When an academic paper promises you the world in the abstract, but fails to deliver in the body text
I regret to inform you that The Lancet will not be inviting you to revise and resubmit your paper, as it is a clear and obvious example of stractfishing.

Yet in your methods section, you explain that the sample was merely your two pet hampsters, and your cousin's geriatric poodle."
