The submission cycle has been more than a year, and it was still under review after three major revision, and it took 5 months for each review.

The review process for my BMC series is also particularly long, especially in the external review stage, it seems difficult to find reviewers.

Indeed, the review process is particularly long, and it seems like the editorial team is understaffed. I submitted my manuscript in February 24 and it was only assigned to a handling editor in May. Since then, it has been stuck in the peer review status. I have emailed the editorial team several times to inquire about the progress, but there hasn't been any change. It is possible that my article is not very good, but submitting to this journal requires a lot of patience for the long waiting period.

The review process is too slow, I have been waiting for 10 months with no result yet. I hope for a positive outcome, but be prepared for a long review period if you plan to submit.

Hello, may I ask which company you finally applied to? So sad, my application for a job has been rejected everywhere.

May I ask if the status after the revision is still "passed technical check"? I am not sure if the manuscript is currently with the editor or the reviewer.

In early December 23rd, the peer review is underway, and it now shows that editors' decisions may take several weeks as they may consult peer reviewers. Does anyone know what this means? I have been following the website all along, and it clearly shows invitations to reviewers, but I haven't seen any reviewers agreeing to review. Does the system not show this? Is it necessary to write an email to follow up?

Sharing experience: Submitted on 23-11-22, still waiting for editor invitation, sent reminder emails several times but only received responses saying the invitation is still pending. Be cautious when submitting in a hurry

The submitted article was a case report, which took three and a half months for the first peer review. After receiving comments for revisions, the second review took 20 days. One of the three reviewers did not agree with the revisions, while the other two were satisfied with them. Surprisingly, the article was rejected without giving the authors a chance for further revisions. Sometimes, even reminder emails did not receive responses. Think carefully before submitting your work!

It's too slow, I can't stand it any longer. I can't find the reviewer

(0) Thank | Adam Blake

Changed the editor midway, which affected the speed of finding reviewers. Later, due to other matters, it was not managed, but after finding reviewers, the processing speed was very fast. The revised second review was accepted and published within 2 weeks
