Is there a bug in the review system? The manuscript was sent to 7 reviewers in the first review, and more than 50 questions were raised in total... The review speed was very fast, and the revision opinions were returned within 3 weeks... I have never met so many reviewers. Have your manuscripts all been like this lately?

Submitted on December 4; the first review comments returned on December 23, but the editor did not send me comments till February. My every inquiry got an official reply. The editor who replied to me was not the same person as the managing editor. I urged the editor every day to ask the managing editor for me, but there was still no result. It is said that some innovative contents can be accepted within two months, and those articles that are with editor and they do not reply are what they do not value.

It feels terrible! The review was really fast, and it was completed within ten days. Then it was sent to the editor for a decision. It has been 25 days, and I can’t stand it anymore. I urged for the manuscript twice, they responded with a friendly attitude, which was of no use. The reply was very official. It also feels bad. Now this journal is getting slower and slower, the editing efficiency is particularly low, and it has been procrastinating. It feels like it disrespects the reviewers and makes the reviewers rush to review the manuscript. But when it was sent back to the editor, it became very slow. Four or five months are needed for the whole process. Later submissions need to be cautious.

Very slow. Massive editorial department problems. Multiple times submissions did not go through. Easy acceptance, but low quality.

Can only one person accept the review, will more reviewers be invited later, or will the submission be rejected due to insufficient reviewers?

Overall, the processing speed is relatively slow, but the editors are very friendly.

Overall slow process. Submitted in March of the 24th year, the editor returned the manuscript in May, saying that a figure was not labeled and needed to be added (although it was actually labeled). This wasted two months. Officially submitted for review on 5-28, one reviewer immediately responded with comments, while the other reviewer delayed until 7-23. The editor decided to give a deadline for revisions by 8-30. It took 14 days to make the revisions and send them back (9-15), and then the editor provided feedback on formatting suggestions (which was usually replied to on the same day). Entered the final decision stage on 9-20, and officially accepted on 10-23. Not recommended for submitting graduation articles, as it was a very torturous process.

Submitted on May 14, 2024, it took a long time for the Editorial Team to reply and request for the original data. The process involved multiple rounds of providing and re-providing the data until the Editorial Team contact person changed (thank goodness the previous lady was on vacation!). On July 31, 2024, the article was under review. On September 2, 2024, the review comments were returned, requesting revisions. A response letter was sent on September 19, 2024. On September 25, 2024, 2 images were resubmitted as requested due to high pixelation. Finally, on September 26, 2024, the article was accepted for publication.

Despite encountering some trouble with the initial contact during the first stage, the review process was relatively quick, and the editorial team demonstrated high efficiency with timely email updates at each stage. Overall, the impression was quite positive. This being the second article, although the impact factor has slightly decreased in recent years, I still believe it is good enough for graduation purposes.

We need the original WB data. It doesn't have to be rejected outright, depending on the situation and the editor's discretion.

No external review will be conducted but some people may request one, the chief editor decides

Hello, may I ask how long your 4bd status has been maintained? Are you sending it for external review again?

(0) Thank | xiaoxiaoxin

Re-submitting to different reviewers is not a guarantee. The probability of acceptance is not high if both reviewers have already rejected the paper
