Declaration for Competing Interests
Declaration of Competing Interest
The corresponding author must disclose any conflict of interest such as financial support or personal relationships with the organisations and people that influence the work inappropriately. These declarations must be provided upon gathering all the necessary information from the authors involved in this work and collectively submit a cumulative declaration. The declaration made by the corresponding author is assumed to be correct and the journal bears no responsibility in this regard. Hence, it is important for all the authors (with or without competing interests) to provide the necessary and relevant information to the corresponding author. Consultancies, ownership, honoraria, patent-related registrations/applications, funding or grants received etc. are some of the instances of conflicts of interest.
