The Editors of this journal have published this Expression of Concern to alert readers that doubts, which appear to be founded, have been raised about whether the study was conducted retrospectively or prospectively. The authors provided explanations and supporting documents; however, the concerns could not be fully resolved.

Author D. Baldini does not agree with this EEoC. None of the other authors have responded to correspondence regarding this EEoC.
