Articles

The Articles section publishes original research articles in midwifery, maternal and reproductive health, and related disciplines. All submitted manuscripts undergo an initial editorial screening to assess their relevance, originality, methodological quality, and compliance with the journal’s requirements. Manuscripts that pass the initial screening are evaluated through a double-blind peer-review process by qualified reviewers with relevant expertise. The final decision regarding acceptance, revision, or rejection is made by the Editor-in-Chief or an authorized editor based on the manuscript’s scientific quality, relevance, and reviewers’ recommendations. Authors are responsible for ensuring that their manuscripts meet the journal’s requirements for originality, research ethics, publication ethics, informed consent where applicable, and authorship.
