Erratum: High-dose colforsin daropate increases diaphragmatic contractility in dogs (Canadian Journal of Anesthesia (2002) 49 (877-879) DOI 10.1007/BF03017425)

摘要

Further to the Expression of Concern posted online on February 15th, 2013, it is with considerable regret that the Canadian Journal of Anesthesia hereby retracts the above-cited article by Dr. Yoshitaka Fujii as a result of: 1) overwhelming evidence of fabrication relating to the fact that the distributions of many variables reported by Dr. Fujii in these studies are exceedingly unlikely;1'2 and 2) the inability of Dr. Fujii's institution to attest to the integrity of the study and/or the data conducted under its auspices, as set out in the Joint Editors-in-Chief Request for Determination of April 9th, 2012. We extend our sincere appreciation to University of Tsukuba Institute of Clinical Medicine for their review of the status of Dr. Fujii's research and to the investigating committee for their review of his research findings.
