An exhaustive peer review process is stringently followed. New submissions are assessed and prioritized by the editor-in-chief based on a host of factors primarily the relevance with respect to the aim and scope of the journal, and novelty of the science presented. Other assessment criteria include duplicate submission checks, plagiarism indices, submission of standard checklists like CARE guidelines for case reports and PRISMA checklist for review articles, ethical and compliance statements and English language appropriateness,
Manuscripts are assigned to a team of associate editors for initial evaluation for a week to opine on the suitability of the article for the journal. Based on the overall opinion, articles may be immediately rejected at the initial stage by the EIC or rejected after one week of initial evaluation by the editors. Those warranting review are assigned to associate editors who act as handling editors to oversee the review process before submitting their recommendation to the EIC for final approval.
We follow double-blind peer review process that mandates review by at least two/three subject experts. Manuscripts which mandate a statistical evaluation are sent to the biostatisticians who are the statistical editors.
The reviewers may choose to reject after peer-review at the initial stage or advise revisions. The revised version undergoes further rereviews till the article meets the requisite standards of acceptance or rejection.
