Editorial
Duplicate publication, redundant publication, and disclosure of closely related publications
| The first 150 words of the full text of this article appear below. |
We have recently become aware of two cases of publication of
closely related data in papers submitted concurrently to
Thorax and to another journal, without
disclosure of the existence of the related paper. One of these concerns
papers by Girault et al1 2 and
relates to a study of two forms of assisted ventilation in which the
data published in Thorax1
represent part of a study also published in
Chest.2 In the review process
of the Thorax paper, which dealt with
characteristics of assist control ventilation in patients with COPD,
the associate editor and external reviewers all commented on the fact
that data comparing assist control ventilation with pressure support
ventilation would enhance the paper, and this comment was forwarded
with other feedback to the authors. The authors duly responded with a
revised manuscript which did not include pressure support ventilation
data, and did not disclose either in the manuscript
