Article retraction practice

In 2004, The Annals of Thoracic Surgery published a study comparing two heart drugs. In January 2011, the journal retracted the study. The journal's editor-in-chief, L. Henry Edmunds, was contacted by Retraction Watch to get details about the cause of the retraction. Edmunds replied that journalists and bloggers need not discuss article retraction and that it was sufficient for the public to know that the article had been retracted. Edmunds went on to say that the reasons why a journal might retract an article are personal in the same way that the reasons for a marital divorce are.[1]

gollark: I can see all kinds of neat stuff, like the various bots spamming my website with stuff which looks like exploits in poorly written PHP applications (and some `/cgi-bin/ViewLog.asp` thing), webcrawlers adding osmarks.tk to search engines, actual users (somehow), and people crawling my site by IP.
gollark: You can't actually access osmarks.tk through it, it's HTTPS-only.
