Hello, I have encountered a similar situation. May I ask how you rebutted it?

Experience Sharing: After revising twice in over three months, my paper was rejected after minor revisions and I had to resubmit. It was very frustrating. I submitted a rebuttal, and after three more rounds of revisions over the next week, my paper was finally accepted. It was a very tumultuous and painful experience

May I ask how long the second review took for you, as I am in a similar situation? I have also submitted surgery videos and a video abstract. The manuscript is being reviewed by four reviewers, a formatting editor, a chief editor, and a statistics editor

Experience sharing: I submitted a multi-center retrospective study, and two out of the three reviewers showed strong interest and gave high praise. They suggested some revisions before acceptance. The third reviewer also raised some questions but did not express rejection. However, the editor rejected the manuscript directly

Updated: On April 26, 2022, after two months of major revisions, the second submission was still rejected. The journal has strict requirements, and the rejection was due to experimental design

It seems that every time the comments from the reviewers are returned, the status of the journal will be changed back to "with editor"

The evolving technology section that was submitted on January 28th is nearing a total of 200 allocated numbers, and the external review process was completed on February 8th. It feels a bit cold, but the progress was very quick

The innovativeness of an article may be assessed by searching for key words

Do I need to submit a video during the first round of review? Or is it only required when the paper is confirmed for revision or acceptance?

Is the rejection rate for major revisions to JTCVS pretty high?

Experience sharing: Clinical cases in cardiovascular surgery, submitted for review on the same day, first review came back after 15 days, rejected 2 days later. Experts 1 and 3 raised a total of 23 questions, half of which were constructive, but both felt that the comparative methods were problematic. Expert 2 only wrote 3 lines with a total of 60 words, which were quite sarcastic and critical. In recent years, JTCVS has become much stricter than before, feeling overall unfriendly to Chinese authors

Experience sharing: The webpage crashed while operating on the PC. I don't know if my personal experience was uploaded. The review was very fast, less than a week. It's free, but rejection is required after major revisions. The rejection reasons are very formal and do not clearly indicate specific areas of concern. The opinions of Reviewer 2 are very fair. They replied in detail for two consecutive times, from punctuation spelling to suggestions and opinions. It's been over five minutes now. Compared to a 3.6 internal journal rejection in the past, at least they can provide a lot of feedback

May I ask if JTCVS can have joint correspondence?
