Challenges in Identifying the Retracted Status of an Article.

This cross-sectional study examines publisher websites and bibliographic databases to check their accordance with industry standards for documenting retracted publications.

Systematic Reviews in Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation and Cellular Therapy: Considerations and Guidance from the American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy, European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, and Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research Late Effects and Quality of Life Working Committee.

Systematic reviews apply rigorous methodologies to address a prespecified, clearly formulated clinical research question. The conclusion that results is often cited to more robustly inform decision making by clinicians, third-party payers, and managed care organizations about the clinical question of interest. Although systematic reviews provide a rigorous standard, they may be infeasible when the task is to create general disease-focused guidelines comprising multiple clinical practice questions versus a single major clinical practice question.

Compiling Evidence for EVALI: A Scoping Review of In Vivo Pulmonary Effects After Inhaling Vitamin E or Vitamin E Acetate.

Background: Vitamin E acetate (VEA) has come under significant scrutiny due to its association with E-cigarette or vaping product use-associated lung injury (EVALI). Various theoretical mechanisms have been proposed for toxicity, including tocopherol (vitamin E)-mediated surfactant damage, recruitment of inflammation, and pyrolysis of acetate to the pulmonary irritant ketene.

Objective: Characterize studies in mammals evaluating inhaled VEA, vitamin E analogues, or pyrolyzed acetate that describe subsequent effects on the lung.

Assessment of Citations of the Retracted Article by Wakefield et al With Fraudulent Claims of an Association Between Vaccination and Autism.

Importance: The number of citations can be used to show the influence of an article or to measure the validity of a research study. The article by Wakefield et al that fraudulently reported an association between vaccination and autism continues to accumulate citations even after it was retracted.

Objectives: To examine the characteristics of citations from scholarly literature that reference the 1998 article by Wakefield et al and to investigate whether authors are accurately citing retracted references.

Advanced biomarkers of pediatric mild traumatic brain injury: Progress and perils.

There is growing public concern about neurodegenerative changes (e.g., Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy) that may occur chronically following clinically apparent and clinically silent (i.
