Problematic Reference in 10.1371/journal.pone.0346980


A potential hallucination reference is identified on the article [1].

In Reference 17, the authors attribute the publication to Palacio R et al. (2020), with the title "Comamonas kerstersii" and a DOI of 10.1093/clinids/9.1.124. However, the publication registered under this DOI was authored by Wauters G et al. in 2003, bearing the full title: Description of Comamonas aquatica comb. nov. and Comamonas kerstersii sp. nov. for two subgroups of Comamonas terrigena and emended description of Comamonas terrigena. These discrepancies confirm that the bibliographic information provided for Reference 17 in article [1] is inaccurate.
