To facilitate this, authors need to ensure that their manuscripts are structured in a way that does not reveal their identity.

If two reviews are returned to the editor within the stipulated review period and their comments are consistent, an Editorial decision will be made accordingly. This is to prevent delays or disturbances caused by reviewers.
