A small number of society journals published by Wiley do not offer Creative Commons licenses when an Article Publication Charge (APC) is paid to make the article open access. In these cases, the final, published article will be made open access on Wiley Online Library and, when appropriate, will be submitted to PubMed Central and PMC mirror sites.
Please note, in instances where the journal is not indexed by National Library of Medicine, PMC will only index papers that are funded by the NIH. The article may also be posted to other repositories.
At the time of deposit, hybrid open access articles include all changes made during peer review, copyediting, and publishing. But if there are any changes later, repositories and websites that host the article are responsible for incorporating any publisher-supplied amendments.
A link from the article on the website or repository to the definitive published version of the article on Wiley's platform is required. The article is protected by copyright but may be used as follows:
