PEREZ ANAYA, Oskarly; MATTA-CAMACHO, Nubia E.; SARMIENTO-SALAZAR, Felipe e DUARTE-SANCHEZ, Lina C.. Publication and retraction in the era of SARS-Cov-2 and COVID-19. Rev. cuba. inf. cienc. salud [online]. 2023, vol.34 Epub 15-Maio-2023. ISSN 2307-2113.
The pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 accelerated the review and acceptance time of manuscripts, increased free access to published information on the subject, and popularized manuscript servers, preliminary versions, or preprints. That is why the objective of the study focused on evaluating the trends in the dynamics of retractions and determining existing patterns among the variables analyzed. A bibliometric analysis of articles associated with the pandemic was carried out. The trends and dynamics of 103 retracted manuscripts from December 2019 to June 2021 were evaluated. This evidenced an inspiring association with shorter review time, as well as with manuscripts published in Q1 and Q2 journals of Scimago Journal Rank. Likewise, the number of retracted articles decreased nine months after the declaration of a pandemic. Although the pandemic positively impacted on the process of disseminating scientific information, editorial policies should include control mechanisms that persuade authors about unethical behavior.
