A manuscript with insufficient originality, serious scientific or technical flaws, or lack of important message is rejected without peer review.

A manuscript with a high priority score is sent to two or more expert reviewers blinded to the contributor’s identity.

This usually takes four to six weeks after submission. The comments received from the reviewers and editors are conveyed to the authors irrespective of the decision on the manuscript.
