Response to peer-review

Peer review (PR) is regarded as a crucial step in the process of selecting scientific medical papers for journal publication . However, many authors are frequently frustrated or disappointed by exhaustive criticism, and occasionally embarrassed to hear from an anonymous reviewer that their paper is junk or not fit to publish. When authors believe that the comments are inaccurate, biased, malevolent or hostile, the PR process can occasionally be emotionally taxing.

Are you facing such a situation?

If you agree with the comment, acknowledge it and mention the changes you made. There is a particular format for the same. If you disagree with the reviewer’s suggestion, provide a reasonable explanation as to why you did not make the suggested change. If additional work or experiment is recommended, just do it if possible. Otherwise, tactfully explain why the additional work cannot be performed.
