Final ethics and data disclosures are verified.
Production
Copyediting, proofs, and final metadata preparation.
Post publication updates
Corrections and updates maintain integrity.
Visibility support
Metadata distribution improves discoverability.
- Confirm the manuscript matches the correct article type.
- Prepare a cover letter that explains scope fit and novelty.
- Check that all figures are high resolution and labeled.
- Provide ethics approvals, consent statements, and trial registration numbers.
- Upload supplementary files and data repository links.
- Disclose conflicts of interest and funding sources.
- Ensure all author affiliations are accurate.
- Include a data availability statement with access conditions.
Explain how your work advances tissue repair practice or knowledge beyond existing literature. Clear statements of translational relevance help editors assign the right reviewers.
If your study is interdisciplinary, highlight the tissue repair outcomes and describe how the cross disciplinary approach improves clinical or biological understanding.
Use keywords that reflect both the biological mechanism and the clinical application to improve discoverability and peer review match.
Special issues highlight emerging themes and are managed by guest editors in partnership with the JTRR editorial team. If your work aligns with a theme, indicate the special issue name in your cover letter.
If your manuscript spans multiple themes, prioritize the main focus area so editors can assign appropriate reviewers.
Proposals for future special issues are welcomed year round with a clear scope and plan.
Ensure that ethical approvals, consent documentation, and animal welfare statements are included before submission. Missing approvals can delay peer review.
Data and code should be deposited in appropriate repositories when possible. Provide access links or controlled access instructions in the data availability statement.
Questions about scope fit or submission readiness can be sent to [email protected].
We can confirm whether your topic aligns with current calls.
JTRR values methodological rigor, translational relevance, and clear reporting. We look forward to your submissions.
