Abstract
Objective: Endoparasitic diseases continue to cause significant morbidity and economic losses in small ruminants across diverse climatic and geographical regions worldwide. This study was conducted to determine the current prevalence of endoparasitic infections affecting small ruminant production in the province of Siirt, to identify interspecies differences, and to evaluate the region-specific epidemiological profile. Materials and Methods: The study was carried out between September and December 2024 in livestock enterprises located in the Siirt city center and six surrounding districts. Fecal samples from a total of 500 small ruminants (250 sheep and 250 goats) were collected under sterile conditions and examined using the Fülleborn’s flotation, Modified Benedek sedimentation, and Baermann–Wetzel techniques. Species, age, sex, and location data for each animal were recorded, and the results were evaluated statistically. Results: Overall endoparasite positivity was 38.8% in sheep and 62.40% in goats. Trichostrongylidae spp. infection was significantly higher in goats (50%) than in sheep (p<0.001). Eimeria spp. and Metastrongylidae spp. infections were also detected more frequently in goats (21.60%), and the differences between species were statistically significant (p<0.001). Trichuris spp. was identified only in sheep (2.00%), representing a significant interspecies difference (p<0.05). Age-based evaluation revealed that Trichostrongylidae spp. and Metastrongylidae spp. infections were more prevalent in animals aged ≥2 years (p<0.001). According to sex, both Trichostrongylidae spp. and Metastrongylidae spp. infections were significantly more common in females (p<0.05). Location-based analysis indicated significant variation in the distribution of Trichostrongylidae spp., Eimeria spp., and Metastrongylidae spp. (p<0.001). Additionally, the prevalence of mixed infections involving two or three parasite species varied significantly by species and location (p<0.01). Conclusion: Endoparasitic infections in small ruminants in Siirt province were found to be highly prevalent and exhibited significant variation according to species, age, sex, and location. These findings emphasize the need for targeted and sustainable parasite control strategies in the region. Furthermore, regulating antiparasitic drug use and supporting studies focused on monitoring therapeutic efficacy and resistance development are considered essential.

Aim & Scope
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Veterinary Research (TJVR) is to publish, in a timely manner, peer-reviewed reports of the highest quality research that has the clear potential to enhance the health, welfare, and performance of animals and humans. The journal will maintain the highest ethical standards of scientific journalism and promote such standards among its contributors. In addition, the journal will foster global interdisciplinary cooperation in veterinary medical research.
The Turkish Journal of Veterinary Research supports the collaborative exchange of information between researchers and clinicians by publishing novel research findings that bridge the gulf between basic research and clinical practice or that help to translate laboratory research and preclinical studies to the development of clinical trials and clinical practice. The journal welcomes submission of high-quality original studies, review articles and other academic papers in a wide range of scientific fields, including anatomy, anesthesiology, animal welfare, behavior, epidemiology, genetics, heredity, infectious disease, molecular biology, oncology, pharmacology, pathogenic mechanisms, physiology, surgery, theriogenology, toxicology, and vaccinology. Species of interest include production animals, companion animals, equids, exotic animals, birds, reptiles, and wild and marine animals. Reports of laboratory animal studies and studies involving the use of animals as experimental models of human diseases are considered only when the study results are of demonstrable benefit to the species used in the research or to another species of veterinary interest. Other fields of interest or animal species are not necessarily excluded from consideration, but such reports must focus on novel research findings. Submitted papers must make an original and substantial contribution to the veterinary medicine knowledge base.

Prior Publication
Authorship: Individuals should be listed as authors only if they
(1) made a substantial contribution to the conception and design of the study, the acquisition of the data used in the study, or the analysis and interpretation of that data;
(2) were involved in drafting or revising the manuscript critically for important intellectual content; and
(3) approved the submitted version of the manuscript and will have an opportunity to approve subsequent revisions of the manuscript, including the version to be published.
Each individual listed as an author must have participated sufficiently to take public responsibility for the work. Acquisition of funding, collection of data, or general supervision of the research team does not, alone, justify authorship.
All responsibility for the scientific content and statements in an article published in the TJVR belongs to the authors.
A manuscript containing previously published information may be rejected on the grounds of prior publication. Publication of abstracts containing less than 250 words will not be considered to constitute prior publication, but publication of longer abstracts may be. Authors are encouraged to consult the guidelines for preparation of scientific abstracts when preparing scientific abstracts for publication. In general, figures, tables, footnotes, and references should not be included in abstracts.
At the time of manuscript submission, the corresponding author must include copies of any abstracts of the manuscript that have been published or submitted for publication or that are expected to be submitted for publication, along with copies of any closely related manuscripts or manuscripts with substantially similar content.
The Editor-in-Chief has the discretion to reject the manuscript straight off before or after sending it to the reviewers for reviewing.
Review Process
1. The works sent to the journal are primarily subject to editorial evaluation in terms of the suitability of the journal's purpose and scope, compliance with the spelling rules and instructions for authors.
At this stage, works that are not suitable for the purpose and scope of the journal are returned to the authors.
Works that do not comply with the spelling rules and instruction for authors format are returned to the authors for correction and re-upload.
A manuscript is received with the understanding that the information has not been published or submitted for publication in any compiled printed (eg, journals, symposia, proceedings, newsletters, or books) or electronic (eg, websites, CD-ROMs, DVDs, or blogs) format in English or any other language and will not be published or submitted for publication elsewhere while the manuscript is under consideration by TJVR.
2. For evaluated works, the editor determines two reviewers suitable for the subject and nature of the work and starts the reviewer process.
3. Reviewers are given a 15 days evaluation period. At the end of this period, the reviewers who do not complete the evaluation or upload the evaluation report are terminated and new reviewers are determined.
4. According to the results of the reviewer evaluation, the works that are not found appropriate to be published are returned to the authors. The authors are informed whose works accepted for publication and the study is published in the next issue.
5. The authors are given 30 days for the works that the reviewers want to be corrected. During this period, the needed corrections should be made and uploaded to the journal system. If this period, which is given to the authors, is exceeded, the process of the study is terminated and it should be uploaded as a new article from the beginning.
6. if it is needed the uploaded revised version in the given time is redirected to the reviewer and the second step reviewer process is started; if the reviewer did not want to see the corrected version of the work, the editor makes the decision on the publication.
7. During the second step evaluation process, the corrections made by the authors are evaluated by the reviewers and the reviewers inform the editor about their final decisions about the study.
8. The editor informs the authors regarding the publishing process according to this decision.

Ethical Policy
Publication Ethics
Conflicts of Interest and Financial Disclosures
A conflict of interest exists whenever an individual has financial interests or personal relationships that might consciously or unconsciously influence his or her decisions. Conflicts of interest are ubiquitous and cannot be completely eliminated; they do not, by themselves, indicate improper behavior, wrongdoing, or scientific misconduct.
Financial relationships are the most easily identifiable conflicts of interest and include, among other things, ownership, employment, consultancies, honoraria, paid expert testimony, grants, patents, stock ownership or options, and service as an officer or board member. Other types of conflicts of interest include personal relationships, academic competition, and intellectual beliefs.
All authors must disclose in the Acknowledgments section of the manuscript any financial or personal relationships that could be perceived to influence or could give the appearance of influencing information in the submitted manuscript. This includes detailed information about all relevant financial interests, activities, relationships, and affiliations (other than affiliations listed on the title page of the manuscript) occurring at the present time or within the 3 years prior to manuscript submission. In this context, relevant financial interests, activities, relationships, and affiliations should be interpreted broadly. For example, authors should disclose relationships they have not only with companies that manufacture products that are the subject of research described in the manuscript but also with companies that manufacture competing products. If no such conflicts of interest existed, the following statement or an equivalent may be included:
The authors declare that there were no conflicts of interest.
The editors reserve the right to reject any manuscript because of conflicts of interest. Failure to fully disclose conflicts of interest may be grounds for rejection or retraction of the manuscript.
Conflicts of interest of authors, reviewers, editors and the journal will handling with principles of the COPE.
