International Journal of Medical, Allied and Clinical Health Research
The journals aim to provide an efficient and transparent editorial process.
TargetWithin 3 days
The editorial team performs an initial assessment of the manuscript's scope, completeness, basic quality, and relevant policy requirements.
The first decision refers to the initial editorial screening outcome; it does not mean that the manuscript will be accepted within three days.
TargetUp to 30 days
Suitable manuscripts are evaluated by independent reviewers. Additional review rounds may be required depending on the manuscript and reviewer recommendations.
TargetWithin 7 days after completion of review and receipt of any required revisions
The editor evaluates the review reports, revised manuscript, and any outstanding requirements before making the final decision.
TargetWithin 5 days after final acceptance, completion of required formalities, and approval of proofs
The accepted manuscript proceeds through production checks, typesetting, author proof approval, and online publication.
The overall target is to complete the process in under two months for manuscripts that progress promptly through review, revision, and production.
These timelines are targets, not guarantees. The actual duration may be affected by reviewer availability, the time taken by authors to revise their work, additional review rounds, ethics checks, and proof corrections.
The first decision refers to the initial editorial screening outcome; it does not mean that the manuscript will be accepted within three days.
