Retraction Notice
This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief; RETRACTED: Evidence on vaping e-cigarettes as a risk factor for cancer: A systematic review - ScienceDirect
Following publication, substantial concerns were raised regarding the methodological rigor, accuracy, and overall scientific validity of the review. A detailed evaluation (including issues highlighted in the link posted above) identified multiple serious flaws that significantly compromise the reliability of the findings and conclusions.
These issues undermine the transparency, coherence, and scientific rigor of the review. The nature and extent of the errors prevent confidence in the validity of the analyses and conclusions. The Editor reached out to the authors for clarification; however, despite being given the opportunity to respond within the allotted timeframe, no reply was received. Consequently, the Editor-in-Chief has determined that the article does not meet the standards of scientific accuracy and reliability required for publication and has therefore been retracted.
