- Abstract
The article discusses the shift in the publishing model in the biomedical field, particularly in dentistry, where for-profit academic publishing has emerged. This has led to an increase in the number of journals with little relevance to dentistry hosting dental research in an effort to attract readership. These journals often have short processing times for manuscripts and lack proper ethical oversight. The authors express concerns about the impact of this trend on the quality and integrity of published research, as well as the potential influence of industry on scientific information. They emphasize the importance of scientific integrity, accountability, and thorough reviewing in the publishing process.
