Original Articles: Original contributions refer to manuscripts that present significant and innovative research findings. Original articles encompass a variety of research types, including observational studies, randomized controlled trials, descriptive studies, intervention studies, evaluations of screening and diagnostic tests, outcome assessments, cost-effectiveness analyses, meta-analyses, systematic reviews, case-control series, experimental studies, and surveys that achieve high response rates. The total word count for original articles should range from 3,000 to 12,000 words, not including the abstract, references, figures, and tables.
