Honestly no - for a review article, I generally prefer journals with a better reputation. Not necessarily based on Impact Factor, but I'd much rather rely on a non-systematic review from JAMA, Lancet ID, JID, JAMA or PLOS Medicine. Or any one of a number of specialty or society level journals. I'd rather not rely on an article from an OA factory that's spammy enough for people to wonder if its a scam journal. For a systematic review or meta-analysis I might let it slide, but this was an opinion-y "Review of the Evidence". The somewhat wide ranging stuff the author writes on makes me a little skittish as well. I'm sorry to hear of your family's experience. I occasionally have my own issues with clinicians. |
