Aug 04, 2023 Decision in Process. It has been 5 days and there is still no news. It has been half a year and I haven't even seen the initial comments. I don't know the reason.

Wrote a reminder letter on Aug 04, 2023, and it was updated to "Decision in Process". Another 5 days have passed. I really don't know what's going on with this magazine. Is it because of our article?

Under Editor Assessment until May 30th
Under review on May 30th
All four reviewers' comments came back on June 21st. Required Reviews Completed (actually, this status is achieved when the first reviewer submits their comments) It has been several months since then.
It has been almost 6 months and I haven't seen the comments from the first reviewer. In fact, the review process takes less than a month, and most of the time is spent with the editor.
I have sent 7 reminder emails, with the last one addressed to the Editor-in-Chief, Thomas Efferth.

Hello, I would like to ask if you are working on a drug monomer or a compound? I have made a plant monomer, and the suggestions in the editing ask me to provide HPLC identification. Now, even commercial drug monomers require HPLC identification?

This is normal, mine has been in this state for a month too, but it is already in the repair stage. It feels quite fast.

shishi 2023-03-23

I would like to ask everyone, is it normal for it to take over a month from submission to still be under editor assessment?
Is it a rejection or acceptance?
Why is this journal so slow?

The editor and one reviewer were very friendly, but the other reviewer 2 asked questions based on the figures. They asked a total of thirty to forty questions. After I made revisions to the experiment, they directly rejected my submission. The reason for rejection was arbitrary. I made revisions to the figures in my revised version, but they claimed that I did not make any changes. It took four months in total, and in the end, my submission was rejected due to these issues. I did not even have the opportunity to appeal. I do not recommend it for those who are in a hurry to graduate!

Possibly, the direction is more in line with the reviewer's preferences, and the entire process is very fast.

After submission, Elsevier will send you a link to track the real-time review status.

Hello, how do you know if the reviewer has accepted the review?

Brandysea 2022-11-22

After submitting the manuscript, it was returned for revision three times. After a successful submission, I waited for a week and the editor changed from the chief editor to the associate editor. Then it was sent for review. After a month, I received the revision comments. There were a total of three reviewers, with two of them raising questions about the writing aspect and one reviewer asking why only iron death was studied and not apoptosis, giving me 20 days to make revisions. After carefully revising the article according to the feedback, I submitted the revised manuscript approximately three weeks later. I thought that such minor revisions would be accepted directly, but to my surprise, I had to wait for another week for it to be sent for review again. This time, only one reviewer agreed to review it. After waiting for two weeks, I received the review comments. The other two reviewers still did not agree to review it. So, I sent an email to inquire about the situation and it took another week for it to be back in the editor's hands. They invited a new reviewer. After receiving the feedback from this new reviewer (who pointed out the need for some additional experiments), I waited for approximately one week and received a rejection letter stating that the journal requires positive controls and concentration gradients for in vitro and in vivo experiments. I checked previous articles published by the journal and found that some of them did not include positive controls and concentration gradients. It is frustrating that after three rounds of external review, the manuscript was rejected for this reason.

Posted on 2022.4.25, received first-round comments on 2022.5.21, but due to work reasons, there was a delay. Revised the first round on 2022.6.29, second-round revision on 2022.7.4, and accepted on 2022.7.10. The process was quite fast (except for one reviewer who asked repeated questions...). There were six reviewers (possibly eight if invited?), and this journal has a feature where all manuscripts need to be reviewed by the editor-in-chief before being passed on to other relevant editors. There are many reviewers involved. Another thing about this journal is that even if one reviewer gives a rejection, if the overall opinion is for revisions, you still have the opportunity to respond to the reviewer who rejected your paper and convince them to change their decision to acceptance.

The review process is very long, and there are many reviewers invited (I invited 11, among them 6 raised over 50 questions in total). It required three revisions, and two reviewers were persistent and difficult. I do not recommend it for those in a hurry to graduate.

I have made 5 modifications before and after, and finally accepted. It was not easy.

The speed is fast, and the editing is very friendly.

Too slow, and I don't even know who shared the experience written above for three months, which is even longer than the time I spent conducting experiments. We have already graduated, but there is still no response!!!!

May I ask what format you are using to upload images separately? How is the clarity? My images are uploaded in the required TIFF format and automatically converted to PDF by the system, but they become blurry.

Shiruyu 2021-05-09

Do all authors need to confirm the manuscript before processing begins?

甘草 2021-04-08

May I ask if this magazine requires the inclusion of three repeated experimental results for the experimental results, or just a single experimental result graph directly?

甘草 2021-04-08

May I ask if the experiment results of this magazine need to be accompanied by three repeated experiment results?
