Ownership and Management

Ownership and Management

The Journal of Bone and Soft Tissue Surgery (JBSS) is owned and published by the Pakistan Knee Hip Society (PKHS), a professional body committed to advancing education, research, and clinical practice in the field of orthopedic surgery. As the publishing authority, PKHS provides the financial and administrative support necessary for the production and dissemination of the journal.

Despite this ownership, the editorial independence of JBSS is fully respected and protected. All editorial decisions, including manuscript selection, peer review, and acceptance or rejection of articles, are made solely by the journal’s editorial team. Neither PKHS nor any external organization has influence over the editorial content, ensuring that the journal maintains objectivity, fairness, and academic integrity.

The editorial operations of JBSS are managed by a team of highly qualified editors with expertise in orthopedics, musculoskeletal sciences, and medical publishing. These editors are responsible for overseeing the peer-review process, upholding ethical publishing practices, and ensuring that all published material meets the highest standards of scientific rigor and clinical relevance.

Supporting the editors is an international advisory board composed of distinguished clinicians, researchers, and academics from around the world. The advisory board provides strategic guidance, contributes to the development of editorial policies, and ensures that the journal remains aligned with international best practices in scholarly publishing.

Through this model of ownership and management, JBSS guarantees a balance between institutional support and editorial independence, thereby fostering a trusted platform for the dissemination of high-quality orthopedic research.
