This paper is a retraction notice for a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study that evaluated hysteroscopic-guided peri-tubal diluted bupivacaine infusion for endometriosis-associated chronic pelvic pain. The journal states that concerns were raised by a third party about the reproducibility of results reported in Tables 2 and 3, including the p-values in Table 3, and that the authors did not provide requested raw data. The editorial team and publisher concluded that the statistical results were incompatible with no adequate explanation, making the data and conclusions unreliable, and therefore retracted the article. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it is specifically the retraction of a trial focused on endometriosis-associated chronic pelvic pain.

Abstract

T. Shokeir, and S. Mousa, "A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind Study of Hysteroscopic-Guided Pertubal Diluted Bupivacaine Infusion For Endometriosis-Associated Chronic Pelvic Pain," International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics 130, no. 3 (2015): 219-222, 10.1016/j.ijgo.2015.03.043. The above article, published online on 03 June 2015 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor-in-Chief, Michael Geary; and John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
