Authors can review, change, and update their articles by posting new versions, which are added to the article history; however, individual versions, once published, cannot be changed or withdrawn and are permanently available on the Revista Alergia México website. Revista Alergia México participates in the CrossMark scheme, a multi-publisher initiative that has developed a standard way for readers to locate the current version of an article. By enforcing CrossMark's policies, Revista Alergia México commits to maintaining the content it publishes and alerting readers to changes when they occur.
By clicking on the CrossMark logo (at the top of each article in Revista Alergia México), you will get the current status of an article and direct you to the latest published version; it can also provide you with additional information, such as new peer review reports.
In order to maintain the integrity and integrity of the academic record, the following policies will apply when it is necessary to correct the published content; These policies take into account current best practices in academic libraries and publishing communities:
Correction of an Article
In traditional journals, where articles are peer-reviewed before publication, corrections (or errata) are published to alert readers to errors in the article that became apparent after the final article was published.
In contrast, Revista Alergia México articles undergo post-peer review publication and the publication is not "final" as new versions may be added at any stage. Any errors that come to light during the peer review process can be highlighted in the published peer review reports, which form part of the article. Authors may publish revised versions, and any errors found during or after peer review may be corrected by posting new versions. Fixes and changes relative to the previous version are always summarized in the "Changes" section at the beginning of a new version.
Article Retraction Policy
Retraction, as the action of withdrawing, reducing or renouncing something, expresses the power that assists the author of a work or article to express his desire to ignore or renounce what has been previously said or consigned and is manifested in a practical way, and in the possibility of the author, to make it known to his readers by the same means by which the article or work that he renounces was made known. The retraction is a personal fact, derived from the autonomy of the author's will and from his thought and reflection processes.
Procedure for withdrawal and retraction
For the cases of retraction and retraction under which it is intended to invalidate or annul, in whole or in part, what was previously said or included in any issue of the Magazine, as well as retract or renounce a work, article or opinion consigned , the author or third party with proven legal interests who intends to make use of this policy must send a written communication to the Editor of the Journal; in which, making use of his capacity as author or sending evidence of his legal interest for the request, as the case may be, he will present the arguments and provide the necessary evidence to request the retraction, specifying its scope. In cases of retraction, the author will send the retraction note that must be included to be submitted for consideration by the Editor and the Editorial Committee.
After the above, and once the documents sent have been verified ―or after verifying their authorship in the case of retraction―, within a period of no more than 10 business days, the Editor will proceed to present the case before the Editorial Committee. ; who will deliberate and decide by vote, under a simple majority (half plus one), on the request; if accepted, it will be processed within a period of no more than 30 business days.
There will be no appeal against the decision; however, the applicant or another person, with a legitimate interest in the subject, may again request the retraction or retraction, as the case may be, and provide or improve the evidence previously provided. Any member of the Editorial Committee may request and process the retraction procedure. In the case of retraction, only the authors or rights holders may make the request.
Once it has been decided on the origin of the retraction or retraction, as the case may be, it will be carried out in the next issue of the published Magazine; as long as it is still editorially possible; otherwise, it will be included in the next edition. In cases of retraction, the note provided by the author will be included.
Note expression of concern
In exceptional cases, Revista Alergia México may decide to publish an Expression of Concern, which is linked to the problematic article, if there are serious concerns about an article but no conclusive evidence can be obtained that unequivocally justifies a Retraction. This may include:
if there is inconclusive evidence of investigation or publication of misconduct
there is evidence that there are problems with the article, but the institution of the authors will not investigate the case an investigation into the alleged misconduct has not been impartial or conclusive
Procedure for duplication
For the duplication of texts, which consists of the possibility of copying or reproducing textually, one or more times, a content or literary work, in a new support (digital or any other format), the Journal accepts the following procedure general: all editorial material, in respect of which its duplication has been requested or determined, will be headed with a legend that clearly identifies its quality as a duplicate and that differentiates it from the original.
To carry out this type of reproduction, the applicant must fill out the internal duplication request form and send it to the magazine's email (revista@cmica.com.mx. The format must be filled out by the person responsible for the procedure, even when be the same magazine that determines its need.
Procedure for incorporation of errata
The errata, for the publications of the Magazine, must be understood as the usual method of editing and subsequent editing of any article, by means of which all the errors that have been detected in a copy of the magazine are corrected. For this procedure, it must be taken into account that, if only part of the article contains an error, this can be rectified later by means of an editorial note or an errata.
In the event that an author or any third party, including journal staff, discovers a serious error in the publication, he or she must communicate it in writing and accurately to the Editorial Committee in order to amend it through the "errata".
To carry out this type of correction to the editorial material, once the occurrence of the event has been determined and the way to solve it, the errata will be included in one of the initial pages of the next issue of the magazine; as long as it is still editorially possible; otherwise, it will be included in the next edition.
