RETRACTION: Y. Chen, L. Cui, H. Li, and A. Gao, “Abnormal Brain Structure in Atopic Dermatitis: Evidence From Mendelian Randomization Study,” Skin Research and Technology 29, no. 11 (2023): e13515, https://doi.org/10.1111/srt.13515.
The above article, published online on 16 November 2023 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between Skin Research and Technology; and John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
The article was accepted for publication following an insufficient peer review process that does not meet the standards of the journal's peer review policy. As a result, the findings reported in the article cannot be regarded as scientifically sound, particularly as the article does not adequately present the biological rationale necessary to support the valid application of Mendelian Randomization to the research question. Accordingly, the editorial team cannot vouch for the validity of the methodological approach employed, nor the reliability of the study's conclusions. Therefore, the journal and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. have made the decision to retract the article. The authors have been informed of the retraction decision and disagree with it.
