AbstractThis article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (https://www.elsevier.com/about/our-business/policies/article-withdrawal). Injury was alerted to concerns regarding similarities of the data of this study to those published in the FixDIT UK trial.1 The investigators were invited to reply to the issues raised and were also asked to provide their original dataset available to the Editor-in-Chief. After several communications, the authors were not in a position to submit their original dataset to the Journal. Consequently, this article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief due to serious scientific and ethical concerns relating to the integrity of the data collected and included in this study. 1.
