Editorial Coordination
Initial screening, reviewer assignment, timeline monitoring, and decision synthesis are managed by an editorial workflow designed for clinical quality and methodological fairness.

Transparent APC Framework for Journal of Thrombosis and Treatments
The Journal of Thrombosis and Treatments uses a transparent article processing charge policy to sustain rigorous editorial operations, expert peer review, technical production quality, and long term open access visibility. Our APC structure is designed for clinicians, hematology researchers, vascular medicine teams, anticoagulation investigators, and institutions that need predictable publication costs and compliance ready billing documentation. Charges are confirmed only after editorial acceptance, and we support both institutional and direct payment routes with clear invoicing and practical communication.

APC Pricing by Article Category
Fees reflect editorial complexity, reviewer coordination requirements, and production scope. All pricing is in USD and applies only after acceptance and final author confirmation.
| Article Type | APC Fee | Publishing Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Original Research Article | USD 1,850 | Clinical and translational thrombosis studies with complete methods and outcomes. |
| Review Article | USD 1,950 | Comprehensive evidence syntheses on prevention, diagnosis, and treatment strategy. |
| Systematic Review and Meta Analysis | USD 2,100 | Protocol driven pooled evidence analysis and comparative intervention assessment. |
| Case Report or Case Series | USD 950 | Clinically informative rare presentations and management pathways. |
| Brief Communication | USD 750 | Focused findings and time sensitive thrombosis evidence updates. |
| Editorial or Commentary | USD 450 | Expert perspective on clinical policy, service planning, and evidence interpretation. |
| Letter to the Editor | USD 350 | Scholarly discussion and post publication methodological clarification. |
No hidden fee policy: standard APC includes peer review management, production formatting, metadata preparation, DOI integration, and open access hosting without surprise line item additions.
What the APC Supports
APC revenue is allocated to quality critical publishing workflows that protect research reliability and improve downstream discoverability.
Peer Review Quality
Specialist reviewers in thrombosis, vascular medicine, hemostasis, and anticoagulation evaluate scientific rigor, practical significance, and interpretation reliability.
Production and Metadata
Accepted manuscripts are copyedited, formatted, and prepared with machine readable metadata to support citation systems and global discovery channels.
Long Term Open Access
APCs support persistent hosting and technical maintenance so published evidence remains accessible for clinicians, educators, and policy teams without subscription barriers.
Discounts, Waivers, and Funding Constraints
Active membership can reduce APC obligations significantly, and eligible institutional agreements may provide additional cost support. Authors with documented funding constraints may request partial assistance, reviewed confidentially and independently from editorial merit decisions. This protects fairness while preserving access for strong research from diverse settings.
Waiver requests should be raised during submission or revision so billing options can be confirmed before final acceptance. Late requests are still reviewed, but earlier communication improves processing speed and internal approval alignment.
Billing and Payment Workflow
- Invoice issued after acceptance and final file verification.
- Institutional invoicing available for departments and grant offices.
- Direct payment routes include supported electronic methods.
- Receipts and documentation can be aligned for grant reporting.
- Finance clarification is available through the editorial support desk.
If your institution requires a purchase order or cost center reference, include that information immediately after acceptance.
APC Process in Practice
The publishing workflow is intentionally structured to remain predictable for authors and administrators.
Submit Manuscript
Upload your manuscript through Manuscriptzone or simple submission with complete metadata and declarations.
Peer Review Decision
Review feedback is consolidated into a clear decision with focused guidance for revision or acceptance progression.
Invoice Issuance
APC documentation is issued after final acceptance with payment options aligned to author or institution preference.
Publication Release
Production and metadata checks are completed before final open access publication and discovery distribution.
Budget Planning for Research Groups
Teams can avoid acceptance stage delays by defining APC responsibility before submission. Confirm whether publication cost will be covered by principal investigator funds, institutional support, or external grant allocation. Multicenter teams should designate one billing coordinator and one backup contact to prevent approval gaps when corresponding author responsibilities are split across institutions.
For hospitals and academic departments with formal purchasing rules, include required cost center codes and invoice references early. Providing those details during acceptance can cut payment cycle time significantly and keep production on schedule.
Funding Communication Best Practice
State funding constraints early and request documentation support where needed. If your finance office requires staged invoices or specific narrative wording, notify the office immediately after acceptance. Early alignment improves transparency and reduces administrative friction for both authors and institutions.
APC readiness tip: align funding owner, invoice route, and approval sequence before submission. Early planning shortens administrative delay after acceptance and keeps publication schedule predictable for clinical and translational teams.
For multicenter projects, align APC ownership in writing across institutions before submission to avoid approval conflicts after acceptance.
Administrative alignment before submission is a practical advantage for multicenter thrombosis teams. Confirm invoice owner, approval route, and payment contact in advance to avoid delays after acceptance.
