The Editorial Team of Circulation Journal has recently confirmed that the paper written by Hidenobu Okuyama et al, published in the August 2008 issue of the Journal (Circ J 2008; 72: 1296 - 1302), contains serious plagiarism from the paper by Kenichi Sugioka et al, published in the April 2002 issue of Stroke (Stroke 2002; 33: 2077 - 2081). Therefore, we have had to take the decision to retract the offending paper from Circulation Journal.
