Integrative Journal of Medical Sciences (ISSN: 2658-8218),abbreviated as IJMS, is an international peer-reviewed open-access journal based on a continuous publication model and aims to publish original works covering all Medical Sciences. IJMS is indexed by EBSCO, ProQuest, ICMJE, Library of Congress, Dimensions, Scilit, and WorldCat.
The scope of the journal is intentionally broad in order to promote interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange among different health-related disciplines. We welcome contributions from various fields including medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, pharmacy, public health, nursing sciences, and biomedical engineering. By embracing this multidisciplinary approach, the journal aims to foster integrative perspectives in medical research and encourage the dissemination of findings that can contribute to improvements in healthcare, clinical practice, and biomedical innovation.
The journal seeks to provide an international platform for researchers, clinicians, and scholars to share new scientific findings, methodologies, and perspectives that advance medical knowledge and ultimately benefit global health.
The journal aims to reach an editorial decision within approximately four to six weeks following submission. During the review process, reviewers may request either minor or major revisions to improve the manuscript. Authors are then invited to submit a revised version addressing the reviewers’ comments, which may undergo additional rounds of peer review if necessary.IJMS follows internationally recognized editorial standards and adheres to the Recommendations for the Conduct, Reporting, Editing, and Publication of Scholarly Work in Medical Journals developed by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE). In addition, the journal complies with the Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing, a joint initiative supported by several organizations dedicated to publication ethics and scholarly communication.
The Integrative Journal of Medical Sciences follows a continuous publication model. Rather than publishing articles in fixed issues at specific intervals, the journal publishes papers individually as soon as they have successfully completed the editorial and peer-review process and have been formally accepted for publication.
Accepted articles are immediately added to the current volume of the journal. This publication model allows for faster dissemination of scientific findings and ensures that new research becomes accessible to the scientific community without unnecessary delays.
IJMS operates under a full open-access policy, meaning that all published content is freely and permanently accessible to readers worldwide without subscription fees or access restrictions.
