This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (https://www.elsevier.com/about/policies/article-withdrawal). The Editor-in-Chief has decided to retract this article. A reader alerted the Editors to similarities between this trial and a different trial reported in the journal Climacteric : Etrusco A, D'Amato A, Agrifoglio V, Chiantera V, Russo G, D'Augè TG, Monti M, Riemma G, Laganà AS, Giannini A. Rapid and random-start endometrial preparation before outpatient hysteroscopic polypectomy in patients of perimenopausal age. Climacteric. 2024 Dec;27(6):561-567. doi: 10.1080/13697137.2024.2404574. Epub 2024 Sep 27. PMID: 39329272. The two studies recruited over the same time period in the same centre, and there is evidence of data copying between them. The corresponding author cooperated with the investigation by supplying original data from both trials. Both sets of data showed evidence of fabrication. The EJOG Editors are therefore retracting this paper. The authors disagree with the retraction and dispute the grounds for it. The Editor of Climacteric has been informed.

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the inflammatory responses of two cordless gingival retraction systems by assessing the levels of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF). The objectives were to measure IL-1β and TNF-α levels before and after retraction using kaolin-based and polyvinyl acetate-based cordless gingival retraction materials at baseline, 1 h, and 24 h, and to compare the inflammatory profiles of these materials.
Materials And Methods: This in-vivo comparative study used a split-mouth design, with each of the 10 enrolled patients serving as their own control by receiving both kaolin-based paste (Traxodent®, Premier Dental Products, Plymouth Meeting, PA, USA) and polyvinyl acetate-based strip (Merocel®, Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) on different endodontically treated teeth requiring full-coverage crowns, thereby minimizing interindividual variability.

The integrin family of extracellular matrix (ECM) adhesion receptors plays a central role in platelet function, including adhesion and aggregation. In resting platelets, integrins exist in a low-affinity state for their ligands, and are activated upon ligand binding to the extracellular domain or binding of cytoplasmic proteins such as talin to the intracellular β-tail. Talin function is regulated through autoinhibition, which reduces its integrin-activating function.
