I love traveling to new places, exploring different cultures, and trying new foods. It's amazing how much you can learn and grow from stepping outside of your comfort zone

Has anyone's article been accepted yet? Just wondering how long it usually takes from acceptance to publication??

The layout fee for foreign journals is high

Review speed: 6.0 | Submission acceptance rate: 25.0
Experience sharing: Submitted on July 22, 2016, the external review was not completed until October. After revising according to the comments, I resubmitted in January 2018. After waiting for 3 months, it was rejected. One reviewer thought it was acceptable, but the other said, "I am not convinced about the scientific power of their work." No specific reason for rejection was given. After about 9 months of back and forth, it ended in tragedy. A colleague also published a paper in this journal, and also went through a similar process for almost 10 months. The characteristic of this journal is: slow... slow for the first review, and slow for the second review as well

Review speed: 3.0 | Submission acceptance rate: 50.0
Experience sharing: There are relatively few people submitting to this journal in the field, so I'll share my experience. I had previously submitted a paper to JGS, but tragically it was rejected after external review. I then resubmitted to this journal and found that the overall difficulty was not too high, and the editors were friendly. The first review took 4 months, and the second review took 1 month. The journal is relatively specialized, asks questions of great depth, and effectively contributes to the progress of the paper. Page charges start after 3 pages, at 300 Swiss Francs per page. In IASGO's magazine, I believe the importance of the reviewers is crucial in determining whether an article will be accepted, so luck is also a factor

Have any of your brothers undergone digestive surgery recently?

Experience sharing: The review process took nearly four months, with acceptance after revising for two weeks, followed by another two months of online waiting. The difficulty was not high, but the speed was slow!

Review speed: 1.0 experience sharing: Submitted on September 27, 2013, received reviewer comments on October 7, revised on November 30, accepted on December 7, online on January 30, 2014. The editorial team works efficiently and has a good attitude. When I encountered problems with the submission system and emailed the editor, they replied promptly. I got confused by the default citation format of the system when submitting the manuscript, and was warned that the submission would not be successful if it didn't match the format, so I strongly advise against using EndNote. The first three pages of the journal are free, and each additional page costs 325 Swiss francs. The publication fee is also acceptable. It's a good journal!

The review period and time to publication speeds are slow, but the editor is professional. There is also no review fees and no page fees for 6 pages or less. I think this journal is worthy of submission.

Magazine Name: Digestive Surgery
Professional Field: Digestive Surgery (including Hepatobiliary Surgery and General Surgery)
Magazine Country: Switzerland
Submission Date: 2009-01-16
Submission Method (submission system or by mail, if there is a submission system please provide submission link): Submission system available
Revision Date: 2009-04-1 (looking at this date, I thought someone was playing a joke!)
Modification Method (major revision, minor revision, rejection): Not specified major or minor revision, the editor was very polite and said that the article could be published with slight modifications, but the revised manuscript was clearly sent back to the reviewers for further evaluation (revision time was longer). 
Acceptance Date: 2009-08-26
Page Charges: Yes, free for within three pages, CHF 310 per additional page. Color images CHF 760 per page. 
Sharing of experience or lessons: This magazine is more clinical and has certain language requirements. It is not too difficult to publish (of course, articles cannot have no highlights), and efficiency is average. The magazine uses the Karger submission system, with mixed reviews from people. Those who have been accepted say it's good, while those who have been rejected say it's bad. I think the submission system is a bit outdated in terms of functionality, but the interface is simple and acceptable

We only accept clinical articles and prefer to have photos, including surgical photos and imaging examination materials. Not many articles are published each year, but due to good editorial control, once accepted, the electronic version of the article can be seen within 3-4 months. The difficulty is not very high, and the editorial attitude is good
