May I ask if your article has been accepted for publication? Mine has been in Initial Submission for 20 days and I am not sure if I should send an email to follow up.

The review process is relatively slow, and it requires several reminders to the editor. The editor is very meticulous and has changed several reviewers, all of whom asked professional questions and even pointed out and corrected grammar errors or imprecise sentences. The entire process is slow, so it is not recommended to submit if in a hurry.

Is this journal invitation only? Why can't I find a submission section? After logging in, it shows "This site only accepts invited submissions."

Heavy research focus: Cardiovascular experience sharing: It's been 5 days since submission, and the editor hasn't been assigned yet. Is this situation common?

The number of corresponding authors for SCI journal papers is not necessarily limited to one, and there is no fixed standard. This is because different SCI journals have different policies regarding the number of corresponding authors. For SCI journals that only accept one corresponding author, if multiple corresponding authors are listed on a paper, the first corresponding author will be automatically selected as the corresponding author. For SCI journals that accept two corresponding authors, two corresponding authors can be listed. The same applies to other requirements, meaning that the number of corresponding authors listed by the authors must comply with the regulations of the target SCI journal. The first author of an SCI paper is the person who has made the greatest contribution to the experiments and writing of the paper and is the person whose name appears first in the list of authors. However, in cases where multiple authors collaborate, it is common to have multiple first authors. There is no clear regulation regarding the number of co-first authors, and this is largely dependent on factors such as the workload of the paper, its length, the regulations of the publishing journal, and the recognition of the authors’ institutions. In general, it is common for an SCI paper to have 2-4 first authors

The corresponding author is the overall responsible person for the research project, responsible for the project's funding, design, writing of articles, and quality control, and responsible for communication with journals during submission, peer review, and the entire publication process

I submitted it on October 8th, and received a reply email at the end of October urging for the draft. There was no email reply last Thursday urging for the draft. Now I see the comments and I am very worried!

Is the magazine going to close down? Not only have there been no updates for nearly five months, but there hasn't been a new article on the magazine's homepage for several months. Are they on a six-month break?

How long does it take for them to include my submission? I didn't realize that my article for 2019 couldn't be searched after half a day of submission. I also don't understand what's going on with this journal
