Abstract: |
The Asia Pacific Association of Medical Journal Editors (APAME) issued the Sydney declaration on predatory or pseudo journals and publishers at their annual meeting in 2024. Predatory journals are defined as those that charge publication fees without providing robust peer review and editorial services. These journals can have a negative impact on clinical practice, health, and careers. The declaration calls for member states, governments, and stakeholders to implement procedures for identifying and dealing with predatory journals and publishers. It also emphasizes the commitment of APAME to educate and empower editors, authors, and publishers to avoid engaging in predatory practices. [Extracted from the article] |
