   The decision to assign a reviewer to the article is made by the editor-in-chief or their deputy.

   The manuscript (without the authors' names and affiliation) is sent to the reviewers by the editorial staff, either through a special letter or via the journal’s website.
6. Negative Review:
   If the review is negative, the authors will receive a rejection notice within 10 (ten) days. In this case, the identity of the reviewer is not disclosed, in accordance with ethical rules.
7. Revisions:
   If revisions are required, authors are given 1-2 months (no more than 3 months) to make changes to the article. During this period, the authors will receive a letter outlining the necessary modifications. Once changes are made, the revised version is sent back to the reviewer for re-assessment.
8. Failure to Make Revisions:
   If the authors refuse to make changes or do not send the revised article within 3 months, the article will be excluded from the publication list. In such cases, the editorial board will send a letter to the authors informing them of the removal from the register. Manuscripts sent to the editorial office will not be returned.
9. Disagreement with Reviewer's Conclusion:
   If the authors do not agree with the reviewer's conclusion, upon their request, the article may be re-sent to another reviewer or group of reviewers for a final expert opinion. In such cases, all expert opinions are discussed at a meeting of the editorial board, and the final editorial decision is communicated to the authors within 10 (ten) working days after the meeting.
10. Additional Review Period:
    If the article does not pass the revision process even after changes have been made, the authors may be given an additional period of up to 2 months for re-review. If the expert’s opinion is negative for the third time, the article will not be revised, and the authors will receive a rejection letter within 10 (ten) days.
