Abstract

RETRACTION: G. Li, S. Liu, G. Tan, S. Wang, and J. Xie, “ Clinical Observation of Ultraviolet Therapy Combined with Autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma in the Treatment of Chronic Refractory Wounds,” International Wound Journal 21, no. 4 (2024): e14746, https://doi.org/10.1111/iwj.14746.

The above article, published online on 23 April 2024, in Wiley Online Library (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor in Chief, Professor Keith Harding; and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Following an investigation by the publisher, all parties have concluded that this article was accepted solely on the basis of a compromised peer review process. In addition, the investigation found there was significant unattributed textual overlap between this article and a previously-published article (Liao et al. 2020 [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jss.2019.09.019]). The editors have therefore decided to retract the article. The authors did not respond to our notice regarding the retraction.
