Instructions for Reviewers

SALT Journal of Scientific Research in Healthcare request our reviweres to go through the following instructions carefully before reviewing an article.


Peer Review: is the system for evaluating the quality, validity, and relevance of scholarly research. The process aims to provide authors with constructive feedback from relevant experts which they can use to make improvements to their work, thus ensuring it is of the highest standard possible. Authors expect reviews to contain an honest and constructive appraisal, which is completed in a timely manner and provides feedback that is both clear and concise. The peer-review process does receive much criticism and is not without its limitations; however, it remains a widely accepted practice in terms of journal quality.


Purpose of Review: To help authors improve their manuscripts, applying your professional expertise to help others. To assist in maintaining a good, meticulous peer-review process resulting in the publication of good quality papers. To make the author aware of any additional literature that may provide useful comparison, or clarification of an approach.
