Reviewers Considerations
Reviewers will be asked to give detailed, constructive comments that will contribute to the editors’ decision on publication and the author(s) improvement of their manuscript. A key issue is whether the work has serious flaws that should preclude its publication, or whether there are additional experiments or data required to support the conclusions drawn. Where possible, reviewers should provide references to corroborate and substantiate their comments.
Reviewers indicate whether they consider any required revisions to be 'major compulsory revisions', 'minor essential revisions' or 'discretionary revisions'. Generally, revisions are likely to be 'Major compulsory revisions' if additional data are required to support the claims or the interpretations are not supported by the data, if further analysis is required that may change the results and conclusions, or if the methods used are insufficient, inadequate or statistical errors have been made.
