Articles published in PJD undergo a double-blind peer-review process. All submissions must be written in English, original, unpublished, and not under consideration for publication elsewhere. The PJD Editorial Board will screen for plagiarism using a Plagiarism Detector Program. Manuscripts with a plagiarism level exceeding 20% will be automatically rejected. The final decision regarding the acceptance of a scientific article rests with the Editorial Board, based on the recommendations of peer reviewers.

Prior to the submission, all authors should follow the journal template and complete the article and author metadata required in the article submission in a complete and valid manner; otherwise, the article would not be considered for further processing. All submitted manuscripts will be analyzed by Turnitin to avoid any intolerable possibility of plagiarism. References management is preferably conducted using Mendeley, following the Vancouver superscript writing guideline. All keywords are selected based on the terms included in MeSH.
