Insuficiencia Cardiaca supports transparency, reproducibility, and openness in scientific research and encourages authors to share research data that underpin the findings reported in their manuscripts. The journal recognizes that responsible data sharing enhances the reliability, verification, and reuse of scientific knowledge while promoting collaboration within the cardiovascular research community.

Authors are encouraged to make the datasets, protocols, analytical methods, statistical codes, and other relevant materials underlying their published work available whenever ethically, legally, and practically feasible. Data may be deposited in recognized institutional, disciplinary, or public repositories and should be made accessible in accordance with applicable regulations, ethical considerations, and participant confidentiality requirements.

Where data sharing is restricted due to privacy concerns, informed consent limitations, proprietary considerations, or legal obligations, authors should clearly state the reasons for such restrictions within the manuscript. Authors are also encouraged to include a Data Availability Statement describing where the supporting data can be accessed, the conditions for access, or the reasons why data cannot be publicly shared.

The journal may request access to underlying research data during the editorial or peer review process when necessary to verify findings, address concerns regarding scientific integrity, or facilitate the evaluation of submitted work. Authors remain responsible for ensuring that shared data are accurate, properly anonymized where required, and compliant with applicable ethical standards.

By encouraging responsible data sharing practices, Insuficiencia Cardiaca aims to strengthen research transparency, enhance scientific reproducibility, and support the dissemination of high-quality cardiovascular research.
