Regarding the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI).

- The use of generative AI/LLM tools to write any part of an article, including abstract generation or literature review, is not permitted. Generating or reporting results using generative AI/LLM tools is not allowed, and the inclusion of statistical reporting in the text using generative AI/LLM tools is also prohibited.

- Editing an article using generative AI/LLM tools to improve its language and readability is permitted. This reflects standard tools already employed for improving spelling and grammar and utilizes existing material created by the author, rather than generating entirely new content, while the author(s) remain responsible for the original work.

- The submission and publication of images created by AI tools or large-scale generative models are not allowed.
