Abstract

Health and medical journals have a mission to evaluate and disseminate information generated from rigorous and peer reviewed scientific enquiry. As journal editors, we are entrusted with safeguarding the integrity of the scientific record, supporting the researchers who advance discovery, and honoring the excellence of academic institutions that cultivate rigorous and unbiased inquiry. Maintaining the integrity of the information published in our journals helps ensure that scientists, health professionals, policymakers and the public can benefit from information that is accurate, trustworthy, accessible, and understandable.
