My editorial paper entitled, "No raw data, no science: another possible source of the reproducibility crisis". When I feel the results are too beautiful, I requested raw data before sending it out for review. 40 out of 41 did not send me the right data.

21 of them were just withdrawn without providing raw data. 19 of them were rejected due to insufficient raw data (ex. just one sample per group provided) and/or to mismatches between raw data and the results shown. Mismatches are mostly huge, not subtle.
14 out of those 40 that were withdrawn or rejected were published in other journals (impact factor from 2.2 to 4.7; mean: 3.37). 12 journals had a policy requiring or encouraging raw data sharing upon request and so I requested raw data. None out of 12 gave me what I requested.
