Retraction

Withdrawal by Authors

The author is expected not to withdraw the submitted manuscript if the manuscript has been included in the editorial process (review, layout, etc.) because it is considered detrimental to the editorial team who have spent time and thought processing the article.

Retraction by Editors

Editors will consider retracting publications if:

  • there is clear evidence that the results of the activity cannot be valid due to falsification of data or calculation errors or analysis errors;
  • findings have previously been published elsewhere;
  • there are indications of plagiarism that can be proven;
  • there are ethical violations in the implementation of activities.
