The article was about a cross case of orthopedics and rheumatology. It took two months from submission to revision. Review comments given were very meticulous. Then it was directly accepted after major revision. It has a big chance to be accepted if it is innovative.

A total of 3 papers were submitted, and 2 were accepted. The first paper was submitted in April 24th, 2014, but was returned after the second review, and it took 2 months to be returned. The second paper was submitted in April 24th, 2014, and was accepted after three revisions, taking 6 months to be accepted. The third paper was submitted in May 24th, 2014, and underwent external review for 9 months, with a new expert sought for the third review. It was finally accepted today, taking 12 months to be accepted. Overall, the reviewing experts were very professional, with an average of 3 experts consulted for each accepted paper, and an average of at least 10 review comments. However, the speed of external review varied, with the official website stating an average time of 8 months from submission to acceptance, but actual submission times were longer. Those in a hurry to graduate or apply for promotion should not submit their papers hastily.

After returning from the second repair, there has been no movement after the technical check, and there has been no response after sending an email to the editorial department.

Have you received yours? It has been four to five months for me as well. I see that the reviewers have already given their feedback, but there has been no movement at the editorial office. Sending reminders doesn't seem to help.

May I ask how your manuscript is progressing now? Mine also went back for revisions, and has not made any progress since passing the technical check. I am getting anxious.

Submitted for 8 months, accepted after one major revision, overall the speed is okay. The main reason for the delay was the time spent on PR. The comments from the three reviewers were very professional, and they pointed out even the smallest formatting errors. There were a total of around 40 issues to address in the first major revision, some of which were crucial and required a lot of time to fix. I also learned a lot from the reviewers' feedback. Good luck to the next one!!!

Family members, I submitted the manuscript on 24.6.9, received feedback on 9.10 for revisions, and until now on 25.1.2, the revised manuscript has not been processed after passing the technical review. What should I do? The reminders are not answered, and it seems like they haven't even been read. I can see from email tracking that they are marked as unread. Please help, this is the second round of revisions, and even a new reviewer was invited for the second round. How can I get in touch with them?

What should I do if I can't reach the editor or the editorial department? It's been four months since I submitted my revisions and they still haven't been processed.

Review speed: 24.0 | Submission acceptance rate: 5.0
Experience sharing: I do not recommend submitting to this journal. The review process is very slow and the editors do not respond to emails. I had to send withdrawal requests four or five times before successfully withdrawing my submission after more than ten days.

...I really can't believe it, a small journal that takes over three months for review, and they even invite reviewers twice. It's just too much.

How are things going with your submission? I also submitted to another journal of BMC, and it's been very slow. I submitted in October last year and it's still under review
