Abstract

The article titled, "Pulmonary functions in pregnancy complicated with anemia", published in the International Journal of Research in Medical Sciences, Volume 2, Issue 4, 2014, Pages 1431-1437, DOI: 10.5455/2320-6012.ijrms20141135 is being retracted. It has been observed that the article contains several overlapping text sections from a previous published article titled, "Dynamic lung functions in pregnancy complicated with anemia" published in the printed version of Orissa Medical Journal, Volume 34 Issue 1, 2014, pages 103-110.
