Shelley M Wood, Managing editor, heartwire New York, NY Send response to journal: Re: Citation, please	Dear Sir, I would appreciate accurate accreditation in this important editorial. The "US website" mentioned is in fact an international news organization primarily targeting cardiologists, with journalists reporting from the UK, US, Canada, and Europe. The text of this editorial could be amended to read: "When theheart.org, a cardiology news website, publicised Wilmshurst’s criticisms, NMT instituted libel proceedings." Please also add the appropriate citation for this particular article: S Wood. Co-PI of MIST trial alleges data mismanagement, misinformation . theheart.org.
