Desk Rejection: How to Avoid Being Hit by a Returning Boomerang
论文解释了什么是桌面拒稿（稿件因不符合期刊定位或质量不足而被编辑直接退回），并说明编辑团队会提供发展性反馈，以帮助作者改进文章，同时节省编辑和审稿人时间。
Manuscripts are desk rejected when they do not fit the mission of the journal or are too underdeveloped to benefit from the review process. In such cases, two members of the editorial team go through the manuscript and provide a developmental letter to author or authors to advance the article further. This helps free up the time of editors and reviewers to concentrate on the most promising manuscripts.
