Peer Reviewed And Refereed Journal
International Journal of Cardiology and Clinical Research (IJCCR), recognize the importance of data sharing in promoting scientific transparency, reproducibility, and collaboration. Our data sharing policy aims to facilitate the responsible and ethical sharing of research data. The following guidelines outline the principles and procedures followed:
Purpose of Data Sharing
The purpose of the Data Sharing Policy is to:
1. Promote Transparency: Enhance the transparency of research by making data available for verification and further analysis.
2. Facilitate Reproducibility: Enable other researchers to replicate studies and validate findings, contributing to scientific rigor.
3. Advance Knowledge: Encourage the reuse of data for new research, maximizing the impact and utility of research outputs.
Data Sharing Requirements
Data Availability: IJCCR encourage authors to make their research data openly available and authors may provide a data availability statement, including a link to the repository where the data is stored. This statement will be published in the article to ensure transparency and accessibility for readers and researchers.
Data Types: The data-sharing policy of International Journal of Cardiology and Clinical Research (IJCCR) encompasses all relevant data associated with the published manuscript, including but not limited to raw data, processed data, supplementary data, code scripts and metadata. The data may comprise quantitative measurements, qualitative observations, clinical records, survey responses, images and any other relevant data forms.
Data Repositories: Authors must deposit their research data in established and appropriate data repositories. These repositories should be discipline-specific or have sufficient infrastructure and standards for data duration, long-term storage and access. International Journal of Cardiology and Clinical Research (IJCCR) recommends the use of recognized and reputable repositories.
Data Access and Citation: Authors should provide clear instructions on how to access the shared data, including the repository name, accession numbers and any specific access restrictions, if applicable. In the manuscript, authors should include a Data Availability Statement that details where and how the data can be accessed. Proper citation and acknowledgment of the data source should be provided, enabling other researchers to credit the original authors.
