Triage of manuscripts
• Blinded triage by DE/editor of all research manuscripts
• Common reasons to decline to formally review a manuscript:
– Limited new information
– Inadequate sample size
– Major methodologic issues
– Subject outside our readers’ interests
• About 20% of manuscripts are rejected by this mechanism
after review by 2 of our editorial group

iThenticate Software
• Starting 2014 we use this on all potentially accepted
articles
• Word matching – Similarity report generated
• Materials and Methods most common area for overlap
with prior publications
– Most important message to authors is to appropriately
reference previously published material, even if it is
from your own research group
