Authorship
All authors must contribute substantially to the work, take part in writing or substantive revision, approve the final version, and accept accountability. Apply all four ICMJE authorship criteria together. Contributors who do not meet them should be acknowledged with permission.
Contribution statement
Provide each author's roles using the CRediT taxonomy where appropriate. Identify the corresponding author and supply affiliations and ORCID identifiers when available. Changes to authorship require a written explanation and agreement from all affected authors.
Responsibility
Authors remain responsible for accuracy, attribution, confidentiality, and all submitted material. Authorship disputes that editors cannot resolve may require institutional assessment.
