Retraction Note: Lipids in Health and Disease (2019) 18:126
The Editors-in-Chief have retracted this article. After publication, concerns were raised regarding data similarities between the Control and AHE group results in Fig. 5; Tables 1, 2, 3 and 4 in this article and the corresponding values (Fig. 3; Tables 2, 3, 4 and 5) in the authors’ earlier study [1]. The treatment protocols and animal weight results are different between the two articles, suggesting that using the same Control and AHE group data in both studies would not have been appropriate.
The authors have not been able to share the underlying raw data to address these concerns. The Editors-in-Chief therefore no longer have confidence in the presented data.
Tayyaba Afsar and Suhail Razak disagree with this retraction. Ali Almajwal and Muhammad Rashid Khan did not respond to any correspondence from the Publisher about this retraction.
