This article [1] has been retracted at the request of the authors. Upon re-review of the data, we realized certain patients did not meet inclusion criteria. Per IRB guidelines, after removing three subjects who either had BMI > 65 or BMI < 40 (even though they had undergone bariatric surgery) and one control subject from the study, we re-analyzed the data set. The removal of these subjects from the analysis had no effect on our findings or conclusions. The journal’s Editor-in-Chief has invited the authors to re-publish their study with updated results.
All authors agree to this retraction.
