Journal Updates Undisclosed Reviewer Conflict Statement
JMIR Publications issued a corrigendum on Feb. 23, 2026, updating the conflict-of-interest statement for the article evaluating Claude 3 Opus after discovering an undisclosed affiliation between reviewer X Liu and authors at Sichuan University West China Hospital. The editor in chief reassessed the manuscript, concluded the review did not unduly influence acceptance, and the corrected article was resubmitted to PubMed, PubMed Central, and other repositories.
Key Points
- 1Identifies undisclosed reviewer-author affiliation between reviewer X Liu and Sichuan University West China Hospital
- 2Explains the editor-in-chief found reviews did not unduly influence acceptance decision after reassessment
- 3Requires updated conflict-of-interest statement and resubmission to PubMed, PubMed Central, and repositories
Scoring Rationale
Official editorial corrigendum provides verified disclosure and corrective action, but limited scope and negligible technical impact.
