Abstract
In their paper, authors first illustrated that a trait for an elevated level of serum total IgE was co-inherited with a trait for bronchial hyperresponsiveness and that a gene governing bronchial hyperresponsiveness is located near a major locus that regulates serum IgE levels on chromosome 5q. [...]the journals use different approaches to accept or reject a submitted manuscript. [...]particular journals could have stricter selection criteria that might affect the clinical applicability or quality of their publications. [...]challenges and problems might arise from citation counts, such as ignoring potential citations in book chapters, considering self-citations, peers' preference to cite papers from the journal they submit their article, and preference to cite review articles or full-length articles.
