Author Instructions

by a minimum of two independent expert reviewers. The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for the final decision regarding
acceptance or rejection of the manuscript.

All information contained in your manuscript and acquired during the review process will be held in the strictest
confidence.

8.3. Decisions
Your research will be judged on scientific soundness only, not on its perceived impact as judged by Editors or referees.
There are three possible decisions: Accept (your study satisfies all publication criteria), Invitation to Revise (more work
is required to satisfy all criteria), and Reject (your study fails to satisfy key criteria and it is highly unlikely that further
work can address its shortcomings). All of the following publication criteria must be fulfilled to enable your manuscript
to be accepted for publication:
Originality
The study reports original research and conclusions.
Data availability
All data to support the conclusions either have been provided or are otherwise publicly available.
Statistics
All data have been analyzed through appropriate statistical tests and these are clearly defined.
Methods
The methods are described in sufficient detail to be replicated.
Citations
Previous work has been appropriately acknowledged.
Interpretation
The conclusions are a reasonable extension of the results.
Ethics
The study design, data presentation, and writing style comply with our Editorial Policies.

8.4. Revisions
Authors are required to submit the revised manuscript within one week if minor revision is recommended while two
weeks if major revision recommended or one month if additional experiments are needed. If authors need more than one
month to revise their manuscript, we usually require the authors to resubmit their paper. We request that a document of
point-to-point response to all comments of reviewers and the Editor-in-Chief or the Associate Editor should be supplied
along with the revised manuscript to allow quick assessment of your revised manuscript. This document should outline
in detail how each of the comments was addressed in the revised manuscript or should provide a rebuttal to the criticism.
Manuscripts may or may not be sent to reviewers after revision, dependent on whether the reviewer requested to see the
revised version. Apart from in exceptional circumstances, IR only supports a round of major revision per manuscript.
