Correction and retractions
Corrections, Retractions & Expressions of Concern (GPHHS)
GPHHS is committed to the integrity of the scholarly record. Where necessary, the journal may publish:
-
Correction: for honest errors that do not invalidate the main findings.
-
Retraction: for major errors or integrity concerns (e.g., fabrication, plagiarism, duplicate publication, unethical research).
-
Expression of Concern: when serious concerns are under investigation and a final outcome is not yet available.
How issues are reported
Concerns may be reported to the editorial office with supporting details (article title, DOI/URL, description of concern, evidence if available).
Editorial handling
The editorial office may contact authors, request clarifications or underlying data, consult reviewers/experts, and—when appropriate—publish a notice that is linked to the original article.
