About the Journal
The International Journal of Diseases and Disorders (IJDD) is a respected, peer-reviewed, and open-access journal, dedicated to providing an inclusive platform for researchers, clinicians, and healthcare professionals to disseminate and discuss the latest cutting-edge research and advancements in the diverse fields of disease prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and management. Our primary mission is to foster interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration among scientists and practitioners from a wide array of fields, aiming to drive forward innovation and best practices in the comprehensive understanding of human diseases and disorders.
IJDD is committed to upholding the highest standards of scientific excellence, and it publishes an extensive range of articles related to the pathology, therapy, and epidemiology of various diseases. Our focus also extends to the emerging trends and challenges in healthcare, highlighting the latest discoveries and insights that can shape future medical practice and policy. The journal welcomes contributions from all disciplines that intersect with human health, whether from basic molecular research, clinical practice, or public health.
By promoting rigorous scientific inquiry and facilitating the exchange of knowledge across different sectors, IJDD endeavors to bridge the gap between scientific discoveries and practical healthcare applications. The journal not only provides a repository of valuable information but also serves as a catalyst for ongoing research and discussion, ensuring that new findings can be translated into actionable insights and strategies to improve patient care and health outcomes globally. Through our commitment to open access, we ensure that this wealth of knowledge is freely available to researchers, practitioners, and the general public, fostering a more informed and connected global health community.
Open Access
All articles published by this journal are made freely and permanently accessible online immediately upon publication, without subscription charges or registration barriers.
Also, authors of articles published in this journal are the copyright holders of their articles and have granted to any third party, in advance and in perpetuity, the right to use, reproduce or disseminate articles.
Article-processing charges
International Journal of Diseases and Disorders levies an article-processing charge of $500 (USD) for each article accepted for publication. The journal does not charge a submission fee. Authors are required to pay the manuscript handling fee only after their manuscripts have been reviewed and accepted for publication by an editor. Authors can request a waiver or discount during the submission process as the journal routinely waives charges for authors from low-income countries.
Elixir Publishers offsets publication expenses – including the cost of peer review management, journal production, and online hosting and archiving – by charging an Article Processing Charge (APC) to authors, institutions, or funders for each article published. This publication fee varies by journal and is payable upon article acceptance.
Peer-review policy
Peer-review is the system used by International Journal of Diseases and Disorders to assess the quality of a manuscript before it is published. Qualified researchers in the relevant research area assess submitted manuscripts for originality, validity, and significance to help editors determine whether the manuscript should be published.
International Journal of Diseases and Disorders operates a double-blind peer-review system, where the reviewers of the paper won't get to know the identity of the author(s), and the author(s) won't get to know the identity of the reviewer. The advantage of double-blind peer review is that it eliminates bias.
Manuscripts submitted to this journal will generally be reviewed by two or more experts who will be required to evaluate whether the manuscript is scientifically sound and coherent, whether it duplicates already published work, and whether or not the manuscript is sufficiently clear for publication. The Editors will reach a decision based on these reports and, where necessary, they will consult with members of the Editorial Board.
Publication Ethics
Elixir Publishers is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and abides by its Code of Conduct and aims to adhere to its Best Practice Guidelines.
All journals published by Elixir Publishers are committed to publishing only innovative and original material, i.e., material that has neither been published elsewhere, nor is it under consideration for publication by another publisher.
