The emphasis was on clinical, and the reviewers who asked a lot of constructive questions were being very serious. The editorial office responded quickly, and some review stages can be merged and simplified.

The time required for major revisions of SCI papers, due to the need for additional experiments, is generally not less than two weeks and no longer than the prescribed time of 90 days. Minor revisions take less time, typically 10-20 days. The deadline can be adjusted based on individual circumstances

Review Speed: 2.0
Experience sharing: The first review took two months, the second review took one month, and then it took nearly one month to be accepted after revisions. May I ask how long it takes to go online after acceptance? The editor suggested open access, but I wonder if the online time can be advanced
