"The initial article submission process is very easy since the journal provides specific guidelines and a sample manuscript. Reviewer comments were helpful. The potential acceptance immediately after the initial review helped reassure the authors. Revision submission was somewhat difficult since the reference citation analysis did not respond initially, and I had to attempt many times, but failed. I had to request support from an editor, and the editor submitted the manuscript. However, the submitted manuscript had many formatting errors, and I had to revise it extensively and hire a professional language editor, as requested. PDF quality was good."

"The article “Interleukin‑6 and Tumor Necrosis Factor‑α in Osteoimmunology: Aging, and Anticytokine Therapies” achieved early and fast publication in the World Journal of Translational Medicine, highlighting its immediate relevance to both clinical and translational science. By dissecting the dual roles of IL‑6 and TNF‑α in bone–immune crosstalk, inflammaging, and therapeutic modulation, the study provides timely insights into cytokine‑driven skeletal degeneration and the promise of anticytokine interventions. The journal’s expedited editorial process underscores its commitment to disseminating impactful discoveries without delay, ensuring rapid access for clinicians, researchers, and educators. This accelerated publication fosters global dialogue on precision immunotherapy in musculoskeletal aging, bridges mechanistic research with patient‑centered applications, and strengthens the translational pipeline for regenerative orthopaedics. The swift dissemination of these findings positions the work as a catalyst for innovation, collaboration, and evidence‑based strategies to mitigate age‑related bone loss and inflammatory joint disease."

"Dear BPG Editorial Office, Thank you very much for your message and for the opportunity to complete the Authors Evaluation. I sincerely appreciate the editorial team’s professional handling of my manuscript and the journal’s transparent, author-friendly review and publishing process. I have no substantive concerns regarding the editorial or peer-review process. My only suggestion is that the interval between manuscript acceptance and final publication could be further shortened. If feasible, streamlining the post-acceptance production workflow—such as expediting copyediting, typesetting, author proof correction, and online-first publication—would help ensure that accepted articles become available to readers more promptly, without compromising editorial or scientific rigor. Shortening the acceptance-to-publication time would enhance the timeliness of research dissemination and further improve author satisfaction and the journal’s competitiveness. Thank you again for your excellent work and for considering this suggestion."

"I experienced an unusual delay from acceptance to publication, which I have never faced in my other publications. However, it is a moment of happiness to have a publication in a prestigious journal like World J of Stem Cells. I suggest communicating the reason for the delay to the authors so they can avoid anything that may cause it. This is because this is unusual with BPG."

"Dear Editorial Office, Thank you for the opportunity to respond to the editorial on our study of composite electrocardiography and heart-rate-variability indices during percutaneous coronary intervention. We would like to record our appreciation of how the manuscript was handled. The exchange itself — an editorial commentary followed promptly by an authors' reply in the same journal — is exactly the kind of post-publication dialogue that improves a research programme rather than merely defending it, and we are grateful that World Journal of Cardiology makes room for it. The process was both quick and substantive: 79 days from submission to acceptance, with a clear editorial timeline at every stage and an external review that engaged with the scientific content rather than with formalities. The reviewer's comments were specific and constructive, and they helped us sharpen the distinction between the validated construction of the indices and the exploratory clustering that still requires independent validation. Communication from the editorial office was prompt and unambiguous throughout, and the open-access format ensures that the discussion reaches the readers it concerns. We thank the editors, the peer reviewer and the editorial staff for their work, and we look forward to submitting the prospective, reference-standard-anchored study outlined in this reply to your journal. Yours sincerely, Oleksandr P Romanchuk, on behalf of all authors"
