We have found some inadvertent errors in our paper published in Nutrients [1]. This is a second published correction, the first correction can be found [2].
On page 900, the table heading should read “Risk for diabetes in meat-eaters, compared with non-meat-eaters” and not “Meat as a Categorical Variable”.
On page 900, the study titled “Adventist Mortality Study and Adventist Health Study-1 Tonstad et al. (2013) [11]” requires a change in the citation to “9”. The full text should read, “Adventist Mortality Study and Adventist Health Study-1 Vang et al. (2008) [9]”.
On page 900, the study titled “Adventist Health Study-2 Tonstad et al. (2009) [10]” requires a change in the Findings column. The text should read “Odds ratio and 95% CI for diabetes diagnosis: 1.85 (1.67, 2.04)” and not “Odds ratio and 95% CI for diabetes diagnosis: 0.54 (0.49, 0.60)”.
On page 900, the study titled “Adventist Health Study-2 Tonstad et al. (2013) [11]” requires a change in the Findings column. The text should read “Odds ratio with 95% CI for diabetes diagnosis: 1.62 (1.32, 1.99)” and not “Odds ratio with 95% CI for diabetes diagnosis: 0.618 (0.0503, 0.760)”.
On page 900, the study titled “Meta-analysis Pan et al. (2011) [12]” should read “Pan et al. (2011) [12]”. The “+ D1” in the Findings column of this study should be deleted. The text should read “Relative ratios and 95% CI for diabetes diagnosis”. Additionally, we would like to insert a table heading before this study. The text should read “Meta-analysis of risk of developing diabetes related to daily meat servings”.
The fully corrected table should appear as follows:
Table 1.
Published studies of the relationship between meat consumption and risk of type 2 diabetes.
On page 902, the citation that reads “[1]” should read “[15]”. The full, corrected text should read “In the Nurses’ Health Study I, two major dietary patterns were identified among the 69,544 participants: a “Western” dietary pattern, defined by higher intakes of red and processed meats, sweets, and desserts, French fries, and refined grains, and a “prudent” dietary pattern, characterized by higher intakes of fruits, vegetables, legumes, fish, poultry, and whole grains [15]”.
These changes have no material impact on the conclusions of our paper. We apologize to our readers.
