Publisher

iEditore is a young, independent, and innovative publishing house founded by professionals from the healthcare field and driven by a shared commitment to advancing biomedical, nursing, and healthcare science.

iEditore is the publisher of the Journal of Nursing in Infection Prevention and Control (JNIPC), the official publication of the ANIPIO Scientific Society.

JNIPC is owned by ANIPIO and is published through the iEditore Journals infrastructure. iEditore provides the publishing, technical, production, metadata, digital-preservation, and editorial-support services required for the development and dissemination of the Journal.

Our aim is to expand the possibilities of scientific publishing by making research knowledge accessible, visible, citable, and reusable. Through open access, digital publishing, permanent identifiers, structured metadata, and long-term preservation, we support the responsible circulation of scientific evidence across professional, academic, and international communities.

Our publishing philosophy extends beyond the simple dissemination of information. We are committed to developing transparent, inclusive, interdisciplinary, and ethically responsible publishing environments in which scientific quality, methodological rigor, diversity of perspectives, and editorial accountability are protected.

Our Vision: Science and Knowledge for All

iEditore was established with a clear vision: to make biomedical, nursing, and healthcare knowledge accessible to the widest possible audience.

We believe that access to reliable scientific information should not depend solely on economic, institutional, or geographical barriers. For this reason, we support open-access publishing models that allow readers to access scientific content freely and immediately.

During the initial launch phase of JNIPC, authors are not charged article processing, submission, or publication fees. Any future introduction of publication charges may occur only following a formal agreement between ANIPIO and iEditore and will be communicated transparently.

Innovation as a Driver of Scientific Communication

Innovation is central to our publishing activity. We do not limit our work to the production of traditional journal articles, but continuously develop digital workflows and publishing services that improve the submission, peer-review, production, dissemination, indexing, and preservation of scientific content.

Through the use of Open Journal Systems, structured metadata, Digital Object Identifiers, digital-preservation infrastructures, and international scholarly communication standards, iEditore supports journals in building reliable and sustainable publishing processes.

Every editorial project is developed according to its scientific identity, disciplinary community, strategic objectives, and institutional requirements. For JNIPC, this means creating an international publishing environment specifically dedicated to nursing leadership, research, education, and professional practice in infection prevention and control.

Inclusion and Diversity

At iEditore, we recognize that scientific progress is strengthened by the participation of individuals with different professional, disciplinary, cultural, geographical, and methodological perspectives.

We promote inclusive scholarly communication and encourage the participation of researchers, nurses, infection prevention specialists, clinicians, educators, healthcare managers, and other professionals involved in infectious risk management.

Editorial evaluation must be based on scientific quality, originality, methodological appropriateness, ethical compliance, and relevance to the Journal’s aims and scope, without discrimination based on personal, professional, institutional, cultural, geographical, or social characteristics.

Editorial Independence and Scientific Responsibility

Editorial independence is an essential principle of the publishing relationship between JNIPC, ANIPIO, and iEditore.

The scientific and editorial evaluation of manuscripts is overseen by the Editor-in-Chief and the designated Editors. Decisions concerning peer review, revision, acceptance, and rejection are based on scientific quality, methodological rigor, originality, ethical compliance, and relevance to infection prevention and control.

ANIPIO, as the owner of the Journal, defines its scientific identity, appoints its scientific leadership, and supports its strategic development. These institutional responsibilities do not permit interference in the independent evaluation of individual manuscripts.

iEditore provides publishing, technical, production, preservation, and editorial-support services. The Publisher may intervene where necessary to ensure compliance with applicable law, copyright, privacy, publication ethics, research integrity, and the editorial standards governing the Journal.

Sponsors, commercial organizations, institutional partners, funding bodies, and other external parties must not influence reviewer selection, peer-review reports, editorial evaluation, or decisions concerning the acceptance or rejection of manuscripts.

Interdisciplinarity and Professional Collaboration

Infection prevention and control requires collaboration across professions, organizations, care settings, and scientific disciplines.

iEditore supports the interdisciplinary mission of JNIPC while preserving the Journal’s central focus on nursing knowledge, professional responsibility, and specialist expertise in infectious risk prevention.

JNIPC provides a platform for dialogue among nurses, infection prevention and control professionals, epidemiologists, microbiologists, physicians, pharmacists, public-health specialists, educators, researchers, healthcare managers, and policymakers.

This exchange of knowledge supports the development of safer healthcare systems, stronger professional competencies, effective antimicrobial stewardship, improved surveillance, and evidence-based infection prevention practices.

Quality, Integrity, and Transparency

iEditore is committed to publishing practices that protect the integrity, reliability, and transparency of the scholarly record.

JNIPC applies an initial editorial screening and a double-blind peer-review process conducted by independent experts. Manuscripts may also undergo similarity screening, technical validation, ethical checks, and verification of declarations relating to authorship, funding, conflicts of interest, ethical approval, institutional authorization, and research data.

Published articles are assigned permanent identifiers and accompanied by structured metadata to support citation, indexing, discoverability, archiving, and long-term access.

Corrections, expressions of concern, retractions, and other post-publication notices are managed transparently when necessary to protect the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record.

Open Access and Long-Term Preservation

JNIPC publishes its scientific content in open access. Articles are made freely and permanently available online without subscription or pay-per-view barriers.

Authors retain copyright in their work, and articles are normally published under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Licence (CC BY 4.0) .

iEditore supports the long-term preservation of published content through its publishing infrastructure, DOI and metadata registration, legal-deposit procedures, repository permissions, and recognized digital-preservation services, including the PKP Preservation Network where applicable.

Our Mission in Scientific Publishing

Our mission is to contribute to a publishing environment in which scientific knowledge is accessible, reliable, ethically produced, professionally evaluated, and capable of generating meaningful improvements in healthcare.

Through JNIPC, iEditore and ANIPIO aim to develop an authoritative international platform for the dissemination of nursing research and professional knowledge in infection prevention and control.

The Journal seeks to strengthen the connection between scientific evidence and clinical practice, support the professional development of infection prevention specialists, promote interdisciplinary collaboration, and contribute to safer, more effective, and more sustainable healthcare systems.
