The submission status of medical sci papers is as follows: 10:
1. Submitted to Journal When uploading is completed, the displayed status is Submitted to Journal, which is naturally formed and has not been processed.
2. If an editor does not ask to choose an editor when submitting a manuscript, go to the editor-in-chief first, and the editor-in-chief will assign it to other editors. There will be two other states: ① the editor appoints the editor; ② the editor refuses the invitation, and the editor-in-chief has to reassign the contributed article to other editors.
3. "Invited reviewers" means that the editor has taken over and is inviting reviewers. Sometimes this process will last for a long time. If the reason is that the editor has not found a suitable reviewer, then the contributor can recommend the reviewer to the editor.
4. The comments of the reviewer who is "reviewing" have been uploaded, indicating that the reviewer has accepted the review and is reviewing. This should be a long wait (journals usually limit the time for reviewers to review manuscripts, usually about one month). Of course, the previous steps may be slow, depending on the editing process. If the invited reviewers don't want to review, they will refuse and the editor will invite other reviewers again.
5. The required review has been completed and is waiting for editing. The process is short for a few days, but long for uncertainty. It's been nearly a month since an article in the Science Museum appeared in the state that the necessary examination has been completed, and there is still no news.
6. The decision being made is about to have a result, and the editor begins to consider whether to directly modify or reject it. Of course, it is possible to accept it directly, but it is very unlikely, hehe.
7. minor revision/major revision, minor repair/overhaul, this time can be celebrated a little, because it is possible to modify it. I don't need to say more about how to change it. Modesty is essential (because it will be sent to the reviewers after revision, so be sure to answer every question of each reviewer carefully, be modest, let the reviewers feel that every question he asks is standard, and then answer his questions one by one. Modify what can be modified, and give reasons, all listed. Which paragraph of the article is which paragraph? Note: Sometimes, the reviewer will say in the revision opinion that I hope you will read some documents carefully. At this time, you should pay attention. Some articles may be published by the reviewers themselves, so you'd better quote them in your revised draft. There are countless examples of rejection after revision.
8. The revised edition submitted to the journal was revised and resubmitted for editing.
9. Acceptance If there is no retrial, it is only a minor revision. This status will be displayed immediately after editing, but if there is a retrial, there will be some of the above statuses. One step will be faster, but there are also slow ones. Read magazines.
10. Rejected. I believe everyone will be very depressed when they see rejection. But don't be too discouraged. After reading the comments patiently, the chief judge will give useful suggestions. I believe you will gain something after reading it.
In the process of submission and review, possible mistakes and problems needing attention are:
The published research papers will bring new methods for scientific research and innovation and open up new horizons for the development of science, technology and society. This paper shares the experience of peer review and submission of famous scholars, which makes submission and review easier; The relevant experience is summarized as follows:
First of all, research cannot be delayed. If you have an idea, you should push it hard. No matter how difficult the task is, there is always hope to finish it. You will never stop until the paper is published (it is better to have follow-up work);
Second, the submission of papers must be timely. How many tutors cling to students' papers, delaying opportunities and even affecting graduation?
Third, even if we imitate other people's research work, as long as we do it more deeply, systematically and concretely, we can always get more general conclusions and have certain publishing value, but if we do it thinly, we will inevitably be criticized and rejected by reviewers;
Fourth, we should be more careful in reviewing manuscripts. We should not only read the full text carefully and put forward accurate and pertinent opinions, but also carefully refer to the requirements of magazine review. How many people think that peer review is enough and the grading is just random?
5. Learn to guess who the commentator is from the comments. If the manuscript is rejected, after switching to other journals, add the one who may have given favorable comments before to the reviewer, and advise the editor to avoid the one who gave harsh and difficult comments, which may speed up the process of reviewing and accepting articles.
At present, the first-class SCI magazines in the world basically adopt the way of online submission. Common submission systems include: ScholarOne manuscript, editing manager, Elsevier editing system, EJPress, open periodical system (OJS) and so on. Some publishers tend to develop their own submission systems, such as Peer X-Press of American Physical Federation Press (AIP), author service and referee service of British Physical Society Press (IOPP) and so on. Although these online submission systems have different interface styles, their overall functions are very similar, which greatly facilitates the contact and communication between editors, authors and reviewers, and plays a very important role in improving publishing efficiency and reducing publishing costs. The main points for attention in online submission are as follows: (1) Pay attention to the latest requirements of journals to be submitted, so as to follow the habits and formats of journals as soon as possible when preparing manuscripts. (2) Submission information, such as submission letter, abstract, document type, auxiliary information, drawings, suggested reviewers, etc., should be filled in or added in strict accordance with the relevant requirements of the journal. , to meet the requirements of the magazine. (3) The e-mail address must be accurate. Some journals require the main author and correspondent to have independent user names and passwords, and they should contact the correspondent mainly after submission, which is also something to pay attention to when submitting. (4) After registering in the submission system, the author will have his own webpage, which is usually divided into several areas, such as submitting, inquiring the status of submitted articles, continuing to contribute articles, transmitting revised articles, and publishing rented articles. Therefore, for a specific journal (group), try to keep your unique user name and password to avoid confusion. (5) In addition to email and FTP submission, the submission task can be completed many times through the webpage in the form of temporary storage. Before the final submission, the submission system requires the author to confirm that all projects have been completed and allow the author to make modifications. Under normal circumstances, the author is not allowed to modify the submission after it is completed, unless the editor and publisher ask the author to make some changes. (6) After successful submission, the author will generally receive a confirmation letter from the editor or the system. The author can track the manuscript status according to the manuscript number provided in the confirmation letter (for example, to speed up the manuscript processing), contact after submission, and contact the editor through the designated channel or email in the submission system.
