Abstract: We believe it is important to clarify that we are closely involved with journal publications of the American College of Rheumatology (ACR), as either Editors-in-Chief or Chair of the ACR's Committee on Journal Publications.Our involvement with the ACR journals comes with inherent conflicts of interest with the issue discussed.However, our involvement also positions us to anticipate what we foresee as potential unintended negative effects on academic publishing of the policy discussed herein.The dire consequences of this policy, if it takes effect without addressing the issues described below, necessitate expressing our opinion in a timely manner.Therefore, we provide our opinion without seeking approval of the Board of Directors of the ACR.The ACR continues to monitor and engage with stakeholders and policymakers around this policy change.
