The Editorial Board of the Journal has digitized the "Statement of Originality and Submission Information" submission, effective April 2023.

Instead of authors submitting statement files, upon the receipt of a manuscript, an email, “Request for e-form Submission”, from the submission site will be sent to all authors, with a link to the form (the relevant input screen on the website) requesting their consent.

All authors are requested to tick the checkbox on the designated web-based input screen and agree to each declaration. When all authors have given their consent, the review of the manuscript will begin.
