Review speed: 12.0 | Submission hit rate: 25.0 
Emphasized research direction: Digestive diseases 
Sharing experience: It has been two months since submission, and the academic editor has not been assigned yet. The efficiency is so low that it is hard to accept. If it is an article with strong practicality, it will be outdated. I will never submit to this journal again in the future!

Review speed: 6.0 | Submission acceptance rate: 50.0
Research focus: Digestive direction
Experience sharing: The editor seems very responsible and provides good suggestions. It took 1 month to be assigned an editor after the initial submission, but once it was in the editor's hands, it was processed very quickly. There were 2 major revisions and 1 minor revision over the course of 6 months before acceptance. If time is not an issue, it's worth considering submitting to this journal, but if time is tight, it may be better to pass

Research focus: Gastrointestinal diseases.
Experience sharing: My manuscript has been added to the blacklist for submission. It has been over three months since submission, and it is still in its original state. I sent a reminder once, but it seems that no AE has been assigned yet. I will never submit to them again

Experience sharing: The website construction is very poor, often unable to log in, the review speed is also slow, and the opinions lack suggestions. The IF has been over 1 for many years, and the proportion of Chinese people is increasing year by year. I don't know if it will be listed in the Chinese Academy of Sciences warning list like Biomed res int!
