Submitted manuscript on 2022-11-21 and received acceptance email on 2023-05-12, taking over half a year from submission to acceptance. It took one month for the manuscript to be sent for review, during which it remained under consideration. After over a month of review, feedback was received from two reviewers. Both the first and second reviewer provided constructive comments that greatly improved the quality of the manuscript, indicating their professionalism. The first reviewer suggested three additional wet experiments, but due to certain reasons, only two of the issues were addressed through experimental supplementation, while the other issue was explained through data analysis. The second reviewer raised the same two issues as the first reviewer, along with concerns about animal experiment ethics and the application of statistical analysis methods. After revising the manuscript based on the first round of review, the first reviewer agreed to accept it, while the second reviewer suggested modifying the use of colors in the figures to avoid potential misunderstandings by readers. Overall, the editor agreed with the recommendations. After the second round of revisions, another month passed before receiving the acceptance email. In general, the reviewers' questions were professional and their review was meticulous; however, the review process was relatively slow.

Research focus: Biology; Experience sharing on submission and consultation: Just to supplement the question, I just checked the faseb homepage and there have been some changes, it now says "preliminary submission data submitted," and below that it says "continue halted submission." When I clicked on it, the suggested reviewers and review data were marked as incorrect. After I resubmitted, everything went back to normal and there were no red arrows. Is this situation normal? Also, my article has two corresponding authors, but I can't seem to check both of them in the authorship section and the "dual corresponding author" field is empty. Can I contact the editor to make changes?

I would like to ask, I did not receive any confirmation message from the corresponding author and first author's email after submitting the manuscript, is this situation normal?

Has the situation changed now? Shall I remind the editor as well?

What nonsense are you talking about? Where are the 5000+ articles? If you have the ability, submit an article for me to see. In 2022, there were less than 1000 articles published in total. Don't randomly add chaos and disturb everyone's submissions.

Do you know what's going on with this situation? It goes from "out for review" to "under consideration" in a few days or even hours. Did the reviewer actually review it? Or does "under consideration" after "out for review" mean the reviewer is still considering it? My changes are the same as yours. What does this mean?

Hello, may I ask what the changes in your status are like? How often and how long does it usually take for a status to change from "under consideration" to "out for review"? ? My status changed from "out for review" to "under consideration" after just a few days, but it has been unchanged for over half a month. Do you know what might be the reason for this? ? Thank you!

Is FASEB J going downhill? Even in March 2023, its impact factor is only 0.8. The publication volume in 2022 was over 5k. The citation rate is 6k. What's going on?
