Correction to: Prediction of Symptoms and Evaluation of Surgical Indications After Birth Based on Tracheal Morphology of Double Aortic Arch
To correct errors in the regression formula and calculations related to the predicted normal tracheal diameter (NTD) in a previous study, ensuring clarity on the nature of the errors.
Key Findings:
Errors in the regression formula description were corrected without affecting study conclusions.
Gestational age was initially entered incorrectly, affecting Z-score calculations.
The predicted standard deviation formula was corrected, leading to recalculated Z-scores.
Interpretation:
Despite the corrections, the statistical significance and overall conclusions of the study remain unchanged, reaffirming the study's validity.
Limitations:
Errors were limited to the written description and calculations, not affecting the original analyses.
Corrections may lead to confusion regarding previously published results, particularly in the interpretation of Z-scores.
Conclusion:
The authors apologize for the errors and confirm that the study's conclusions are still valid, emphasizing the importance of accurate reporting.
