Aim: Acceptance of ethical issues and social values of the research process and its practical consequences play an important role in organizing scientific work and considering its professional priorities. For this reason, because a vast majority of academic people are involved in the research process, we try to review these issues in this article: scientific misconduct in conducting research, data management, authorship and publication.
Method: In this study, using "scientific misconduct", "medical research" and "integrity", as search words, we found 8 related articles in pubmed, and 33 in google scholar
Discussion: On one hand, institutions involving research are responsible for providing an environment for integrity on research and programming and providing policies to effectively encounter with the evidence of scientific misconduct, and on the other hand, in scientific journals this definition is used for scientific misconduct: " Fabrication, falsification, and plagiarism or other practices that seriously deviate from those commonly accepted within the academic community for proposing, conducting, and reporting on research."
So, to ensure research integrity, prevention and control should be considered simultaneously. To prevent misconduct, researchers should be informed about the principles of maintaining the integrity on scientific research including recording and maintaining the data, acts about conducting research, responsible authorship, and conflict of interest.
It is also necessary to establish independent predefined institutions for investigating scientific misconduct which continuously maintain timely and thorough control on the recording of medical documents; supervise and monitor the quality control and data management
Conclusion: In our country, sufficient cultural and informative education to all levels of students and even university professors is valuable and it is necessary to reconsider the quality of publications for maintaining or improving university degrees for academic members. Presence of a powerful audit system, definitely, can reduce misconduct.
