After conducting our own investigation, Cureus has made the decision to formally retract this article.
A key condition of article submission is that authors must explicitly declare that their work is original and has not appeared in publication elsewhere. Re-use of any data must be appropriately cited. As such this article represents a severe abuse of the scientific publishing system. The Cureus Journal of Medical Science takes a very strong view on this matter and we apologize that this was not detected during the submission process.
