The primary aim of AIC is to provide scholars and readers from various fields of artificial intelligence in cancer with a platform for publishing high-quality clinical, basic, and translational research achievements. In order to ensure the quality, fairness, and transparency of publication, AIC has implemented a variety of measures, as follows: 

1 Academic norms and ethical requirements. Adherence to both academic norms and ethical requirements is closely related to peer review and first-decision making for the manuscript. Authors are recommended to prepare their articles according to the appropriate international publication recommendations, including the STROBE Statement, CONSORT 2010 Statement, PRISMA 2009 Checklist, and CARE Checklist – 2016: Information for writing a case report. For all articles involving human studies, organ transplantations, and/or animal experiments, before their acceptance, author(s) must provide the related formal ethics documents that were reviewed and approved by their local ethical review committee.

2 Peer-review process. Articles published in AIC must undergo rigorous external, single-blind peer review. For the full peer-review process, please visit: https://www.wjgnet.com/bpg/gerinfo/241.

3 Designation of co-first authors and/or co-corresponding authors. Designation of co-first authors and/or co-corresponding authors is permitted. For the policy of allowing co-first authors and co-corresponding authors who made equal contribution to a manuscript, please visit: https://www.wjgnet.com/bpg/GerInfo/310.

4 Publication of innovative original articles. AIC's acceptance of a manuscript for publication is based on its novelty, innovativeness, data accuracy, image reliability, clear language expression, and ethical requirements. 

5 Disclosure of documents related to the article. The peer review report, author response to the peer review report, biostatistics review certificate, copyright license agreement, institutional ethics committee approval document, informed consent document(s), conflict-of-interest statement, CrossCheck detection report, corresponding author(s) personal ORCID number(s), funding information, language editing certificate, and other relevant documents will be published online along with the article to allow for an open and transparent publishing process. 

The AIC is now abstracted and indexed in Reference Citation Analysis, China Science and Technology Journal Database.
