TRIDHA Scholars means “Independent Scholars” is a group which is solely working for the growth of the researchers, scholars and students by publishing their valuable manuscripts.

TRIDHA scholars, a leading global scientific group which is providing platforms to researchers and scholars in academics, institutions and R&D departments of different fields with quality content through information, products and services.

Our mission is always focused on helping our customers, wherever they are students, scholars or scientific researchers. It leads the way in advancing science, medicine, technologies, and healthcare. We share the commitment with researchers, scholars for advancement in recent developments of scientific research in various fields.

We totally understand the world in which clinicians, academicians and corporate researchers are working, the outcomes they want to achieve and the challenges they face in achieving them.

Open Access

Now days, most publishers own the rights to the articles in their journals. Anyone who wants to read the articles need not to pay to access them online. Anyone who wants to use the articles in any way (Reprints) must obtain permission from the publisher and is often required to pay an additional fee.

Although many researchers can access the journals they need via their institution or by themselves as that is freely accessible.

Open Access is when publications are freely available online to all at no cost and with limited restrictions without any barriers. The unrestricted distribution of research is especially important for authors (as their work gets seen by more people), readers (as they can access and build on the most recent work in the field) and funders (as the work they fund has broader impact by being able to reach a wider audience).

Peer Review Process

Peer review is the system used to assess the quality of a manuscript before it is published. we follow the double blind peer review process so that Independent researchers/reviewers in the relevant research area assess submitted manuscripts for originality, validity, and significance to help editors determine whether a manuscript should be published in the journal.

Double Blind Peer review process is an integral part of scientific publishing that confirms the validity of the manuscript. Peer reviewers are experts who volunteer their time to help in improving the quality of the manuscripts they review.

When a manuscript is submitted to a journal, it is assessed to see if it meets the criteria for submission.

Each manuscript is checked for plagiarism/similar content, and assessed carefully to determine if it fits the aims and scope of the journal. If it does, the editorial team will select potential peer reviewers within the field of research to peer-review the manuscript and make recommendations.

All submit articles are subject to double blind peer review. The publishing house will send manuscripts to outside reviewers selected from an extensive database.

Upon submission, authors are encouraged to submit names of reviewers who they deem appropriate to review their paper. Authors may also indicate persons to whom they do not wish the manuscript sent for review. Articles will be reviewed by at least two reviewers as well as the editorial staff to determine validity, significance, novelty, and potential impact on the field of contents and conclusions. The selection of reviewers will be made on the basis of expertise, impartiality, and equal distribution among the available experts, regardless of geographic origin of the manuscript or locations of the reviewers.

On their recommendation, editors will accept, accept with revisions, or reject a manuscript.

To make good judgments, peer reviewers evaluate the content for scientific value and originality, to see that articles adhere to general scientific practice as well as the journal’s specific guidelines, and to check that author have referenced correctly. The reviewer will look closely at the methodology and the validity of the data, and consider the ethical approach. They will then recommend changes. Authors will be advised within the shortest possible time whether their paper is accepted, requires major or minor revisions, or else gets rejected. All necessary efforts will be made to ensure a timely review process.

Authors should note the time from submission to final decision can be shortened by a timely return of a revised manuscript when revision has been requested.

Journal of Clinical Cases and Reports reserves the right to make the final selection of peer reviewers. Journal of Clinical Cases and Reports also reserves the right, at its discretion, to determine the number and kind of manuscripts sent for review, the number of reviewers, the reviewing procedures, and the use made of reviewers’ opinions. In addition to scientific merit, the Editor-in-Chief/Editor reserves the right to evaluate papers without external peer review. Effort is made to complete the review process in a timely manner.

Digital Archiving Policy: All articles published in our journal are archived in Google Scholars.

Reviewers for TRIDHA Scholars

Group relies on the peer review process to uphold the quality and validity of valuable articles and the journals that publish them. Experienced reviewer or interested in reviewing for the first time, we invite you to understand the different pages.

1) What is peer review?

Reviewers play a critical role in scholarly open access publishing. Peer review helps to validate research, establish a method by which it can be evaluated and increase visibility of articles within research communities.

Single blind review

The names of the reviewers are hidden from the author. This is the traditional method of reviewing and is the most common type by far.

• Reviewer anonymity allows for impartial decisions – the reviewers will not be influenced by the authors.
• Authors may be concerned that reviewers in their field could delay publication, giving the reviewers a chance to publish first.
• Reviewers may use their anonymity as justification for being unnecessarily critical or harsh when commenting on the authors’ work.

Double-blind review

Both the reviewer and the author are anonymous.

• Author anonymity prevents any reviewer bias, for example based on an author's country of origin or previous controversial work.
• Articles written by prestigious or renowned authors are considered on the basis of the content of their papers, rather than their reputation.
• Reviewers can often identify the author through their writing style, subject matter or self-citation.
• More information for authors can be found in our Double-Blind Peer Review Guidelines.

2) Becoming a Reviewer

Reviewing requires the investment of time and a certain skill set.

Do you want to be a reviewer?

Reviewers are invited to conduct a review by a journal editor. Editors usually select researchers who are experts in the same subject area as the paper. However, if you think you would be a good reviewer for a specific journal you can always contact one of the journal's editors.

a) Identify which journal you would like to review

b) Check the journal homepage and view full editorial board

c) Contact the relevant editor and inform about availability of yours as a reviewer.

 

3) How to conduct a review

a) Does the article match your area of expertise? Only accept if you feel you can provide a high-quality review.

b) Do you have a potential conflict of interest? Disclose this to the editor when you respond.

c) Do you have time? Reviewing can be a lot of work – before you commit, make sure you can meet the deadline.

d) Finally: educate yourself on the peer review process

Your Recommendation

a) Reject (explain reason in report)

b) Accept without revision

c) Revise - either major or minor (explain the revision that is required and indicate to the editor whether or not you would be happy to review the revised article)
