Abstract
ABSTRACT: Medical Science Monitor is retracting the following publication on the basis of duplicated published content. 1) Kubaszewski Ł, Zioła-Frankowska A, Frankowski M, Rogala P, Gasik Z, Kaczmarczyk J, Nowakowski A, Dabrowski M, Labedz W, Miękisiak G, Gasik R. Comparison of trace element concentration in bone and intervertebral disc tissue by atomic absorption spectrometry techniques. J Orthop Surg Res. 2014 Oct 25;9: 99. doi: 10.1186/s13018-014-0099-y. PMID: 25342441; PMCID: PMC4220064. 2) Kubaszewski Ł, Zioła-Frankowska A, Frankowski M, Nowakowski A, Czabak-Garbacz R, Kaczmarczyk J, Gasik R. Atomic absorption spectrometry analysis of trace elements in degenerated intervertebral disc tissue. Med Sci Monit. 2014 Nov 4;20: 2157-64. doi: 10.12659/MSM.890654. PMID: 25366266; PMCID: PMC4301216. 3) Nowakowski A, Kubaszewski Ł, Frankowski M, Wilk-Frańczuk M, Zioła-Frankowska A, Czabak-Garbacz R, Kaczmarczyk J, Gasik R. Analysis of trace element in intervertebral disc by Atomic Absorption Spectrometry techniques in degenerative disc disease in the Polish population. Ann Agric Environ Med. 2015;22(2): 362-7. doi: 10.5604/12321966.1152096. PMID: 26094540. We have reviewed the content of all three similar publications. We note that Medical Science Monitor was the second to publish this study, in November 2014. At that time, the Corresponding Author gave no declaration of submitting this study to any other journal, nor of previously publishing this study.
