ANNOUNCEMENT Articles in Press To Our Authors, Readers, and Subscribers, We write to update you on an important new offering that enhances the value provided to you by the Journal of Surgical Research. A few months ago we and our publisher, Elsevier, agreed to transmit digital S200s (Corrected Author Page Proofs) to MEDLINE as a means to expedite the availability of an author’s peer-reviewed work before it appeared in print. We made this decision not only because the digital technology was there to be implemented by Elsevier, but because we wanted to make your scientific discoveries available to our readers as soon as feasible. Please allow us to explain what all of this means to you as an author and reader. Though your accepted article may not yet to be assigned to an issue (with Volume, Issue, and Page Numbers), the National Library of Medicine’s MEDLINE Abstracting Service still holds the article in its Archival Library as its Version of Record with a distinct DOI Number (Digital Object Identifier). This means the article can be referenced and “cited” in the medical/surgical literature. Your manuscript is posted at Pub Med Central (PMC) months before it appears in print. In this way, new, innovative and cutting-edge peer-reviewed material can be made quickly available online to surgeons and other health care professionals before articles appear in print. For greater clarification, the Articles in Press section of the JSR’s fulltext website (www.JournalofSurgicalResearch.com) presents a full explanation of the different production stages (S100s–Uncorrected Proofs, S200s–Corrected Proofs, S300s—Final Printed Articles with Vol/Iss/ Pages) that are delivered to the platform. These electronic innovations are designed to accelerate the publication process by pushing your rigorously peer-reviewed research electronically to the universe of surgical scientists and other investigators.
