Literature reviews have summarised the number of retracted studies and guidelines have been developed to prevent this issue. However, available data are scarce in the nursing field. Learning from other experiences may be able to increase awareness of the issue and prevent avoidable errors. Therefore, the intent of this study was to map retracted articles in the nursing field by investigating the reasons for retractions in order to elicit strategies to prevent their occurrence.
A scoping review was performed by searching PubMed and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health (CINAHL) for articles published from 2001 to 2021. Quantitative primary and secondary studies related to the nursing field and written in English, with a "retracted article" message and/or presenting a retraction notice, have been included. The main reasons for retraction have been recorded, as well as the main features of the studies retracted.
Out of 274 studies, we detected 26 retractions, of which eight were literature reviews and seven were experimental studies. Editors were the most frequent party requiring retraction. The retracted studies originated from 11 countries and were mostly published (n = 19) in general nursing journals. Scientific misconduct was the main cause of retraction (n = 18), while the remaining retractions were due to other types of errors.
Most of the study retractions were issued by editors and originated mostly from high-scientific output countries. Scientific misconduct represented the principal cause of retraction; from these failures, educational strategies have been identified in order to prevent issues and to increase awareness among researchers and healthcare professionals.
文献综述总结了撤回研究的数量，并制定了预防这一问题的指南。然而，护理领域的可用数据仍然匮乏。从其他经验中学习可能有助于提高对这一问题的认识，并防止可避免的错误。因此，本研究的目的是通过调查撤回的原因来绘制护理领域撤回的文章，以引出预防这些错误发生的策略。
通过在 PubMed 和 Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health（CINAHL）中搜索 2001 年至 2021 年发表的文章，进行了范围综述。纳入了与护理领域相关的、以英语撰写的定量原始研究和二次研究，这些研究具有“撤回文章”信息和/或发表撤回通知。记录了撤回的主要原因以及撤回研究的主要特征。
在 274 项研究中，我们检测到 26 篇撤回的文章，其中 8 篇是文献综述，7 篇是实验研究。编辑是要求撤回的最常见方。撤回的研究来自 11 个国家，主要发表在普通护理期刊上（n=19）。科学不端行为是撤回的主要原因（n=18），而其余的撤回则是由于其他类型的错误。
大多数研究的撤回都是由编辑发出的，主要来自科学产出较高的国家。科学不端行为是撤回的主要原因；从这些失败中，已经确定了教育策略，以预防问题，并提高研究人员和医疗保健专业人员的意识。
