The Medical Science Journal for Advance Research recognizes the importance of the integrity and completeness of the scholarly record to researchers and librarians and attaches the highest importance to maintaining trust in the authority of its electronic archive.

It is a general principle of scholarly communication that the editor of a learned journal is solely and independently responsible for deciding which articles submitted to the journal shall be published.

In making this decision, the editor is guided by the policies of the journal's editorial board and constrained by applicable legal requirements concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.

Very occasionally, circumstances may arise where an article has been published that must later be retracted or even removed. Such actions must not be undertaken lightly and can only occur under exceptional circumstances.

Article withdrawal is used for Articles in Press that represent early versions of articles and sometimes contain errors, or may have been accidentally submitted twice.

Occasionally, articles may involve infringements of professional or ethical codes, such as:

Article retraction may be applied in cases involving professional or ethical infringements, including multiple submission, fraudulent authorship claims, plagiarism, fraudulent use of data, or significant errors in submission or publication.

In a minimal number of cases, it may be necessary to remove an article from the online database.

In cases where an article, if acted upon, might pose a severe health risk, the authors of the original article may wish to retract the flawed original and replace it with a corrected version.
