Corrections

Last updated April 21, 2026

Clinical Nutrition Report corrects factual errors visibly. This page documents our corrections policy and is the public log of every correction we have issued since the publication launched in September 2025.

Corrections policy

When a factual error in published content is brought to our attention — by a reader, by a contributor, by an external researcher, or through internal review — we follow this process:

1. Verification. The reported error is verified against primary sources by the contributor responsible for the original content and, separately, by a second contributor with subject-matter authority. Verification is logged with timestamps and the names of the verifying contributors.
2. Correction within 72 hours. Once an error is confirmed, the affected page is corrected within 72 hours. This is a hard target; pages with confirmed factual errors are not allowed to remain unrevised in the public site beyond this window.
3. Visible correction notice. The corrected page carries a visible correction notice at the top of the page, dated, describing what was wrong, what is now correct, and how the error came to our attention. We do not silently edit. We do not memory-hole prior versions.
4. Log entry. Every correction is logged on this page (below). The log is permanent; corrections are not removed from the log when the underlying page is later revised again.
5. Re-review trigger. A confirmed material error in a piece triggers an immediate re-review of related pieces by the same author and on the same subject matter, in case the error reflects a systematic misunderstanding.

What counts as a correction

We distinguish between corrections, clarifications, and updates:

• Correction: A factual error in the original publication. The original was wrong; we are fixing it. Corrections are logged on this page.
• Clarification: Original content was technically accurate but susceptible to misinterpretation. We rewrite for clarity but do not log on this page (we log in the update log).
• Update: The underlying world changed (a vendor adjusted pricing, a new study was published). We update the content to reflect current state. Updates are logged in the update log, not the corrections page.

This distinction matters: an update log full of "updated pricing" entries is healthy editorial maintenance; a corrections page full of "we got this wrong" entries is a quality-control problem. We track them separately so the signal is clean.

How to report an error

Email corrections@clinicalnutritionreport.com with the URL of the affected page, a description of the error, and (where possible) a link to a primary source supporting your correction. We aim to acknowledge correction reports within 72 hours and to issue confirmed corrections within an additional 72 hours. Unconfirmed reports are kept open until verification is complete.

Anonymous correction reports are accepted but harder to verify. If you provide a reachable email, we will follow up to confirm the correction is in place.

Corrections log

Status: 0 corrections issued.

The publication launched in September 2025. As of April 21, 2026, we have not issued any corrections. We expect this to change. When the first correction is issued, it will appear here with the date, the affected URL, the nature of the error, the corrected content, and the verifying contributor.

The empty state of this page should not be read as a claim that we are perfect. It reflects the brief tenure of the publication and the volume of long-form pieces we have published to date. We will issue corrections; we expect to; and when we do, they will appear on this page promptly.

Editorial corrections vs. retractions

Most corrections are editorial: a fact was wrong, a number was transposed, a citation pointed to the wrong paper. We fix the page and note it here.

Retractions are different and rare. A retraction occurs when a piece's underlying argument is so compromised that simple correction is not sufficient — for example, if the foundational claim of a piece relies on a paper that was later retracted by its journal. Retracted pieces remain at their original URL with a clear notice of retraction; we do not delete them, because deletion makes prior reader exposure invisible. Retracted pieces also appear in this log, marked as such.

As of April 21, 2026, no pieces have been retracted.
