Not published elsewhere. Patient consent obtained for case report and images to be published”.

Case

Retraction or correction?

17-30

A publisher received communication alleging that a published article in one of their journals contained large portions of text taken without attribution from another article. Upon review of these allegations, it was determined that a table in the article had been reproduced. In the table the authors did not put direct quoted material within quote marks or otherwise identify the quoted material as such. The table values in a column are identical to that in another paper.
