Abstract
This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal ( https://www.elsevier.com/ locate/withdrawalpolicy ). This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief. In investigating concerns brought up regarding inappropriate citations within the article, the editor reached out to the authors for an explanation. Post-publication, the editor also discovered suspicious changes in authorship between the original submission and the revised version of this paper. In summary, two authors were removed from the paper (including the original First Author). Subsequently, the author’s names Kadda Hachem (New First Author and Corresponding Author), Maria Jade Catalan Opulencia, Walid Kamal Abdelbasset, Andrey Sevbitov, Oleg R.Kuzichkin, Abdullah Mohamed and Sahar Moazen Rad (New Corresponding Author) were all added to the revised paper without explanation and without the exceptional approval by the journal Editor, which is contrary to the journal policy on changes to authorship. The authors failed to provide a satisfactory explanation to the above points. Overall, the Editor feels that the findings of the manuscript cannot be relied upon, and the article needs to be retracted.
