In addition, the investigation found unattributed textual overlap within the introduction and discussion sections between this article and another article by different authors [1]. The editors have therefore decided to retract the article. The authors responded to our notice regarding the retraction and stated that textual overlap was unintentional and that the core data, methodology, and conclusions of the manuscript are original.
