Clinical Report: Correction to the Third Author’s Institutional Affiliation

Overview

A correction was issued to the Original Investigation on transcranial electrical stimulation for delirium in postoperative patients, published August 18, 2026. The third author, Ms Leroy, was incorrectly listed as affiliated with the Institute of Biometry and Clinical Epidemiology; her correct affiliation is the Department of Neurology with Experimental Neurology at Charité–Universitätsmedizin Berlin.

Background

Postoperative delirium is the subject of the corrected Original Investigation, which examined transcranial electrical stimulation in postoperative patients. The notice addresses an author-affiliation error, not the study’s methods or findings. The supplied context also describes current delirium guidance and recent stimulation trials, but does not provide results from the corrected investigation itself. Accurate institutional attribution is necessary to identify the author’s correct department and institution.

Data Highlights

This correction notice reports no numerical or trial outcome data. It corrects Ms Leroy’s institutional affiliation from the Institute of Biometry and Clinical Epidemiology at Charité–University Medicine Berlin to the Department of Neurology with Experimental Neurology, Charité–Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany.

Key Findings

  • The correction concerns the third author’s institutional affiliation in an Original Investigation on transcranial electrical stimulation for postoperative delirium.
  • The investigation was published on August 18, 2026.
  • Ms Leroy was initially identified with the Institute of Biometry and Clinical Epidemiology at Charité–University Medicine Berlin.
  • The correct affiliation is the Department of Neurology with Experimental Neurology, Charité–Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany.
  • The supplied correction notice does not report changes to the investigation’s methods, results, or conclusions.

Clinical Implications

This notice corrects author attribution and does not provide new clinical evidence or treatment guidance. The supplied material does not indicate that the correction changes the investigation’s clinical findings.

Conclusion

The correction replaces Ms Leroy’s previously listed affiliation with her correct department at Charité–Universitätsmedizin Berlin. No other changes to the study are described in the supplied notice.
