RETRACTED ARTICLE: An Ag(I)-pyridyl-triazole coordination polymer: treatment effect on HBV-associated glomerulonephritis via inhibiting inflammatory genes expression

Abstract

We, the Editors and Publisher of the journal Inorganic and Nano-Metal Chemistry, have retracted the following article: Ling-Hui Xiao & Xiao-Wen He. An Ag(I)-pyridyl-triazole coordination polymer: treatment effect on HBV-associated glomerulonephritis via inhibiting inflammatory genes expression, Inorganic and Nano-Metal Chemistry, 2020, vol 50: issue 5, 361–367, DOI: 10.1080/24701556.2020.1713161 Since publication, significant concerns have been raised about the integrity of the data and reported results in the article. When approached for an explanation, the authors did not provide their original data or any necessary supporting information. As verifying the validity of published work is core to the integrity of the scholarly record, we are therefore retracting the article. The authors do not agree with the retraction. 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 The retracted article will remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it will be digitally watermarked on each page as ‘Retracted’.
