Clinical Medicine Insights: Circulatory, Respiratory and Pulmonary Medicine

The Editor in Chief welcomes new manuscripts for peer review.  Prior to submission authors should review the information contained on the journal’s About webpage, which contains important information on the journal’s aims and scope and accepted manuscript types.  Authors should also verify that manuscripts meet the basic manuscript presentation requirements.  Authors may find the sample manuscript and downloadable manuscript template helpful. 

Manuscripts submitted to the journal are subject to blind peer review by a minimum of two suitably qualified reviewers.  Peer reviewers are drawn from the journal’s editorial board, its volunteer peer reviewer pool, and occasionally from Pubmed.  All editorial decisions are the responsibility of Editor in Chief or an Associate Editor, where appointed by the Editor in Chief. 

Throughout the editorial and production processes the publisher proactively monitors each stage to prevent delays to authors.  Authors are regularly informed of changes in their paper’s status.  Editorial contributors, journal staff, and external contractors who contribute to editorial and production processes are qualified, experienced professionals chosen for their ability to efficiently contribute towards high-quality published papers.  Article processing fees are clearly communicated to authors prior to and during manuscript submission and there are no additional fees based on use of color, figure or word-count.

• Articles gain substantial visibility through an expanding selection of databases and indexes.  Authors retain copyright in articles, which may be freely shared, reproduced, and archived.

• The journal is compliant with major open access policies, and contributes to leading archiving systems.
