Plagiarism check via Turnitin or iThenticate, technical formatting review, reference integrity check, and compliance verification — all before your paper reaches a single reviewer's inbox.
A Similarity Index above 20% triggers automatic rejection at most Embase indexed journals. Many authors are unaware that methods sections, previous self-publications, or poorly paraphrased text raise the score.
Journals require specific section orders and subheadings. A missing Methods subsection or a combined Results/Discussion section is enough to trigger a desk rejection without review.
Broken DOIs, incorrect author names, wrong journal names, and missing page numbers in the reference list are all red flags that suggest low submission quality to journal editors.
All clinical and research manuscripts must include ethics committee approval, informed consent statements, and conflict of interest declarations. Absence of any is an immediate rejection trigger.
Exceeding abstract word limits (usually 250–300 words) or total manuscript word limits (2,500–5,000 words for original articles) leads to desk rejection regardless of scientific quality.
Journals require figures at 300 dpi or higher. Low-resolution images embedded in Word documents are a common technical rejection reason that authors only discover after waiting weeks for a response.

Most Embase indexed journals require a Similarity Index below 15–20% after excluding the reference list and standard phrases. We review the full report with you and advise on which matches are acceptable (quoted text, methods descriptions) and which need paraphrasing.
Technical screening checks word count compliance, section structure (abstract, introduction, methods, results, discussion, conclusion), figure and table formatting, reference list completeness, ethical statement presence, declaration of conflicts, and author contribution statements.
