Both have the same guidelines for authors. Both have mostly the same editors.

The About Us and home pages indicate that this is not a journal to turn to for English language editing. It advises us that its purpose "is to enhance the field by offering new basic and clinical research with highlighting on knowledge that will motivation the way medical treatments are practiced." The About Us also page condemns "ethical malpractices" and has this to say about "Human and Animal Rights":
