What is the difference between Conflict of Interest and Declaration of Interest Statement?

Moonquakes 2023-07-12

From b&b, snb, talanta, bioorg chem, aca, dye pigm, I was exhausted from all the rejections. Finally, microchem j accepted my paper, and I was deeply moved. Moreover, microchem j was incredibly efficient, catching me off guard. I hope the impact factor reaches 5 next year!

Why hasn't this magazine been sent for approval by DIP for over a week? Has anyone else encountered this situation? It's so annoying, if they are going to reject it, they should do it quickly..

blinkcxl 2023-07-12

With editor2 Zhou, then directly dip, let's forget about dipping, if you want to reject, do it quickly, but the result is that it has been over a week and still no response...

Within one month, the status changed from "under review" to "decision in process," and it doesn't feel good.

People who are in a hurry are really not recommended to invest, the speed is too slow.

迪巴拉 2023-06-03

Given two months of time, it's enough!

May I ask how much time did the original poster give for the first major revision?

2022-12-22 revisions being processed Midway through the process, there were difficulties with the experiments due to YQ reasons, and I had a fever for three days. After fixing it, I rushed to submit it before Christmas.

Experience of Submission:
2022.4.27 Submitted to MJ.
2022.5.23 First major revision given, with two months' time and two reviewers. The first reviewer raised 40 questions, including both major and minor issues, while the second reviewer raised 8 questions.
2022.7.20 Revised the manuscript, but due to other matters, I only managed to submit it by the deadline, wasting a lot of time.
2022.8.17 Second major revision given, the first reviewer agreed to accept it, but the second reviewer found 4 tricky questions.
2022.9.19 Waiting for the revisions to be returned.
2022.10.10 The editor made a funny mistake and sent the revised draft back to the first reviewer, who agreed to accept it again. However, the first reviewer unexpectedly raised 1 small issue, requiring a minor revision, which was frustrating!
2022.10.20 Third revision of the manuscript sent back, waiting again.
2022.10.24 Directly accepted! It took nearly half a year!
In summary, the review speed of MJ journal is still quite fast, and its impact factor is steadily increasing. However, the reviewers sometimes get stuck on one issue. The editor is diligent and responsible. This is the first time I have encountered a manuscript that required three revisions in my life. Other articles I have submitted were accepted after only one revision! I hope the journal continues to improve!

耿耿的论文送审了吗 2022-08-16

The submission was made in March and stayed in the hands of the editor for two months. After several reminders, it was finally sent for review. Then, there was no news for two months regarding the review. After continuing to remind them, the editor replied promptly, indicating that they would urge the review process. After the reminder, the review process was quick, and they provided one month for major revisions. After the revisions, it was accepted within ten days.

I forgot which submission was chosen, and the rejection letter at the end was signed by Huimin Zhao.

文于 2022-08-12

I really understand your feelings, I have also encountered this situation before. May I ask which editor you contacted when submitting to this journal?

希格玻色子 2022-08-10

The submission experience was simply the worst. I submitted in May and received the results in August. There was only one extremely unprofessional or non-expert reviewer (normally there should be three, or even five as I have encountered before). The article is in the field of electrochemistry, and the reviewer directly asked how the material was fixed without the use of adhesives. This led to the rejection of the entire experiment. It's frustrating to waste three months encountering such a situation, especially considering that there was no response even after following up.

It has been four days since Xiaoxiu submitted it, and the editor changed the deadline once. Does anyone know why?
