Eleftheriadis N, Papaloukas C, Eleftheriadis D, Hatzitolios A, Ioannidou-Marathiotou I, Pistevou-Gompaki K. Int J Gen Med. 2009;2:63–66. The Editor and Publisher of the International Journal of General Medicine wish to retract the published article. Concerns were raised regarding the alleged duplication of images from Figure 1A, 1B, 1C, and 1D with the same images from Figure 3A, 3B, 3D, and 3E, respectively, from the article Ioannidou-Marathiotou et al, 2010 ‘Long term chemoradiotherapy-related dental and skeletal complications in a young female with nasopharyngeal carcinoma’ (https://doi.org/10.2147/IJGM.S10825). Both articles share common authors but describe different case reports. The authors did not respond to our queries and no explanation for the alleged image duplication was provided. The Editor requested to retract the article and the authors were notified of this. We have been informed in our decision-making by our policy on publishing ethics and integrity and the COPE guidelines on retractions. The retracted article will remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it will be digitally watermarked on each page as “Retracted”. |
