• Drafting the article or critically revising it for important intellectual content.
• Final approval of the version to be published.
• Agreement to be accountable for all aspects of the work, ensuring that questions related to the accuracy or integrity of any part of the work are appropriately investigated and resolved.

Authors must meet all the criteria above to be considered authors.

Artificial intelligence and authorship

Artificial intelligence tools, including language models (e.g., ChatGPT), do not currently meet authorship criteria. Any use of such tools must be transparently declared in the “Use of artificial intelligence” section on the first page of the manuscript, specifying the tool used, its version, and the specific purpose of its use.
