Scholarena publishes a variety of scholarly article types, each with its own aims and requirements.
Most articles published in our journals fall into one of the following categories:
Research articles report novel, innovative analysis or experiments that add to existing knowledge on a particular topic. An original article emphasises a complete description of the research — including Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and Conclusion — supported by statistical results along with their significance. Research articles are among the most important sources in scholarly literature.
Review articles summarise information from the existing scientific literature. They gather significant studies, draw comparisons, identify limitations, and often highlight specific gaps or problems that point toward future research. Though reviews do not report original data, they give readers an overview of the current state of a topic without reading every published work in the field.
Three types of review articles:
Case reports discuss unique, unusual, or rare features of a disease, symptoms, diagnosis, pathogenesis, new therapeutic approaches, unexpected drug interactions, or follow-up of an individual patient. They often include literature review of comparable cases and provide essential information to physicians across specialties.
High-impact, interesting research outcomes often deserve to be shared quickly. Short communications are brief or rapid communications that present novel, significant material for rapid distribution — a concise format used to report improvements to existing methods, a new application, or a resource.
Editorials address diverse topics — relevant concerns, changes in science, editorial policy, or management matters. They are generally written by the Editorial Team or Editorial Board members.
