The Editor and Publisher of Cancer Management and Research wish to retract the published article. Concerns were raised following the authors request to replace graphs in Figure 7. The authors explained that calculation errors had been made during the analysis of the data and the resulting graphs were too similar. The authors provided some original data relating to Figure 7; however, it was not satisfactory and was not able to adequately verify the reported findings. 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The retracted article will remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it will be digitally watermarked on each page as “Retracted”.
