SciRev-Speeding up scientific knowledge production

2018-11-03T20:06:33-07:00

SciRev (https://scirev.org/) offers you the possibility to share your experience with the scientific review process with your colleagues (left search engine) and to select an efficient journal for submitting your manuscripts (right search engine).

Because we would like to increase the quality of the review process, please register and submit review of your article published in Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (https://www.id-press.eu/mjms/index) in the SciRev (https://scirev.org/questionnaire/macedonian-journal-of-medical-sciences/).

SciRev is a website made by researchers for researchers. The information provided by you and your fellow authors is freely available to the entire research community. In this way we aim to make the scientific review process more transparent. Efficient journals get credits for their efforts to improve their review process and the way they handle manuscripts. Less efficient journals are stimulated to put energy in organizing things better. Researchers can search for a journal with a speedy review procedure and have their papers published earlier. Editors get the opportunity to compare their journal's performance with that of others and to provide information about their journal at our website.

SciRev aims to help science by making the peer review process more efficient. This process is one of the weakest links in the process of scientific knowledge production. Valuable papers may spent several months to over a year at reviewers' desks and editorial offices before a decision is taken. This is a serious time loss in a process that in other respects has become much more efficient in the last decades. SciRev helps speeding up this process by making it more transparent. Researchers get the possibility to share their review experiences with their colleagues, who therefore can make a better informed choice for a journal to submit their work to. Journals that manage to set up a more efficient review process and which handle manuscripts better are rewarded for this and may attract more and better manuscripts.

Articles will be moved from Current Content to Archive with online publication of the next issue.

OAMJMS on the new OJS 3.x platform

2018-10-06T01:45:07-07:00

Starting of September 18, 2018 Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences was upgraded on the new OJS 3.x platform (https://www.id-press.eu/mjms/). This journal uses Open Journal Systems 3.1.1.4, which is open source journal management and publishing software developed, supported, and freely distributed by the Public Knowledge Project under the GNU General Public License. OJS assists with every stage of the refereed publishing process, from submissions through to online publication and indexing. Through its management systems, its finely grained indexing of research, and the context it provides for research, OJS seeks to improve both the scholarly and public quality of refereed research.

We hope you will recognize our permanent efforts to improve the quality of OAMJMS and we expect the submission of your manuscripts.

Cordially,
Prof. Dr. Mirko Spiroski

OAMJMS included in the SCImago Journal & Country Rank

2018-06-01T00:00:00-07:00

Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (OAMJMS) included in the SCImago Journal & Country Rank (SJCR)

Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (OAMJMS) was included in the SCImago Journal & Country Rank and Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (MJMS) was canceled of presentation.

The SCImago Journal & Country Rank (SJCR) is a publicly available portal that includes the journals and country scientific indicators developed from the information contained in the ScopusÂ® database (Elsevier B.V.). These indicators can be used to assess and analyze scientific domains. Journals can be compared or analysed separately. Country rankings may also be compared or analysed separately. The SJCR allows you also to embed significative journal metrics into your web as a clickable image widget (see at: https://www.scimagojr.com/journalsearch.php?q=21100824403&tip=sid&exact=no).

SCImago is a research group from the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones CientÃficas (CSIC), University of Granada, Extremadura, Carlos III (Madrid) and AlcalÃ¡ de Henares, dedicated to information analysis, representation and retrieval by means of visualisation techniques.

I hope this information will be recognized as a continuous improvement of the quality of the published papers in OAMJMS (http://www.id-press.eu/mjms/index) and look forward to your next submission.

OAMJMS is not a predatory journal

2018-03-20T00:00:00-07:00

We received information from the Administrator ofÂ beallslist.weebly.com and would like to share with you:

â€œâ€¦ Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences is also indexed by DOAJ, which I would trust more than Scopus or PubMed. I will add a comment on the website. Just as a comment: seems like this is actually the only journal listed by DOAJ of this publisher. Best wishes, Administrator ofÂ beallslist.weebly.comâ€

The note â€œId Press / ID DesignÂ (note: one of their journals - OAMJMSÂ - is indexed in DOAJ)â€ is added and could be found on the updated URL address: Â https://beallslist.weebly.com/

We would like to inform authors, readers and institutions that Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (OAMJMS) is not on the list of â€œPotential PredatoryÂ Scholarly Open AccessÂ Publishersâ€ (https://beallslist.weebly.com/).

OAMJMS and MJMS divided in the SCOPUS Database!

2017-11-02T00:00:00-07:00

Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (MJMS) (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nlmcatalog/101519209) cancelled its publication in 2013 year and continues as an Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (OAMJMS) (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nlmcatalog/101662294). SCOPUS database decided to keep previous name of the journal (Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences) and to add â€œOpen Accessâ€ as modification until November 2017. Finally, SCOPUS database decided to divide both journals and connect them. At the moment metrics of both journals can be visible at SCImago Journal & Country Rank (SJR) as a whole, but next year they will be separately shown.

You can find Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (OAMJMS) at the following URL address: https://www.scopus.com/sourceid/21100824403 with the explanation â€œFormerly known as: Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciencesâ€, and Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (MJMS) at the following URL address: https://www.scopus.com/sourceid/19600157021 with the explanation â€œContinued as: Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciencesâ€.

You need username and password to enter the SCOPUS database. The best way to check papers published in OAMJMS and MJMS deposited in the SCOPUS database is to search them by authors, not by journal.

I hope this will be accepted as a continuation of publication activity of the Editorial Board of OAMJMS and MJMS and will help authors to search their articles deposited in the SCOPUS database. If you have any additional question, please, do not hesitate to contact me.

OAMJMS was included in PMC CANADA

2017-01-01T00:00:00-08:00

Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (OAMJMS) was included in PMC CANADA (http://pubmedcentralcanada.ca/pmcc/journals/2740/).

PMC Canada provides free access to a stable and permanent online digital archive of full-text, peer-reviewed health and life sciences research publications. It builds onÂ PubMed CentralÂ (PMC), the U.S.Â National Institutes of HealthÂ (NIH) free digital archive of biomedical and life sciences journal literature and is a member of the broaderÂ PMC InternationalÂ (PMCI) network of e-repositories.

PMC Canada aims to provide a freely accessible, Canada-based archive of biomedical and health research findings. With PMC, NLM has taken the lead in preserving and maintaining access to the electronic literature, just as it has done for decades with printed biomedical literature. PMC aims to fill the role of a world class library in the digital age. It is not a journal publisher. NLM believes that giving all users free access to the material in PMC is the best way to ensure the durability and utility of the archive as technology changes over time.

PMCI is a collaborative effort between the U.S.Â National Library of MedicineÂ (NLM), the publishers whose journal content makes up the PMC archive, and organizations in other countries that share NLM's interest in archiving life sciences literature.

We are trying continuously to improve the quality of the published papers in OAMJMS (http://www.id-press.eu/mjms/index).

We hope that you will select Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences as the outlet for your work and look forward to your next submission.

OAMJMS was included in the OpenAIRE database

2016-11-16T00:00:00-08:00

Our journalÂ Open AccessÂ Macedonian Journal of Medical SciencesÂ (OAMJMS) was included in the OpenAIRE database (https://www.openaire.eu/search/dataprovider?datasourceId=iddesignpres::ece446be62587cba8edc050d9a5e0b91).

In the OpenAIRE2020 Project, 50 partners (from all EU countries, and beyond) will collaborate to work on this large-scale initiative that aims to promote open scholarship and substantially improve the discoverability and reusability of research publications and data. The initiative brings together professionals from research libraries, open scholarship organisations, national e-Infrastructure and data experts, IT and legal researchers, showcasing the truly collaborative nature of this pan-European endeavor. A network of people, represented by the National Open Access Desks (NOADs), will organise activities to collect H2020 project outputs, and support research data management. Backing this vast outreach, is the OpenAIRE platform, the technical infrastructure that is vital for pulling together and interconnecting the large-scale collections of research outputs across Europe. The project will create workflows and services on top of this valuable repository content, which will enable an interoperable network of repositories (via the adoption of common guidelines), and easy upload into an all-purpose repository.

We hope we can increase the quality of OAMJMS by inclusion the authorâ€™s papers in the most relevant databases in the World.

We invite you to select Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences as the outlet for your work and look forward to your next submission.

Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences was included in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) with the entire content (https://doaj.org/toc/1857-9655). The content of Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences from the issue 1, volume 3, 2015 was included in the PubMed Central database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/journals/2987/), in Europe PMC (http://europepmc.org/journals/2946/), and in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=Open+Access+Maced+J+Med+Sci.).

SCOPUS database decided to keep previous name of the journal (Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences) and to add â€œOpen Accessâ€ as modification. You can find all published papers in both journals at the following URL address: https://www-scopus-com.scopeesprx.elsevier.com/source/sourceInfo.uri?sourceId=19600157021&origin=sbrowse

You need username and password to enter the SCOPUS database. The best way to check papers published in OAMJMS and MJMS in the SCOPUS databaseÂ is to search them by authors, not by journal.

We sent several letters to the SCOPUS team to find better solutions, but at the moment this is the real presentation of both journal names. Probably this is the better solution, because the bibliometric analyses are more precise if they are continuous in both journal names (see:Â http://www.scimagojr.com/journalsearch.php?q=19600157021&tip=sid&clean=0 ).

OAMJMS was included in Europe PMC

2016-06-19T00:00:00-07:00

Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences (OAMJMS) was included in Europe PMC (http://europepmc.org/search?page=1&query=JOURNAL:%22Open+Access+Macedonian+Journal+of+Medical+Sciences%22&restrict=All+results).

The core mission of Europe PMC (http://europepmc.org) is to build open, full-text scientific literature resources and support innovation by engaging users, enabling contributors and integrating related research data.

Europe PMC does this primarily by providing access and adding value to over 29 million abstracts and 3 million full-text articles. Europe PMC is a partner in PMC International (PMCi), along with PMC USA and PMC Canada (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/about/pmci/), which means that full-text content is shared by and available from any of these three nodes. The main Europe PMC database is hosted at EMBL-EBI, where this core full-text collection is extended with all PubMed abstracts, selected Agricola abstracts (http://www.ntis.gov/products/agricola.aspx), international patents from the European Patent Office and abstracts from several other smaller sources.

I hope this information will beÂ recognizedÂ as an improvement of the quality of the published papers in OAMJMS (http://www.id-press.eu/mjms/index).

We hope that you will select Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences as the outlet for your work and look forward to your next submission.
