It is not an open-access publisher as far as I know, so in terms of my work analyzing OA publishers, it is out of my scope.
However, to answer your question, I think it is a bottom-tier publisher.

I don’t think Joseph Marreddy exists. I checked the address mentioned in the OMICS group – 731 Gull Ave,Foster City, CA on google – it is really surprising to see a residential building! Please educate me. Jeffy Kennison – is another person who requests articles. And there are 100s of conferences they organise and they send invitations to people of all ages. I think this needs to be stopped.

Yeah its quite a non-standard practice not to mention the affiliations of editors. Right now, i have a paper for which i am the first author which one of the senior member in my lab is proposing to publish in Clinical Epidemiology and Global Health. But even the editor’s address seems suspect. If one does a google search on the chief editor, no such address pops out. I am in a quandary right now.

I did submit to a questionable journal only once in my life, and one other time (long time ago) a very famous colleague of mine invited me to write a book chapter for a questionable publisher (I accepted, as I trusted him). So, be careful, be careful, and when you think your are OK, review again your decision to submit. OMICS email are simply appealing to the innocence and ego of researchers.

Dear Sir,

I would like to inform you that the paper was retracted from Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences:
Retraction

The article published by Ilankovic et al., 2013 [1] has been retracted by Editor-in-Chief because corresponding author published the similar paper in Psychiatria Danubina in 2014 [2]. An internal investigation has raised sufficient evidence of the originality in the first paper [1] and self plagiarism in the second paper [2]; as such, we retract this article from the literature on request by corresponding author and in accordance with guidelines and best editorial practices from the Committee on Publication Ethics. We apologize to our audience about this unfortunate situation.

Once article about original research can not be plagiat or autoplagiat from the author! Then all article about Penicilin are plagiats of A. Fleming work, all copies of music and literature of famous componist and writer are PLAGIAT!?

For meta analises are not the problems the simmilar articles, than the not original, constructed, virtual research articles without control studies! The problem is not in form, in text, than in falsificate of many research without real research, sample, data….!

“The American Psychological Association (2010) explains how plagiarism differs from self-plagiarism: “Whereas
plagiarism refers to the practice of claiming credit for the words, ideas, and concepts of others, self-plagiarism
refers to the practice of presenting one’s own previously published work as though it were new” (pg. 170).
As Roig (2006) suggests, self-plagiarism occurs “when authors reuse their own previously written work …..”
Then all texts from Albert Einstein about Theory of relatitivity and Isak Newtn thesis about gravitation are AUTO PLAGIATS (SELF-PLAGIARISM)!!? What a nonsence and stupidity! It is the new waz to stop and control the new original research, creativity and the new scientific ideas! First from editors, seciond from reviewers (thay make plagiats of original ideas for self), and now from new “head hunters” who moralistic try to block the new scientific ideas and sale only the profitable theories, drugs, and ordered and prepaid “researches”.

You can make a retrospective and find many never profeed and apllaid so called research, without any demanty of the editors or the authors, and without any control study (replication of experiments), what is the basis of real scientific work.

Reviewing is a task, sometimes you spend a lot of time to do it in a good manner, you have to resign some other things. It is not fair that OA journal takes a fee which usually is about 2000-3000 USD and does not pay people who do difficult job.

Hello,
Thank you for interest case.
If you are the head or director of department where this doctor is working, what actions you think have to be taken? Is just retracting plagiarised articles enough or the department has to take stronger actions considering that its reputation must be kept intact.

Actually, these metrics are assigned at the journal level, not at the publisher level.
