Abstract

Perspec ves in medical research has completed ten glorious as a journal this year. The journey was difficult yet very dynamic. The problems for medical journals are enormous. Right from receiving standardmanuscripts which have strong scien fic message, to the proper peer review for ar cles every step was difficult. Ins tu onal Ethics commi ee approval and clinical trial approval for studies was not universal and was not asked regularly for medical journal. Peer review process was not robust and was not objec ve. The CONSORT checklist was not being followed for every ar cle and hence ar cle standard is compromised. The non-availability of technical staff was again an issue.
