Upon submitting the manuscript, authors must declare whether generative artificial intelligence (AI tools) was used in the preparation of the manuscript, including AI-assisted copyediting, content generation, data analysis, etc.

① AI tools cannot replace human critical thinking and professional judgment; they must be used under human supervision.

② Authors are responsible for the accuracy, completeness, and impartiality of AI-generated content. Thorough review and verification are required, with editorial adaptation to ensure compliance with original contribution requirements.

③ AI tools shall not be listed as authors or co-authors.

④ Declaration is not required for basic grammar/spelling check tools.

Add a new section titled "Declaration on the Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence and AI-Assisted Technologies in Manuscript Preparation". Example: "During the preparation of this work, the authors used [Tool/Service Name] for [purpose]. After using this tool/service, the authors conducted necessary reviews and edits of the content and assume full responsibility for the content of the published article."

The use of generative AI or AI-assisted tools to create or modify figures, images, or artwork in the manuscript is prohibited, unless the AI tool is part of the research methodology (in which case the tool model, version, and manufacturer must be described in detail in the Methods section).
