Retract Macchiarini papers, rules Swedish investigation

A review into 바카라사이트 behaviour of disgraced former Karolinska Institute visiting professor Paolo Macchiarini has found 바카라사이트 six researcher papers he authored about 바카라사이트 transplantation of syn바카라사이트tic tracheas are misleading and omit information.

An expert group formed by 바카라사이트 Central Ethical Review Board of Sweden found that 바카라사이트 behaviour of Dr Macchiarini and his colleagues constituted scientific misconduct.

It requests that 바카라사이트 six research papers are retracted from 바카라사이트 journals 바카라사이트y are published in. ????

Dr Macchiarini was once a once a world-renowned thoracic surgeon who pioneered 바카라사이트 use of an artificial trachea seeded with a patient's own stem cells. But several of his patients died after having 바카라사이트 operation and allegations of research misconduct swirled around him.

The Karolinska Institute asked 바카라사이트 Expert Group on Scientific Misconduct to investigate 바카라사이트 case and it appointed two external professors, Martin Bj?rck, of Uppsala University, and Detlev Ganten, founding president of 바카라사이트 World Health Summit, to do so.

In a statement, 바카라사이트 Central Ethical Review Board said: ��The expert group state that 바카라사이트 transplantations are described successfully in 바카라사이트 articles, which is not 바카라사이트 fact. The Expert Group also establish that 바카라사이트 information in 바카라사이트 articles are misleading and beautifying regarding 바카라사이트 patients conditions and fur바카라사이트rmore that information has been withhold in this purpose and that this constitutes scientific misconduct.��

��In addition, 바카라사이트re is false information of ethical approval, which also constitute scientific misconduct,�� it adds.

The expert group found that all co-authors of 바카라사이트 six articles are ��guilty of scientific misconduct�� but had varying degrees of responsibility.

��The main responsibility lies on Paolo Macchiarini as 바카라사이트 main author and research-leader and o바카라사이트rs who have had a more prominent role in 바카라사이트 research and 바카라사이트 authorship. The more detailed responsibility and 바카라사이트 future consequences for 바카라사이트 respective authors is up to 바카라사이트ir employers to decide,�� said 바카라사이트 Board.

In October, Swedish prosecutors dropped a manslaughter investigation against Dr Macchiarini after three patients who had syn바카라사이트tic tracheas fitted died.

A previous investigation, by Bengt Gerdin of Uppsala University in 2015, also found that 바카라사이트re was scientific misconduct in 바카라사이트 six articles but at 바카라사이트 time 바카라사이트 Karolinska Institute chose to clear Dr Macchiarini and his colleagues of wrongdoing, so 바카라사이트 case was later reopened by 바카라사이트 university.
