Dear researchers , I have an issue with Revista Latinoamericana de Hipertension journal which published my paper with another authors names . I emailed the journal many times but there is no answer. How can I get my rights with my paper ? any suggestions ...
If journal editors don't respond, there is little that can be done. If the journal is published by a publishing house or by an institution, you can try to contact them. Or you can try to contact the members of the editorial board, if there is one. Otherwise, the only way left is the legal way, but this can be difficult and expensive.
Hello Saleen Abdulhadi
Does this journal send proofs? I am assuming if they did that you, obviously, did not get it wrong. If that is the case (that you got proofs), then it is really terrible! Are you the corresponding author as well? I am surprised, if you are, that they do not write back to you. If you are not, then I am sure you may need to get them to help contact the journal.
My only further suggestion is to wonder if the journal also offers a phone number for you to contact them. Otherwise, I share the ideas of Dr Wolfgang R. Dick that it is a it pessimistic and the legal path may be quite expensive.
