Error in Table

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Table 2 as published. The words “ICW (L)” and “ECW (L)” are inverted. The corrected order appears below. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
