This question is about writing a mini review where i want to add a schematic from some article after appropriate referencing.Can i do that?
Best way to use figures in a published source is to revise and combine them with something of your own. Because data is not subject to copyright. In this way, you only need to cite the source properly without asking for permission.
If you need to add the same figure already published, you need to get permission from the journal.

Thanks a lot. i interpret that form the attachment and discussion that i can add a schematic from other's work if cited properly in my mini review. Am i right?
Regards
Yes but with minor or major modification. Humans share the same source of data but our ability to interpret it differently gives different information. You still need to cite the original source though.
I suggest to add the schematic representation with some modofications. And yes citation is necessary.
