Review Procedure
The review procedure for Diabetes Research – Open Journal ensures the publication of high-quality, impactful research by adhering to a rigorous and transparent process. Initially, submitted manuscripts undergo a preliminary assessment by the editorial team to evaluate their alignment with the journal’s scope, relevance, and adherence to submission guidelines. Manuscripts that pass this stage are assigned to subject-matter experts from the journal's editorial board or external reviewers with expertise in diabetes research.
The peer review process is conducted under a single-blind or double-blind format, depending on the journal's policy, to ensure impartiality and fairness. Reviewers evaluate the manuscript's scientific merit, originality, methodological rigor, and clarity of presentation. They also provide constructive feedback for improvement. Authors are required to address all reviewer comments and resubmit revised manuscripts, which may undergo additional rounds of review if necessary.
Once reviewers recommend acceptance, the editorial team conducts a final review to ensure compliance with ethical standards, data accuracy, and formatting requirements. Accepted manuscripts are then prepared for publication and made available online, promoting the dissemination of valuable knowledge to the diabetes research community. Throughout the process, the journal maintains open communication with authors to facilitate a smooth and efficient review experience.
