From acceptance to online publication

After acceptance, half of the 2025 articles appeared online within 15 days (middle half 14–20 days, n = 114).

From submission to online publication, the median was 164 days (middle half 110–216 days, n = 114).

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.
