Citation Integrity and Research Trust

JU participates in CrossMark version control and Crossref Similarity Check to protect the scholarly record and research integrity.

These services help readers access the most current version of each article and maintain originality standards during review.

Global Discovery Channels

Published articles are discoverable through major academic search and library systems that connect clinicians and researchers with ulcer evidence.

• Google Scholar for rapid academic discovery
• WorldCat for global library catalog visibility
• Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, CORE, and BASE through open metadata crawling

Visibility Timeline

After acceptance, metadata is deposited and sitemaps are updated to support fast discovery. Most platforms index new content within 24 to 48 hours of publication.

Indexing vs Discovery

Indexing provides persistent identifiers and citation tracking, while discovery channels help readers find your work. Both are essential for clinical impact and citation reach.

PubMed Note

Not all articles are indexed in PubMed. NIH funded articles that require deposit in PubMed Central become discoverable in PubMed once deposited.

Accuracy and Transparency

We only claim verifiable indexing and discovery services. Contact the editorial office with questions about specific platforms.

Metadata Quality

Accurate titles, abstracts, and references improve discovery. JU validates metadata and updates sitemaps to support search visibility. This helps indexing systems display correct citations and improves search click through for ulcer research.

Library Discovery

WorldCat listing supports institutional access and long term visibility across academic library networks worldwide. This supports long term archiving and institutional access planning for clinical teaching programs and resident education and training materials.

Open Metadata Crawling

Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, CORE, and BASE discover articles through open metadata. This broadens reach for clinicians and researchers searching ulcer evidence. These services improve visibility in academic profiles and literature mapping tools.

Author Profile Connections

Using ORCID IDs and consistent author names helps ensure your work is linked to researcher profiles and citation tracking tools.

Discovery Timeline Details

After acceptance, metadata is validated and deposited. Discovery services typically update within one to two days after publication.

Search Optimization

Strong titles, precise keywords, and clear abstracts improve search ranking and reader engagement across indexing and discovery platforms.

Indexing Questions

If you need confirmation about a specific service, contact the editorial office. We provide transparent responses based on verifiable records.

CrossMark Updates

CrossMark ensures readers access the most current version of your article if corrections are issued, protecting citation integrity.

Similarity Screening

Crossref Similarity Check supports originality screening during review and helps maintain trust in the ulcer research record.

PubMed Central Deposits

NIH funded articles that require deposit in PubMed Central become discoverable through PubMed after deposit. Authors should confirm funder requirements at submission.
