Our Commitment to Accuracy
Inside Embryo aims to publish accurate, responsible and understandable educational information.
Despite careful preparation, an article may occasionally contain an error, unclear statement, outdated reference, broken link or information that requires additional context.
Inside Embryo welcomes reasonable correction requests and treats meaningful accuracy concerns seriously.
Editorial Responsibility
The primary author and editorial lead is Manoj Kumar K, Embryologist.
He reviews reported concerns and determines whether a correction, clarification, update or removal is appropriate. An external professional may be consulted when a concern requires expertise beyond the author’s scope.
Types of Changes
Inside Embryo may classify changes as follows:
Minor Editorial Change
Minor changes may include:
- Spelling corrections
- Grammar improvements
- Formatting adjustments
- Broken-link replacement
- Typographical corrections
- Improvements that do not change the meaning
Minor changes may be made without a separate correction notice.
Clarification
A clarification may be added when the original statement is not necessarily incorrect but could be misunderstood.
Clarifications may include:
- Additional context
- Clearer definitions
- Improved limitations
- More precise terminology
- A distinction between laboratory and clinical practice
Substantive Correction
A substantive correction may be required when an error materially affects the reader’s understanding.
Examples include:
- An incorrect scientific statement
- A misinterpreted reference
- An inaccurate statistic
- Incorrect terminology
- A misleading comparison
- An unsupported medical or treatment-related statement
The article may include a correction note when appropriate.
Major Revision
A major revision may occur when:
- Professional guidance changes
- Important new evidence becomes available
- A substantial portion of the article requires rewriting
- The article’s conclusions need to be reconsidered
- The content no longer meets current editorial standards
The updated date should be changed when a major revision is completed.
Content Removal
Content may be removed when:
- It contains serious inaccuracies
- It creates an unreasonable risk of harm
- It infringes intellectual-property rights
- It breaches confidentiality or privacy
- It is no longer suitable for the platform
- Correction would not adequately resolve the problem
Where practical, the page may explain that the content has been withdrawn or replaced.
How Articles Are Reviewed
Content may be reviewed:
- On a scheduled basis
- When important guidance changes
- After receiving a credible correction request
- When a broken reference is identified
- Before inclusion in a paid educational product
- When new scientific evidence affects the article
- When the author becomes aware that the wording may be misleading
Not every article can be reviewed at the same frequency. Articles involving rapidly changing technology, clinical topics or professional guidance may require more frequent review.
Publication and Update Dates
Inside Embryo may display:
Published date: The date the content was first made publicly available.
Last updated date: The date a meaningful revision was completed.
Reviewed date: The date the content was checked, even when no major change was required.
A newly displayed date should not be added solely to make old content appear current.
How to Request a Correction
A correction request should include:
- The article title
- The article URL
- The exact sentence or section concerned
- An explanation of the suspected error
- Supporting sources, where available
- Your name and contact information, if you require a reply
General statements such as “this article is wrong” may not provide enough information for a proper review.
Assessment of Correction Requests
When reviewing a request, Inside Embryo may consider:
- The scientific credibility of the concern
- The quality and relevance of supporting sources
- Whether the issue changes the meaning of the article
- Whether the article already explains the limitation
- Whether professional guidance has changed
- Whether an independent expert opinion is required
- Whether the request is commercial, promotional or misleading
Submission of a request does not guarantee that a correction will be made.
Response to Readers
Inside Embryo will make a reasonable effort to acknowledge genuine correction requests and assess them appropriately.
Complex scientific questions may require additional review. Inside Embryo does not guarantee an individual response to every submission, particularly where messages are abusive, repetitive, promotional or unrelated.
No Retaliation for Good-Faith Corrections
Inside Embryo welcomes respectful, evidence-based correction requests. A reader will not be criticised for identifying a genuine error in good faith.
Abusive communication, threats, harassment or repeated spam may be ignored or blocked.
