 * I did a comparison of the blinded section to the abstract of the thesis - the only part available on the web - using WinMerge and punctuation-slicing, and the passages are almost identical but for exchanges of a handful of words, such as "Experimental studies" vs. "studies", "in" vs. "within", "results produced show" vs. "results that were produced showed". The changes are a sign of willful plagerism with intent to fool computational comparisons - unfortunately.  I'll work on removing the passage from the article+history shortly. --User:Ceyockey ( talk to me )
