看文献,发现一个研究,图片(FIG 1和FIG2)包括数据几乎完全一致的文章。
Menyhay作者在2006年发了Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2006; 27:23-27,研究Disinfection of Needleless Catheter Connectors nd Access Ports With Alcohol May Not Prevent Microbial Entry: he Promise of a Novel Antiseptic-Barrier Cap
在2008年时候又发表了相同的文献在Am J Infect Control 2008;36:S174.e1-S174.e5.Preventing central venous catheterassociated
bloodstream infections: evelopment of an antiseptic barrier cap or needleless connectors
,令人失望的是,所有的数据,图片几乎完全雷同。
Thank you for pointing this out. We will look into it immediately.

Letter two:
Dear Mr. Menyhay and Dr. Maki:
As you can see from the correspondence below, a colleague from Japan has identified an article that you published in both ICHE and AJIC, two years apart, that seem to be the same data with only some wording changes. As you know, this violates copyright laws. I contacted our publisher about what actions need to be taken and he suggested that first we contact you and request an explanation. I hope this reaches you in a timely fashion and await your response. Thanks.
