期刊简介预计审稿时间： 偏慢,4-8周

The Journal is international in scope, with author and editorial contributions from across the globe. The focus is on clinical and epidemiological aspects of tropical and infectious diseases, new and re-emerging infections, chronic non-communicable diseases, and medical conditions prevalent in the Latin America-Caribbean region, and of significance to global health, especially in developing countries. The Journal covers all medical disciplines, as well as basic and translational research elucidating the pathophysiologic basis of diseases or focussing on new therapeutic approaches, and publishes original scientific research, reviews, case reports, brief communications, letters, commentaries and medical images. The Journal publishes four to six issues and four supplements annually. English is the language of publication but Abstracts are also duplicated in Spanish. Most of the articles are submitted at the authors’ initiative, but some are solicited by the Editor-in-Chief. Unless expressly stated, the Editorial Board does not accept responsibility for authors’ opinions.

All papers on submission are reviewed by a subcommittee. Those deemed worthy for review are sent to two or three reviewers (one of the three might be a statistician if necessary). The returned papers with reviewer comments are reviewed by the Editor-in-Chief. Papers may be rejected, accepted or sent back to authors for revision. Resubmitted papers from authors are reviewed by the Editor-in-Chief and may be sent back to reviewers or a final decision made by Editor-in-Chief. The decision of the Editorial Board is final with regards to rejected articles. Rejected articles will not be returned to the authors. The editorial subcommittee has the right to return sub-standard manuscripts to the authors, rather than passing them on to the reviewers. This implies outright rejection of the manuscript.

该期刊具有国际视野，作者和编辑人员来自世界各地。重点关注热带和传染病的临床和流行病学方面、新发和复发感染、慢性非传染性疾病以及拉丁美洲和加勒比地区普遍存在的对全球健康（尤其是发展中国家）具有重要意义的疾病。该期刊涵盖所有医学学科，以及阐明疾病病理生理基础或关注新治疗方法的基础和转化研究，并发表原创科学研究、评论、病例报告、简短通讯、信件、评论和医学图像。该期刊每年出版四至六期和四期增刊。出版语言为英语，但摘要也以西班牙语复制。大多数文章是作者主动提交的，但有些文章是由主编征求的。除非明确说明，否则编辑委员会不对作者的意见负责。

提交的所有论文均由小组委员会审查。那些被认为值得审查的论文将被发送给两到三名审稿人（如果有必要，其中一人可能是统计学家）。主编将审阅退回的论文和审稿人的评论。论文可能会被拒绝、接受或退回给作者进行修改。作者重新提交的论文将由主编审阅，并可能退回给审稿人或由主编做出最终决定。对于被拒绝的文章，编辑委员会的决定是最终决定。被拒绝的文章不会退还给作者。编辑小组委员会有权将不合格的手稿退还给作者，而不是将其交给审稿人。这意味着彻底拒绝手稿。
