      An update on this whole bizarre experience - the journal has now published a "typeset" version of the paper, which has deleted the lengthy personal attack There are quite a number of issues remaining, but this at least is goodhttps://twitter.com/GidMK/status/1376304539897237508 …

      The author has now included a slightly odd statement in the appendices. It's worth remembering that the original appendix contained a number of factually inaccurate statements about myself and co-authorspic.twitter.com/t9Tuun3cMF

          I would also suggest that hurting people's feelings is a bizarrely patronizing thing to say. Defamation of PhD students in published scientific work is about more than "feelings"

          Something else to note is that while the paper now no longer insultingly refers to other work as "cherry-picking"...pic.twitter.com/Pyj3W6qZlA

          ...however, it does still dismiss other scientific works with no real basis The words "cherry-picking" have been removed, but it's quite clear what is meant particularly given the contextpic.twitter.com/HcV2R8ov9K

          One really has to wonder what @wileyinresearch is doing at this point. The original paper is gone from the internet, although I'll post it up somewhere for people to download at some point for posterity

          Meanwhile, I am aware of numerous people (including myself) who have emailed @wileyinresearch and the European Journal of Clinical Investigation, and neither organization has responded in any way

          "the vilification that I (sic) have suffered". Peer-reviewed egotism.

          'Earnest effort'. Do you have that photo that was you trying to hide your identity handy again?

          This is simply “I’m sorry you took offense” but in academic-speak. There is no actual contrition.

          It's worth noting, also, that he's not entirely straightforward in saying that those two differ from the others, even in his not-pology
