If you paper is written in the format of what a research paper should be like, not missing anything, and the statistical analysis is done adequately, then it is not hard to get accepted at this journal. Initially, I was confused about the “Western acupuncture” required in the manuscript guidelines. However, if you look closely, you will find that it is not to exclude acupuncture in Chinese medicine, but requires the interpretation of Chinese acupuncture with the scientific thinking of modern medicine. There are many papers from Chinese authors in each issue. The first review takes on average 36 days, and the acceptance rate is 38%. I feel that the acceptance rate of papers from Chinese authors is quite high. If the article is inappropriate, the editorial department will make a decision in 1-3 days, and 23% of the articles are rejected at this point.

Review speed: 1.0 | Submission hit rate: 75.0 Emphasized research directions: osteoporosis; osteoarthritis; acupuncture experience sharing: I submitted multiple articles a long time ago and felt that the editors were very friendly to Chinese authors. The review process usually takes about a month, and there were no issues with the first article. It was published after some revisions. The journal mainly publishes articles that verify the effects and mechanisms of acupuncture through modern experiments. Writing in this logical manner is not a problem

Updated and uploaded on September 7, 2022, still stuck at awaiting AE decision. Urged multiple times but no progress, too slow... Suggesting anxious graduates to be cautious when submitting

Pushing for a submission won't speed up the review process; in fact, it may even result in your paper being rejected faster
