Ethical Principles and Publication Policy
Ethical Consideration
The editorial board of Archives of Current Medical Research (ACMR) adheres to the highest international standards in publication ethics. Our journal operates in accordance with the guidelines set by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE), the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM), the World Medical Association (WMA), and the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TÜBİTAK). Authors are expected to comply with these standards.
For our journal, it is mandatory that research protocols receive approval from an ethics committee in line with relevant international agreements. Specifically, for medical research involving human subjects, adherence to the "WMA Declaration of Helsinki - Ethical Principles for Medical Research Involving Human Subjects" (latest update: October 2013, Fortaleza, Brazil) is required. Similarly, studies involving animals must comply with the "Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals" (8th edition, 2011). Manuscripts submitted without ethics committee approval will not be considered for evaluation.
Ethics committee approval must be provided for clinical or experimental studies involving humans or animals. This approval must be clearly indicated in the methods section and documented within the article. Along with information on ethical approval (name of the ethics committee, date, and number), statements about informed consent must also be included in the manuscript. Informed consent is especially required for specific types of work, such as case reports.
Adherence to ethical principles throughout every stage of research and publication is crucial for the reliability and integrity of science. ACMR is committed to taking all necessary measures against breaches of ethics, thereby contributing positively to the scientific community.

Guidelines for Using Artificial Intelligence Tools in Academic Publications
ACMR is dedicated to maintaining the integrity and quality of published content in light of the changing landscape of scholarly publishing and the incorporation of advanced technologies, including the ethical use of artificial intelligence (AI). We set the following rules for using AI in line with the WAME Recommendations on Chatbots and Generative Artificial Intelligence in Relation to Scholarly Publications:
-Authors must reveal any major roles that AI tools played in the research and writing process. This includes, but is not limited to, making text, analyzing data, or making visual materials.
-Using AI should not take away from the originality of the work that was submitted. Authors are responsible for the content they create and must make sure that AI-generated content is properly credited, following all applicable copyright laws and academic standards.
-AI can help with writing and editing, but authors must make sure that the AI-generated content is accurate, well-understood, and scientifically sound. Writers should carefully look for biases and mistakes in AI outputs.
-Authors should not depend only on AI tools to do their critical thinking, peer review, and academic work. It is important to uphold ethical standards to make sure that the work is real and has academic value.
-AI should make scholarly work more accessible and open to everyone. Authors should think about how AI can make their research easier to read and understand for a variety of audiences without lowering the quality of the content.
