The editor also does not send the work for review to reviewers who share a publication record with the author, who are based at the same institution, who may derive financial benefit from publication, or who are known to have problematic prior dealings with the author.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The journal carries out the review process in a transparent and predictable manner. The timelines below are targets that are met within this framework, save in cases of force majeure:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Where a submission is found to fall fundamentally outside the journal’s scope or formatting rules, it may be rejected without being sent for peer review; the author is informed of the reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After peer review the editor conveys one of the following decisions: accept, minor revision, major revision or reject.
