Reviewer Guidelines
Ensuring clarity, accuracy, and clinical relevance in oncology peer review.
Peer reviewers are the bedrock of Journal of Hematology and Oncology Research (JHOR). Your evaluation helps authors refine their research and ensures that published work is clinically significant and scientifically sound.
Technical Soundness
- Are the research questions precisely stated and clinically relevant?
- Is the subject population (human/animal) clearly defined and ethically treated?
- Are the methodology and statistical tests appropriate for the data presented?
Clarity & Quality
- Does the abstract accurately summarize the study's core findings?
- Are tables and figures clear, concise, and non-redundant?
- Does the discussion acknowledge study limitations and offer future research paths?
We encourage reviewers to be impartial yet constructive. Please identify errors by line numbers to facilitate author revisions. If a manuscript falls outside the journal's scope, kindly recommend rejection without further review to save both author and journal resources.
Adherence to high-quality language is essential; if language issues impede understanding, please suggest professional editing.
