should include:

• A justification for why your manuscript merits publication in Zetline Journal of Research in Medical Sciences.

• An explanation addressing any issues pertaining to the journal's policies.

• A declaration of any potential conflicts of interest.

• Confirmation that all authors have approved the manuscript for submission.

• Assurance that the content has not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere (refer to our Ethics Guidelines).

• If submitting to a specific special issue, make sure to mention its exact name in your cover letter.

Suggest Peer Reviewers

As part of the submission process, you can suggest potential peer reviewers for your manuscript. When doing so, provide institutional email addresses or information aiding the editor in verifying the reviewer's identity, such as an ORCID iD. Note that intentionally falsifying information, such as suggesting reviewers with a false name or personal email address, will lead to immediate rejection of your manuscript and may result in further investigation.

Opposed Reviewers

During the submission process, you have the option to enter the details of anyone you would prefer not to review your manuscript due to potential competitive conflicts of interest.
