Peer review is a critical process used to evaluate the quality of a manuscript before it is published online. It plays an essential role in academic publishing by ensuring that manuscripts are thoroughly checked, revised, and edited according to established standards and the guidelines set by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
Medvix Publications follows the double-blind peer review process. In this method, the identities of both the authors and reviewers are kept confidential. Manuscripts are first assessed by the editors and editorial team through an initial editorial review, which evaluates the quality, relevance, and scientific merit of the submission. Only manuscripts that meet these standards proceed to the peer review stage.
Medvix Publications is committed to publishing only high-quality articles in its respective journals. Therefore, validating the manuscript before it is published online and presented to readers is essential. This rigorous peer review process is fundamental to improving the quality of published research and ensuring only the most credible and valuable work is shared with the academic community.
The complete process is as follows-
Conflicts of Interest
The editors and reviewers should promptly inform about any potential conflict of interest with the manuscript or the Author, such as any competitive or collaborative relationships or connections with authors, companies, or institutions. They should also recuse themselves from further interaction or involvement in the review process.
Confidentiality
Manuscripts should be handled with maximum confidentiality.
