Please note that these forms may be updated from time to time.

All authors are also required to disclose any use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and AI-assisted tools in all submissions to the Philippine Journal of Orthopaedics. Authors are strongly advised to review the full policy on the use of AI, available at:
