Note that Hayempour is now going by the name of "Ayden Jacob" (he claims it is for "marriage reasons", oddly enough), hasn't fixed any of his papers (although he changed their titles, and took some of them down from PubMedCentral) and is still plagiarizing on his new website.

I do a Google search on the name "Ayden Jacob" and if I missed the significance of Retraction Watch coming in at number one of the results ranking I would get the impression from the rest of the page that this is a young man with impressive achievements in cutting-edge medical research. Thank heavens for Retraction Watch!
