Could you please tell me where to access the journal after submitting my manuscript? It seems that I can only find it on Springer Nature, as I can't see anything on the previous submission website. What's going on?

@shuimu, may I ask if the first round of rework requires major repairs and two weeks to complete the rework, there has been no news from the rework since (26.01.22) until now (2026.04.13), is this time interval normal?

@bagamagic, my situation is similar to yours. There has been no progress since the first revision, and I am currently in the process of technical review and peer review. How about you? Have you emailed the editor for an update?

May I ask if the first round of rework requires major repairs and should be completed within two weeks? There has been no news since the rework started on January 26, 2022, until now (April 13, 2026). Is this time interval normal?

The first submission was rejected. This is the second submission. It has been over 5 months since the submission on October 10, 2025. A few days ago, I received the first anonymous peer review comments, made the necessary revisions promptly, and submitted the revised manuscript. I am now unsure how long the next round of review will take, and feeling a bit uncertain!

The submission record is as follows: it took 8 months in total, with two rounds of technical review and modification of format issues before submission, two major revisions during the process, and one additional material supplement. Fortunately, the outcome is good.

Could you please tell me what happened next, OP? I have also been stuck at this picture step with no further updates. It has been over a month since then. Although it was during the Spring Festival, we have been back to work for half a month now. I'm not sure if we haven't found anyone willing to review the manuscript, as everyone is busy applying for national projects as much as possible.

As a reviewer for HSSC, I have reviewed four papers in the past six months. The quality of the manuscripts is average, but my colleagues have all requested major revisions. I hope that we can also encounter kind reviewers. Praying.

Don't worry, reminders will be replied to, it is the editorial staff who will reply, the responsible editor-in-chief will not know.

Not yet, and there has been no response after sending a reminder email.

Hello, has your submission been reviewed yet? How long has it been sitting in the hands of the editor? It's possible that some time has been delayed due to the Christmas holiday in foreign countries.

May I ask what stage of technical review is it? Has it been passed on to the editors?

Have you submitted the data?

Thanks to my colleagues downstairs, the update just entered the third review today, probably due to factors such as holidays and queues.

After just one round of revisions, considering the attitude of the responsible editor towards the article, I evaluated whether there would be any issues with revising it further.

Excuse me, may I ask how many reviews have been conducted downstairs in total? I have not received my second review feedback yet and I am hesitating whether to inquire about it.
