Chapter 386: Exploding Heart

The deadline for review is approaching.

If the deadline for review is exceeded, the author can choose to submit the paper to another journal.

Lu Chen sighed slightly. Really... failed?

"Wait for the last two days. If there is still no news, then switch to Cell journal."

Lu Chen gave himself an ultimatum in his heart!

...

These two days, Lu Chen is the same as usual.

During the day, he worked on the paper in the department, occasionally went to the catheterization room to help, and went back to the dormitory at night to read the cutting-edge papers in the medical field.

On the surface, Lu Chen was calm.

In fact, he was also quite tormented in his heart.

These last two days, rather than being an ultimatum he gave himself, it was better to say that he was unwilling to give up.

On the last night, he found the official website of Cell journal, clicked in, edited his paper, and prepared to submit it.

But at this moment, a prompt suddenly popped up in the lower right corner of the computer-please check for new emails!

Lu Chen was stunned, and his hand clicked in involuntarily.

Then, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes!

It was an email from MTNA!

"Your paper has been Please revise..."

Lu Chen stared at the description in the email, this is...confirmed receipt!

His paper was accepted!

A sense of joy filled his heart, and Lu Chen's right hand holding the mouse trembled slightly.

He thought it was rejected, but he didn't expect to receive a notice of acceptance before the deadline for review!

However, in the email, the reviewer also raised a few comments, such as the insufficient sample size of the experiment, the need to provide original experimental data, and some English sentences may need to be revised.

These are minor problems.

As long as the manuscript is confirmed to be accepted, it means that Lu Chen's paper has been recognized.

MTNA, the current impact factor is 5.45 points, and it is very likely to increase to 7 points next year!

...

At this time, there is more than one Lu Chen in the dormitory.

Wang Zihao noticed Lu Chen's excitement. He stood behind Lu Chen and glanced at the word "" in Lu Chen's email.

"Lu Chen, your paper... was accepted?" Wang Zihao asked immediately.

"Yeah." Lu Chen's face was filled with joy.

"What journal did you submit to?" Wang Zihao asked.

He published in a Chinese journal, and all the communication language of the emails was Chinese.

And Lu Chen's English email clearly showed that he submitted to a foreign journal!

Lu Chen smiled and whispered: "Therapy-Nucleic Acids, abbreviated as MTNA."

Wang Zihao said "Oh" softly. He didn't know what journal this was, and quickly took out his mobile phone to check.

"English journal MTNA..."

The first few columns of the search were all advertisements for publishing papers.

Wang Zihao scrolled down a few lines before he saw an information source that seriously introduced MTNA.

"MTNA's impact factor was 5.12 points last year, and 5.45 points this year, and it was included in Cell!"

"MTNA's impact factor is expected to exceed 7 points next year!"

Wang Zihao was stunned, his mouth was so big that he could fit a fist in it.

Is this a mistake?

MTNA, it's actually a 5-point SCI journal? !

"Lu Chen, are you the first author?"

Seeing Lu Chen nod, Wang Zihao was speechless for a moment.

"This, this... a 5-point SCI paper with a first author?"

Compared to his own Huaxia core paper, it is simply a "sewer"!

Wang Zihao can no longer find any adjectives.

It is simply far from the mark!

"In the review comments, I was asked to revise it." Lu Chen smiled, "It will probably take half a year for it to be published."

The publication speed of papers in SCI journals is relatively slow.

It takes about half a year to a year, unless it is a high-quality paper, it is possible to publish it in an emergency supplement.

"Lu Chen, how did you do it?" Wang Zihao asked from the bottom of his heart.

"What do you want me to say?" Lu Chen said with a smile, "It's not good to let me praise myself, right?"

Wang Zihao: "Lu Chen, can I ask you a favor?"

"You say."

Wang Zihao immediately came to Lu Chen and put his arm around his shoulders: "Can you take me with you in your next clinical trial?"

Lu Chen was stunned, "I'm in cardiology, you're in surgery, how can we be related together?"

"What you said seems to make some sense." Wang Zihao frowned and said, "No matter, I can also help collect data, draw pictures, etc. I have no objection if you give me a third, fourth, or even fifth author."

"Okay, if there is a job suitable for you, I will take you with me."

Wang Zihao was particularly happy to get Lu Chen's promise.

Lu Chen, this is a big man hidden in the dormitory!

If it is a low-scoring SCI paper, such as one or two points, the third and fourth authors are useless.

But Lu Chen's paper is 5 points...

Even if it is a third author, it has a certain gold content!

…

At the same time that Lu Chen received the MTNA email, the other authors of the paper, Professor Li Yao, Ke Yue, and Ke Yue’s roommate, all received the email!

Intracardiac Area 8, Director’s Office.

Li Yao was dealing with the bidding documents for the National Natural Science Foundation when suddenly an English email popped up on her computer.

She thought it was an invitation to an English conference or a spam email.

She was about to close the email directly, but she saw that the sender was MTNA.

She was startled and quickly opened the email.

"Could it be the email that Lu Chen's manuscript was rejected? Now he can send it to other journals with peace of mind." Li Yao thought.

However, when she saw the content of the paper clearly, she was stunned.

MTNA actually accepted the manuscript!

This is not some other "fake" journal.

Among SCI journals, there are many fake journals that Chinese people like to publish.

For example, "and Therapy", "PLOS ONE", etc., there is a risk of being removed from SCI at any time.

But MTNA has just been included in Cell, and it is in the limelight.

In order to hit 7 points, MTNA will definitely strictly control the quality of the paper.

So Li Yao also knows that MTNA's recent manuscript pass rate is very low.

Many doctors around, even graduate supervisors, want to submit to MTNA, but they have been rejected.

"I never expected that Lu Chen's manuscript was actually accepted!"

Professor Li Yao couldn't help but sigh.

The Yangtze River's back waves push the front waves.

She, the front wave, was hit hard on the beach.

What can I say about this...

Lu Chen's paper is of good quality and fills the gap in this field, but she still underestimated the potential of this article.

Dapagliflozin has just started to be promoted in China.

But foreign countries have highly praised dapagliflozin for a long time and it is one of the hottest cardiovascular drugs.

The quality of the paper is good and it just hits the hot spot, which is one of the reasons why Lu Chen's paper was accepted.

"My student is really amazing!" Li Yao said in her heart.

...

Lu Chen originally wanted to keep a low profile, but Ke Yue and her roommate also received this email at the same time.

The fact that he successfully published a 5-point SCI paper instantly set off the cardiology department of Jinghua Second Hospital.
