Abstract

The article examines the detrimental effects of current publishing practices in medical research. It highlights the rise of predatory journals, which exploit the pay-to-publish model and undermine the quality and integrity of scientific literature. It critiques the commercialization of scientific publishing, which prioritizes profit over rigorous peer review and quality control, leading to a proliferation of low-quality and potentially misleading research.
