AI-Assisted, Editor-Adjudicated Peer Review

Internet Medical Journal (IMJ) uses a two-stage artificial intelligence review process for original articles, combined with editorial oversight. This page describes the process. It does not disclose the review prompts, which remain internal.

Stage 1: Confidential Review

Upon submission, a large language model conducts an initial review functioning as a standard peer reviewer. This review is confidential, visible only to the editor and the corresponding author, and is never published. The author may revise the manuscript or respond to the points raised.

Stage 2: Published Review

After the author's response, a second AI review is conducted. This review is published alongside the accepted article and takes one of two forms:

  • Critical issue identified. The manuscript is returned to the authors or rejected. At editorial discretion, authors may be granted one further opportunity to revise and resubmit.
  • No critical issue identified. The review consists of a brief summary: what the manuscript does well, and what readers should scrutinize or treat with caution. This is not a numeric score or a pass/fail checklist; it is a concise orientation for readers approaching the published article.

The editor may edit or add to the Stage 2 review before publication. AI output is an input to editorial judgment, not a replacement for it. Final publication decisions rest with the editor.

Commentary Articles

Commentary articles are reviewed by the editor.

Reader Comments

Published articles accept comments from readers with verified ORCID identity. Comments are not endorsed by the IMJ or the editorial board.
