Latest review

First review round: 10.9 weeks. Overall rating: 3 (good). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
I submitted my manuscript on March 25. On May 5th they asked me to send a graphical abstract. After I submitted that, the manuscript was sent for reviewers. So, I lost like 5 weeks. Support staff was helpful, but they couldn't do anything with the delay.
