Retraction of: Haitham Torky, El-Sayed El-Desouky, Ibrahim Abo-Elmagd, Attia Mohamed, Ahmad Abdalhamid, Ashraf El-shahat, Sileem Ahmed Sileem, Mahmoud M. Tawfick, Ashraf Abo-Louz and Ahmed Hussein. Pre-operative tranexemic acid vs. etamsylate in reducing blood loss during elective cesarean section: randomized controlled trial. Journal of Perinatal Medicine 2020;49(3):353–356 (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1515/jpm-2020-0271).

The retraction became necessary because the statistics in the article are unfounded and obviously falsified, and because significant ethical concerns arose after publication. The editors and publisher sincerely regret the situation and wish to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
