A different editorial philosophy

CNJ does not use the traditional sequence of anonymous reviewer reports followed by repeated manual rewriting. Instead, every submission enters a structured, AI-reviewed scientific and editorial process. Its purpose is twofold: to reduce avoidable delay and to assess each work through consistent criteria centred on methodology, reporting quality, internal coherence, scientific caution, ethics and clinical relevance.

The system does not merely return a list of suggestions. It applies every scientifically safe correction directly and gives the author a complete, editable manuscript prepared in the journal format. The author remains in control: they may approve that version or edit it and submit it again. Each new upload undergoes the same full assessment and returns as a new journal-prepared version.

What replaces traditional peer review?

Structured scientific assessmentEvery manuscript is examined against the same explicit domains, with the applicable reporting guideline selected for its design.
Evidence-based verificationImportant claims and questionable references may be checked against identifiable peer-reviewed literature, professional guidance, regulators and authoritative public-health sources.
Corrections already appliedLanguage, organisation, reporting, terminology, cautious interpretation and reference presentation are corrected in the prepared manuscript whenever this can be done without changing the authors' facts.
Questions only when necessaryMissing data, ethical declarations or scientific ambiguities that cannot be solved safely are marked at their exact location as an author query; information is never invented.
Repeatable editorial roundsIf the author edits the journal-prepared DOCX, the new file becomes the authoritative version and receives a fresh complete assessment.
Explicit author approvalNo prepared manuscript becomes the version of record until the corresponding author has reviewed and approved it for publication.

How scientific quality is assessed

01 · Research questionPurpose and designClarity of the objective or hypothesis, suitability of the study design and consistency between the question, methods and conclusions.
02 · ReproducibilityMethods and populationSetting, participants, eligibility, interventions or exposures, outcomes, follow-up and sufficient detail to understand or reproduce the work.
03 · Analytical rigourData and statisticsCompleteness of results, denominators, uncertainty, statistical methods when applicable and agreement between text, tables, figures and numerical data.
04 · Valid interpretationBias, limitations and claimsRisk of bias, confounding, limitations, alternative explanations, generalisability and proportionality between the evidence obtained and the claims made.
05 · Responsible publicationEthics, consent and privacyEthical approval where applicable, informed consent, conflicts, funding, data integrity, clinical safety and removal of identifying patient information.
06 · Reporting standardGuideline and reference qualityUse of the most appropriate framework—such as CONSORT, STROBE, PRISMA, CARE, STARD, TRIPOD or SQUIRE—and verification that references are attributable and support the relevant statements.
Important scientific boundary

This process is a structured automated editorial assessment, not independent human peer review. It improves consistency and transparency but cannot certify truth, originality or absence of misconduct. Authors remain responsible for the accuracy of their data, authorship, permissions, ethical compliance and the approved version.

More than a publication platform

CNJ is designed as a scientific knowledge environment for clinicians and researchers, connecting published articles with tools that make trustworthy information easier to retrieve and apply.

CNJ Agent

A clinical consultation assistant grounded in the complete validated texts of published CNJ articles. It identifies the sources used and asks permission before researching outside the trusted collection.

Personal and collective libraries

Eligible users may upload trusted books, articles and documents, while professional collectives maintain shared selections. Every upload enters the controlled CNJ master catalogue, remains distinct from the journal's validated corpus and is available only to the uploader unless Editorial Office assigns it to another authorised user or collective.

Medical-report evaluator

A private browser-based tool that reviews the documentary completeness and internal congruence of medical reports, assigns a structured score and identifies sections requiring improvement without sending or storing the report content.

Submission and common publication format

Start with the material you haveUpload the main manuscript and any relevant tables, figures, appendices or presentations. A journal template is optional at first submission.
Provide one contact emailThe system extracts the title, authors, affiliations, article type, specialty, abstract and keywords, then asks only for genuinely missing information.
Receive a complete author proofEvery successful round produces an editable DOCX and a review PDF with the same CNJ architecture, typography, headings, metadata order and publication presentation.
Approve or improveApprove a version that is ready, or edit the prepared DOCX and upload it again. Publication remains locked while material scientific, ethical, privacy or reporting issues are unresolved.

Article types

Original article

Reports original clinical or health-science research with a clearly defined question, methods, results and interpretation.

Clinical case

Presents a clinically instructive case and explains its diagnostic, therapeutic or practice relevance.

Surgical technique

Describes a reproducible operative or procedural approach with its rationale and practical considerations.

Review article

Synthesises and critically interprets evidence relevant to clinical practice.

Brief communication

Communicates a focused finding, preliminary result or concise clinical contribution.

About the journal

Journal information and policies

Scope, governance and editorial-policy information for readers and authors.

Pre-launch editorial information. Governance, publisher, licensing, fees and formal policy texts require editorial approval before public launch. This page distinguishes implemented workflow from information still awaiting confirmation.

Aims & Scope

Clinical Nexus Journal provides a multidisciplinary venue for clinically relevant original research, clinical cases, surgical techniques, review articles and brief communications. The journal is designed to connect evidence, clinical reasoning and practical care across medical, surgical and health-science specialties.

Requires confirmation before launch

Editorial Board

The names, roles, affiliations and declarations of the Editor-in-Chief and Editorial Board will be published only after appointments have been formally confirmed.

AI Editorial Preparation

Clinical Nexus Journal does not use the conventional cycle of anonymous reviewer reports and author-led rewriting. Every submission instead receives a structured automated scientific assessment focused on methodology, reporting completeness, internal consistency, ethical and privacy requirements, clinical safety, references and proportionate interpretation.

The journal applies all scientifically safe improvements directly and produces a complete editable author proof in the standard CNJ structure. Claims and references may be verified against identifiable peer-reviewed literature, professional guidelines, regulators and authoritative public-health sources. Information that cannot be established safely is never invented: it becomes a precise author query at the relevant location.

The corresponding author may approve the prepared version or edit it and upload it again. Each new upload starts a complete new assessment. Publication requires complete metadata, resolved scientific and ethical issues, a passed readiness check and explicit author approval.

This is structured automated editorial assessment, not independent human peer review. Authors retain responsibility for data accuracy, originality, authorship, ethical approval, consent, conflicts, permissions and clinical safety.

Requires confirmation before launch

Publication Ethics

A formal policy covering authorship, duplicate publication, plagiarism, research misconduct, conflicts of interest, informed consent, human and animal research, data integrity and complaint handling must be approved before launch.

Authors should follow applicable institutional and legal requirements and consult the ICMJE Recommendations. The final journal policy should also align with the COPE guidance.

Requires confirmation before launch

Open Access, Copyright & Fees

The access model, reuse licence, copyright terms, archiving policy and any author charges have not been entered into the journal system. These details must be confirmed before they are presented as journal policy.

Requires confirmation before launch

Corrections, Retractions & Versions

The public catalogue does not yet store correction, retraction or article-version metadata. A formal process and visible version-of-record notices should be added with the corresponding backend fields.

Requires confirmation before launch

Use of Artificial Intelligence

The journal uses AI for editorial assessment, language and structural recommendations, and publication preparation. Authors must disclose material AI-assisted writing, image generation or data analysis. AI systems must not be listed as authors.

CNJ master source library

One central catalogue for every CNJ, Editorial Office, user and collective source. A source can be assigned to any authorised user or collective without losing its original provenance or quality assessment.

One canonical source, controlled distributionEvery document uploaded by Editorial Office, a user or a collective enters this master catalogue. Exact matches by file name and SHA-256 content reuse the existing master copy. Assignments only grant access. Public Agent access can be removed while retaining the master source; permanent Agent-library deletion removes its assignments but never unpublishes a journal article or deletes its published PDF.
PDF, DOC, DOCX, PPTX, TXT, Markdown or HTML · maximum 100 MB per file · never upload identifiable patient information.
