Thanks again to the editor and reviewers!

The first SCI paper in my life! Nov 22, 2019, submitted; Nov 26, 2019, under review; Jan 10, 2020, major revision requested; Mar 01, 2020, revision completed; Apr 06, 2020, accepted for publication. It took more than one month for the first review and one month for the second review. The result of the first review was a major revision. There was a total of two reviewers, each of whom put forward 4 comments. The overall comments given by the reviewers are still relatively positive and appreciative, but they also raised more difficult issues (that I wanted to avoid discussing when doing research content). The editing speed of Dr. Murthy was still very fast. Even during the period when the epidemic was raging around the world, it was sent for review within a few days, and in the final acceptance email he also let us pay attention to our bodies, which was too cute. In short, it can be regarded as an explanation for my academic career ~ hard work will never be disappointed.

The review period for this journal is about two months from submission to acceptance. Each paper is sent to four reviewers, and then goes through a technical review if accepted. The current editor-in-chief is professional.

Hello, I have completed my 4 reviews, but it has been pending for 3 days. Is this situation normal, family?

On the first day of the external audit, 9 review invitations were sent out, and then 6 review invitations were quickly accepted, very anxious!!!

I have also been returned for revisions for 8 days as a first review, and I am still in the "with editor" status. The manuscript is being handled by the chief editor.

After peer review, for manuscripts requiring major revisions, the time from submission to "with editor" status has not been less than 20 days. It has been half a month since minor revisions were submitted and it is still "with editor". The editorial decision-making process seems a bit lengthy.

Currently, 18 people have been submitted, but only one has accepted the review. We can only wait patiently and hope for good news.

Currently, 18 people have been submitted, but only one has accepted the review. I don't know what will happen, so let's wait slowly. There is no other way now.

How is it going? I have a piece that has been in editing for 11 days now.

ATE generally will not reject a submission just because there aren't enough reviewers available in the short term. I once submitted a paper in a niche field and had to invite nearly 30 reviewers in batches before finally getting 3 to accept the review. In such cases, it may take longer to receive a decision (it took me 3 and a half months for the initial review). So don't worry too much, and good luck!

Thirteen reviewers have been contacted, but no one has reviewed the manuscript yet. It seems that we may have sent it to the wrong reviewers or there was an issue with the classification. There is a high probability that the manuscript will be rejected. It is frustrating to not receive any reviews.

Communication with the system and editor revealed that after the first round of revisions, Reviewer #1 did not find responses to their comments, and the submission was accepted upon resubmission. Thanks to Pradeep Bansal for being very efficient!
