Submission received: 26 July 2022 / Accepted: 2 August 2022 / Published: 16 August 2022
The journal retracts the article “A Potential Role of Apelin-13 against Hepatic Injury and Metabolic Disorders in Preeclampsia Induced by L-NAME. Coatings 2021, 11, 391” [1].
The article was published solely as the result of a compromised peer review process. This is a clear violation of journal policy.
Following additional review of the published paper by the Editorial Board and journal, further technical issues and scientific concerns were expressed regarding the reliability of the article including, but not limited to, the quality of the analysis performed and the lack of evidential basis for the conclusions drawn. The authors were asked to respond and were unable to do so satisfactorily.
The Editorial Office (and Editor-in-Chief) take incidents of peer review interference very seriously and have a zero-tolerance policy towards such actions.
The article is therefore retracted.
This retraction was approved by the Editor-in-Chief of the journal, Dr. Alessandro Lavacchi.
The authors did not agree to this retraction.
