Latest review

First review round: 22.6 weeks. Overall rating: 0 (very bad). Outcome: Rejected.

Motivation:
The manuscript remained 'with the editor' until January, when we wrote to find out what had happened. The editor then sent it to the reviewers. One of them revised the manuscript in half an hour without giving any reason for the rejection. The journal has no respect for the work of researchers. After 6 months, we expected at least some justifications that could improve our work.
