Contribution log: 2019.10.1 Contribution, 2019.10.13 There had been no news for 3 months after returning the format modified revision. The reminder letter was sent every month. The replies were all under review. Then I forgot this article. I received the recommendation of major revisions while I was busy with other things. Major revisions were required on April 24, 2020. The major revisions were completed, including the editing of Spandidos' journals (polishing fee 1500). Minor revisions were required on June 17th, 2020, it was returned that night. It was accepted on June 18th, 2020. I received the proof email on June 25th, 2020. The proof content was quite troublesome. I need add references, adjust the format by myself, correct the table, etc. On July 1, 2020, the proof was completed. It went through four major and minor revisions during the proof stage. I wish you all success.

The editor was very careful, and all the places he did not understand will let you explain, and let you provide the data, and let you revise. What’s more, the reviewers raised comments. The article was accepted after revision. After acceptance, the editor still raised a lot of comments, and edited the text. At that time, as long as you answered his questions on time, the manuscript would not be rejected. In this time, there were three editors who reviewed and raised comments in three stages. There were dozens of comments in total, which were very detailed.

The editor was very responsible, and the comments the reviewer gave were very good. The manuscript was accepted after the second revision. There were only three statuses on the website: submit, under review and accept, and I was not clear about each specific step. They can only be understood by mail. It has been accepted now, but I have not yet received the proof.

The process was a long period of review and revisions, and then acceptance. It took over 6 months for acceptance. The layout fee is not cheap. The material has to be read clearly and if it is not, then it will be rejected. It is said that this journal has a high self-introduction rate.

After one month of external review, the reviewers were very strict on the research data and content. The first round of review by three reviewers raised some simple questions, and there were also three repeated uploads. However, in the second round of review, more challenging content issues were raised, and it was required to have three repetitions for immunofluorescence, PCR, and WB. The reviewers meticulously scrutinized the PCR primers and other details. It can be said that the review was very harsh. In the end, my paper was rejected because I did not pay enough attention and uploaded repeated data.

Are there any experienced professionals here? It's already the 9th and I still haven't received any emails about proofreading or payment. I'm anxious to see the publication.

4.1 After receiving the email, I would like to ask the experts, how long does it take to revise the manuscript after acceptance? How long does it take to see it published? It is a requirement for graduation to have the manuscript published.

Seeking advice from all the experts, submitting the manuscript from 12 to 15, receiving feedback for revisions in early February, polishing and revising by the end of February, starting the day after revisions, the editor sent me three emails asking for more detailed changes and ethical supplements. Has the revised manuscript not been submitted for review yet? Or is there no need to submit for review after revisions? I am feeling anxious after reading everyone's comments, as I am waiting to graduate.

It's really a trashy magazine, total rubbish. I answered all the questions from the reviewers one by one in the second round, then I organized the raw data three times as they requested. I also addressed various requests for animal ethics and issues one by one. However, after the fifth round of revisions, they claimed that I had repeated images??? Me??? I conducted the experiments honestly, where is the repetition? I emailed them to argue and asked them to point out where I repeated, but they just ignored me, wasting half a year of my time!! Trashy magazine. Blacklisted!

This is really a garbage magazine, a huge garbage. I answered the reviewer's questions one by one, there were no issues in the second round, and then the original data was organized three times as they requested. All subsequent requests for animal ethics and issues were also answered one by one. However, after the fifth round of revisions, they said I had repeated images??? Me??? I conducted the experiment honestly, where did I repeat? I emailed them to argue and asked them to point out where I repeated, but they ignored me directly, wasting six months of my time!! Garbage magazine. Blacklisted!

This Greek magazine company is like this, they casually reject submissions with any excuses, disgusting to the extreme, completely disrespectful of how much time others have wasted.

The most garbage magazine, no one should ever choose Molecular Medicine Reports. We submitted on 10th August 2024, after 25 days it showed as Under review, then reminded twice, each time the response was "under external review", until it came back for revision in January 2025, with two reviewers, both minor revisions, very positive comments. However, the editor requested polishing at the company, we chose to do additional experiments for polishing (1500 yuan), a month later we resubmitted, reviewers had no comments, editor asked a lot of questions about animal experiments, and requested original documents for animal ethics approval (native language) and unit approval, we provided all and all were qualified. Two days later it was directly rejected, saying our animal experiments may not comply with ethical standards, we carefully checked all animal experiment data and method descriptions, all following NIH standards. We argued but never received any response. Permanently blacklisted.

Where can I find information on journal invitations for reviewers? I can only see "under review" on the official website and nothing else, I'm getting anxious.

Can we wait until the PDF editing is complete to compare the costs of OA and non-OA and then decide which one is cheaper?

Do I have to pay a publication fee? How much is the publication fee? The journal I am looking at is not an open access journal.

Does this magazine have all its articles edited for language?

(0) Thank | 宏逸公子

Oh, I received negative feedback from the reviewers, and the journal also asked me to revise and do language editing. Does this mean that my hopes are actually slim?

During the proofreading stage, the editor provided a document for adding references, but the version they provided is password-protected and cannot be accessed. How can this issue be resolved?
