Description
The editors of Scientific Reports issued a 2026 retraction of an article by Qasem M. Tawhari and co-authors that modelled breast cancer drugs mathematically, using graph indices to estimate physical properties. The retraction notice explains why the journal lost confidence in the work.
After publication, readers raised concerns about references the article used to support its claims on cancer care and on what the drug daunorubicin does in the body. The editors could not verify the sources behind references 31 to 35 and 37 to 43, and on that basis withdrew the article. The notice adds that the authors did not respond to the editors' correspondence about the retraction.
