Declarations of exclusive publication, author contribution, conflict-of-interest and copyright transfer are important formalities required by most biomedical journals. Conflict-of-interest may be personal, commercial, political, academic or financial. It is particularly important for authors to provide a full and complete disclosure of any financial relationship with a commercial organisation that may have an interest in the contents of the submitted manuscript. Editors, editorial board members and reviewers should also declare any possible conflicts-of-interest. The handling of conflict-of-interest during manuscript preparation, peer review and editorial decision making impacts the credibility of published articles and scientific research in general.
声明独家出版、作者贡献、利益冲突和版权转让是大多数生物医学期刊所要求的重要手续。利益冲突可能是个人的、商业的、政治的、学术的或财务的。作者特别需要充分和完整地披露与可能对提交稿件内容感兴趣的商业组织的任何财务关系。编辑、编委会成员和审稿人也应声明任何可能存在的利益冲突。在稿件准备、同行评审和编辑决策过程中处理利益冲突会影响已发表文章和整个科学研究的可信度。
