Peer review problems

In March 2015 the publisher placed the journal on hold after a pattern of "inappropriate and compromised peer review" was uncovered. Retraction Watch noted that the journal had retracted 16 articles in the preceding year that had been generated by the computer program SCIgen, as well as a further paper for plagiarism, although it was not stated whether these cases were related to the suspension.
