From acceptance to online publication

After acceptance, half of the 2022 articles appeared online within 27 days (middle half 20–38 days, n = 3,218).

From submission to online publication, the median was 77 days (middle half 60–104 days, n = 3,218).

Read these numbers carefully

  • These times describe articles the journal accepted. Rejected manuscripts never appear in public data, so they cannot tell you how long a rejection takes.
  • Dates are the ones the publisher deposited with PubMed. Some publishers record the date a revised manuscript arrived as the submission date, which makes review look faster.
  • Invited articles and special issues can move faster than regular submissions.
