Post-Publication Discussion

PRISMA supports constructive scholarly discussion of published articles.

Readers, researchers, and the academic community may submit questions, criticism, clarification requests, or responses regarding article content through the journal’s official communication channels.

Post-publication discussion aims to improve the quality of scientific knowledge and ensure that research findings remain open to academic scrutiny.

Every response must be based on scientific argument, data, or verifiable evidence.

Editors evaluate submitted responses and may ask authors to provide clarification.

If a discussion reveals a substantial error, the editor may apply correction or retraction policies according to the severity of the issue.

PRISMA does not accept responses containing personal attacks, discrimination, or unsupported allegations.
