We publish health information, so being wrong has consequences. When we get something wrong we fix it in the open — the article gets corrected, the correction gets noted on it, and anything significant gets logged on this page permanently.

How we handle errors

Not every fix is the same, so we treat three levels differently.

Minor fixes

Typos, broken links, formatting. We fix these quietly and don't log them — nothing about the meaning has changed.

Clarifications

The original wasn't wrong, but it was vague enough to be misread. We update the wording and add a dated note at the bottom of the article explaining what we clarified.

Corrections and retractions

Something we published was factually wrong. We correct the article, add a dated correction note explaining what was wrong and what it now says, and log it on this page. If a claim was wrong enough that it shouldn't stand at all, we retract it and say so rather than deleting the page.

What we won't do

  • Silently edit. If a factual claim changes after publication, the article says so.
  • Delete our mistakes. Retracted claims stay visible and marked, because a deleted page just hides the error from the people who already read it.
  • Correct only when caught. If we find an error ourselves, it gets the same treatment as one a reader reports.

Report an error

If something we published looks wrong to you, please tell us. You don't need to be a clinician and you don't need to be certain.

Email info@mypap.com with the article title or link and what you think is inaccurate. If you have a source, include it. We'll look into it and reply — and if you're right, you'll see the correction on this page.

How we research, fact-check and review our content is set out in our Editorial Standard.
