RESUMO
There are specific ethical requirements and review principles for submitting papers or reports in medical academic journals. Researchers often consult the ethics committee on the rationality of the ethical requirements of journals at the (to be) submission stage, or ask for assistance in solving the ethical review requirements of journals: applying for ethical review for the clinical research to which submitted papers or research reports. Based on the perspective of hospital ethics committee, this paper discussed the ethical review requirements of academic journals for clinical research papers or reports. Combined with the practice of handling clinical research authors’ demands, the current situation of applying for ethical review, common problems and cases, this paper put forward three suggestions: academic journals should concretize the ethical review requirements of submitted papers or reports; researchers should internalize "ethics first" in their hearts, and conduct research according to laws and regulations; ethics committee should give full play to positive guidance and services, and cooperate with clinical research management departments to strengthen and complete the supervision of clinical research. So as to provide ideas for further standardizing the publication of clinical research papers and reports.
