Kuwait has only 35,095 indexed publications, below the 100k floor — its rate is shown for completeness but is statistically unreliable (note the wide interval).
These figures count detected and reported plagiarism retractions, not total plagiarism. Coverage reflects English-language-indexed journals; a country with stronger oversight may record more, not necessarily commit more. See the methodology for the full caveats.
