ABSTRACT
El trabajo editorial casi nunca es visible en la cadena de la transmisión del conocimiento; sin embargo, es una tarea ardua, exhaustiva y precisa, en la evaluación, selección, producción y distribución del material científico, además de su difusión y marketing. Es por ello que en los siguientes párrafos se explicará, de manera sencilla, cómo es que el saber científico se construye, difunde y crea un nuevo saber, gracias a las editoriales y sus profesionales. Todo esfuerzo creador en el área de la ciencia debe tener constancia mediante un escrito, por ende, el objetivo del trabajo fue resumir el proceso de la creación del artículo científico desde la recepción del manuscrito hasta su publicación. Para ello se utilizó el método de la revisión narrativa. El artículo científico, como procedimiento individual o gremial para la difusión del desarrollo e innovación, ha sido el más empleado para mostrar el conocimiento novedoso, conservar el más antiguo y lograr que la información llegue a sus destinatarios, los cuales no necesariamente son generadores del saber humano, pero sí difusores. La descripción, evaluación y divulgación de la ciencia (socialización de la ciencia) ha sido un aspecto esencial en el desarrollo tecno-científico, que cuenta con medios certificados (revistas científicas) para acreditar y validar el conocimiento que se ha generado, o está en proceso, en un campo determinado, período de tiempo y región específicos.
Editorial work is almost never visible in the knowledge transmission chain; however, it is an arduous, exhaustive and precise task, in evaluating, selecting, producing and distributing scientific material, as well as its dissemination and marketing. That is why the following paragraphs will explain, in a simple way, how scientific knowledge is built, disseminated and creates new knowledge, thanks to publishers and their professionals. Every creative effort in the area of science must be recorded in writing, therefore, the objective of the work was to summarize the process of creating the scientific article since the reception of the manuscript to its publication; to this end, the narrative review method was used. The scientific article, as an separate or union procedure for the dissemination of development and innovation, has been the most used to show new knowledge, to preserve the first and to ensure that the information reaches its recipients, who are not necessarily generators of human knowledge, but diffusers. The description, evaluation and dissemination of science (socialization of science) has been an essential aspect in the techno-scientific development, which has certified means (scientific journals) to accredit and validate the knowledge that has been generated, or it is in progress, in a certain field, a given period and a specific region.

Over the past few years, updated editorial policy statements of several associations have provided a platform for improving the quality of scientific research and publishing. The updates have particularly pointed to the need for following research reporting standards, authorship and contributorship regulations, implementing digital tools for the identification and crediting academic contributors, and moving towards optimal ethical open-access models. This article overviews some of the recent editorial policy statements of global editorial associations and reflects on the role of the regional counterparts in advancing scholarly publishing. One of the globally promoted documents is the Recommendations of the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE). Its latest versions contain statements on proper research reporting, reviewing, editing, and publishing. Points on ethical target journals and ‘predatory’ sources are also available. This year, in a move to update its editorial policy, the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) released the Core Practices, comprehensively reflecting on the major issues in publication ethics. Updated joint statements of medical writers associations are also available to implement transparent policy on contributorship in sponsor-supported research projects and related reports. Several suggestions are put forward to improve global editorial statements on online profiling, crediting, and referencing. It is also highlighted that knowledge and implementation of updated editorial guidance is essential for editors' good standing.
