Retraction: Bone healing in critical-size defects treated with new bioactive glass/calcium sulfate: A histologic and histometric study in rat calvaria.

Abstract

Retraction: Nagata, M.J.H., Furlaneto, F.A.C., Moretti, A.J., Bouquot, J.E., Ahn, C.W., Messora, M.R., Fucini, S.E., Garcia, V.G. and Bosco, A.F. (2010), "Bone healing in critical-size defects treated with new bioactive glass/calcium sulfate: A histologic and histometric study in rat calvaria." J. Biomed. Mater. Res., 95B: 269-275. https://doi.org/10.1002/jbm.b.31710. The above article, published on October 8, 2010 in Wiley Online Library (www.wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor-in-Chief, Jeremy Gilbert, and Wiley Periodicals. The retraction has been agreed due to significant overlap with a previously published article from a similar group of authors (1), as indicated by a third party. An investigation by the publisher and the Editor-in-Chief confirmed the finding of significant overlap, which included the editor's observation that the cranium featured in Figure 1 of the article is identical to Figure 1 in (1), despite a difference in markings. It was agreed by the publisher and editor that the similarities between the two articles are too significant and that the article must be retracted. Maria J.H. Nagata, on behalf of all the co-authors, disagrees with the retraction. (1) Furlaneto, F.A.C., Nagata, M.J.H., Fucini, S.E., Deliberador, T.M., Okamoto, T. and Messora, M.R.
