The article “MicroRNA-199a regulates myocardial fibrosis in rats by targeting SFRP5”, by M.-H. Chen, J.-C. Liu, Y. Liu, Y.-C. Hu, X.-F. Cai, D.-C. Yin, published in Eur Rev Med Pharmacol Sci 2019; 23 (9): 3976-3983–DOI: 10.26355/eurrev_201905_17827–PMID: 31115026 has been retracted by the authors.

This paper has been questioned on PubPeer (https://pubpeer.com/publications/6417BECD38A43595A89D977A1CBDF8). In particular, concerns were raised about Figures 2C and 4C, potentially showing three panels with overlapping details of a single image.

The corresponding author states they used the wrong figure during manuscript drafting, which led to picture reuse. For this reason, the authors decided to withdraw the manuscript.

This article has been retracted. The Publisher apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause.
