Journal / East and Central African Journal of Surgery / Vol. 28 No. 3 (2023): Issue in progress / Articles

 

Articles assigned to this issue may currently be at any of various stages throughout the production process after their acceptance for publication in the East and Central African Journal of Surgery.

Articles in Press are published under 3 possible category labels: (1) Accepted articles are initially modified for consistent formatting and presentation and to include a cover page with metadata and citation information. While articles are undergoing copyediting, typesetting, and proofreading by editors and authors, we may publish preliminary versions as (2) Uncorrected Proofs, which have been copyedited and typeset but will go further proofreading and correction. Articles may also be published as (3) Corrected Proofs, which are the author-approved final versions that lack final citation details, such as page numbers, volume number, issue number, or digital object identifier. We publish these versions so that they can be accessed and cited as early as possible, but readers must be mindful that finalized articles may differ from earlier versions and that errors may be detected throughout the production process.

Early-access articles can be cited using the citation information displayed within the respective article files. The original publication date will be indicated in all versions of each published article, including the final version of record.
