摘要

有时,在论文发表后,可能会有人对研究、作者或背景过程提出严重关切。当主编(EiCs)有足够的证据证明论文存在严重的伦理问题或方法错误,可能会使论文的研究结果或伦理地位失效时,他们可以迅速撤回论文。然而,从收到报告到寻求解决方案之间,可能要经过数周、数月甚至数年的时间,因此需要提醒读者注意其潜在的不可靠性。在这种情况下,当前的替代性(但不是纠正性)文件采用编辑表达关切(EoC)的形式。然而,一个案例可能长期得不到解决,并附有 EoC,因此鼓励 EiC 尽快寻求解决,因为有些学术界人士可能需要引用和/或依赖该论文。令人奇怪的是,尽管 COPE 伦理学指南和 ICMJE 建议就 EoC 进行了全面讨论,但指导意见并不完全明确。本文试图改进指南,供编辑在面临是否发布 EoC 的两难选择时参考。

Better guidance is needed for editorial expressions of concern.

On occasion, following the publication of a paper, serious concerns might be raised, either about the study, the author(s), or background processes. When editors-in-chief (EiCs) have sufficient evidence in the case of a serious ethical offense or methodological errors that may invalidate the paper's findings or ethical standing, they can retract the paper rapidly. However, in the interim period between receiving a report and seeking a solution, several weeks, months or even years might pass, and readers need to be alerted to its potential unreliability. In such an instance, the current alternative (but not corrective) document takes the form of an editorial expression of concern (EoC). However, a case might be unresolved for a long time, with an EoC attached to it, so EiCs are encouraged to seek a resolution as promptly as possible because there are academics who might need to cite and/or rely on that paper. Curiously, even though a comprehensive debate is provided by COPE ethics guidelines and ICMJE recommendations, which refer to EoCs, guidance is not entirely clear. This paper makes an attempt to improve guidelines that editors could consider when faced with the dilemma of whether to issue an EoC, or not.
