Asploro is committed to providing authors with the best possible experience when it comes to submitting their work. Our team of experienced editors and support staff is available to help authors at every stage of the process, from manuscript preparation to final publication. We offer detailed author guidelines, resources, and support to ensure that your paper is of the highest quality and that it stands the best chance of being accepted for publication. With a fast and efficient peer-review process and a commitment to open access, Asploro is the ideal choice for authors looking to publish their work in a leading Asploro journals.

This double-blind peer review process helps ensure the impartiality and objectivity of the review, and allows the authors to receive constructive feedback from experts in their field. The review process typically takes 2 to 4 weeks, during which time the reviewers evaluate the scientific quality and validity of the research, and provide feedback to the authors on how to improve the manuscript. Once the review process is complete, the editorial team will make a decision on whether to accept, reject, or request revisions to the manuscript. The goal of this process is to ensure that only high-quality research is published, and that the authors have the opportunity to improve their work prior to publication.

It is important to follow ethical standards and best practices when submitting a manuscript for publication. Submitting work that has been published elsewhere, or is under consideration for publication elsewhere, may be considered a breach of ethical standards and may result in the rejection of your manuscript. It is also important to obtain approval from all co-authors and the responsible authorities at your institution before submitting your work for publication. By following these guidelines, you can ensure that your work is considered for publication with the highest standards of scientific integrity and ethics.

This helps to ensure that the journal only publishes high-quality, relevant research, and that the peer-review process is focused on articles that have a strong chance of being accepted for publication. By conducting a pre-review screening process, the journal can reduce the amount of time and effort that is spent on peer-reviewing articles that do not meet the standards or scope of the journal, saving time for both authors and reviewers. This helps to streamline the publication process and ensures that authors receive feedback on their work in a timely manner.

The authors should clearly present their research findings and should write the article in a manner that makes it easily understandable to a broad audience. The language used in the article should be clear and concise, and the information should be presented in a way that is accessible to people with varying levels of scientific knowledge. This helps to ensure that the research can be communicated to a wider audience, including those who may not be familiar with the specific field or terminology.

Review Articles

Review articles are written based mostly on secondary data that is falling in line with the content of the journal. They are brief, yet critical discussions on a specific aspect of the subject concerned. Reviews generally start with the statement of the problem with a brief abstract of 350 words, 8-10 keywords, and should not exceed 5,000 words of text. Introduction generally brings the issue forward to the readers followed by an analytical discussion with the help of necessary tables, graphs, pictures, and illustrations wherever necessary. It summarizes the topic with a conclusion. All the statements or observations in the review articles must be based on necessary citations, with complete references.

Clinical Image

  1. The ideal Clinical Images provides visual information that will be useful to other clinicians.

  2. Clinical Images should be interesting, educational, and respectful of the patient.

  3. The authors must obtain signed informed consent for publication electronically. If you have taken consent appropriately, masking is not necessary to anonymize patients.

  4. The authors must have been involved in the care of the patient.

  5. Use no more than 500 words and the text should include a brief patient history and put the high-quality image in context, explaining what the image shows, why it is of interest to the general reader, and the outcome of the patient.
