Erratum Regarding “A Crystal Clear Diagnosis” (Am J Kidney Dis. 2013; 62:xxvi-xxix)
Erratum Regarding “A Crystal Clear Diagnosis” (Am J Kidney Dis. 2013; 62:xxvi-xxix) In the Quiz Page article entitled “A Crystal Clear Diagnosis” that appeared in the September 2013 issue of AJKD (MacEwen et al; volume 62, issue 3, pages xxvi-xxix), the name of one of the authors was spelled incorrectly. The name Anshul Desraj should have appeared as Anshul Deshraj.
Erratum Regarding “Differences Between Office and 24-Hour Blood Pressure Control in Hypertensive Patients With CKD: A 5,693-Patient Cross-sectional Analysis From Spain” (Am J Kidney Dis. 2013;62(2):285-294) In the Original Investigation entitled “Differences Between Office and 24-Hour Blood Pressure Control in Hypertensive Patients With CKD: A 5,693-Patient Cross-sectional Analysis From Spain” that appeared in the August 2013 issue of AJKD (Gorostidi et al, volume 62, issue 2, pages 285-294), there were numerical errors in some values listed in Tables 3 and 5. In Table 3, in the “Office BP” section, systolic BP , 130 row, the values shown are in fact for systolic BP $ 130. The correct number and percentage values for systolic BP , 130 in the CKD stages 2, 3, 4, and 5 subgroups are 45 (9.1%), 466 (12.0%), 37 (9.0%), and 20 (15.6%), respectively. In Table 5, in the “Underestimation (‘white-coat’ hypertension)” section, the odds ratio and 95% confidence interval for albuminuria (per 1-mg/g greater ACR) should have been 0.999 (0.999-0.999), not 1.001 (1.0011.002). Similarly, for target-organ damage (yes vs no), the odds ratio and 95% confidence interval should have been 0.799 (0.661-0.935), not 1.201 (1.065-1.339). As a consequence, 3 text excerpts in the article require correction. In the fourth sentence of the results subsection of the abstract, the statement “Female sex, aging, obesity, and target-organ damage were associated with white-coat hypertension” should have read “Female sex, aging, obesity, and less target-organ damage were associated with white-coat hypertension”. On page 289, right column, the second sentence should state that multivariate analysis showed that white-coat hypertension “occurred more frequently in patients who were female, older, and obese and with less albuminuria or less targetorgan damage other than kidney damage.” On page 291, the third sentence in the first column should read “In our series, predictors of white-coat effect were female sex, aging, higher BMI, less albuminuria, and less targetorgan damage.”
