This editorial by RN Clayton and others (4 September, p 588) was
substantially the same as a commentary by RN Clayton that had appeared
earlier in Clinical Endocrinology (1999;50:557-9). The
editors of both journals did know that this was so, but the authors and
the BMJ failed to make clear that the BMJ article was based on the one that had appeared in Clinical
Endocrinology and also failed to seek copyright permission. The
BMJ and the authors apologise.
