      Biomedical scientists! Have you ever publicly posted reviews of a manuscript?

      Re: "Not that this is scientific, but wanted to frame this issue:" Sort of cowardly to hide this from whom you're tweeting about. But I guess I shouldn't be surprised coming from an @TheEliKlein fan. 🙂 Finally finished misrepresenting?https://twitter.com/AtomsksSanakan/status/1439088987918979074 …

      I know: - contents of the article is garbage, + the sort of thing competent peer review rejects - the authors didn't post the reviews (as far as I know) - they use pre-print to evade bad reviews - you misrepresented the tweet - the tweet is a follow-up: https://twitter.com/AtomsksSanakan/status/1439088138790580226 … pic.twitter.com/foqOCOCDaS

      Maybe, @AngryCardio, you should have included the context about posting a garbage article on a pre-print server after it was rejected 3 times, with distortions that competent peer review would have easily caught. That too inconvenient for you to mention? https://twitter.com/GidMK/status/1438298708634972160 …pic.twitter.com/KBCvywbSz5

      No sweat—you were brought in late. Some folks are complaining about the recent COVID vaccine myocarditis preprint because is was apparently rejected 3 times & reviewed were not posted. I said I never heard of posting manuscript reviews; you were used as an example of it.

      Not posting the reviews depends on context - not responding to the reviews is weirder. The question to me is whether the authors took the comments on board or if the posted preprint is mostly unchanged because that would be less than ideal

          If I'm really honest, I think open review is usually the best way to go and there's no real reason the authors could not include the reviews and their responses as a supplementary on medrxiv. That would completely remove any controversy 🤷‍♂️

          As you well know, facts & information do little to remove controversy. 😏 That said, the preprint can be judged on its own merits. I could care less what some other “reviewers” thought of it.

          No way to know. All this started when a professor of medicine & surgery poo-poo’ed the preprint because “it was rejected 3 times”. I said rejections alone don’t reflect poor quality, and you can judge for yourself.

          Someone else complained that the manuscript reviews were not posted for all to see, proving that the preprint was posted to “get around” poor reviews. I said I had never heard of “posting reviews” to manuscripts. And here we are.
