Abstract

Chun H, Kim GD, Doo M. Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes.  2020;13:3601– 3609. Page 3601, Results, third and fourth sentence, the text “Among the postmenopausal women with high consumption of dietary carbohydrate, the adjusted odds ratios (ORs) [95% confidence intervals (95% CIs)] of MetS among participants with 25(OH) D deficiency increased 1.380-fold (95% CI = 1.086– 1.753) using the 25(OH)D-sufficient group as a reference. In contrast, the participants with 25(OH)D deficiency showed an increased risk of MetS [OR (95% CI) = 1.313 (1.041– 1.655)] with low fat consumption” should read “Among the postmenopausal women with high consumption of dietary carbohydrate, the adjusted odds ratios (ORs) [95% confidence intervals (95% CIs)] of MetS among participants with 25(OH)D deficiency increased 1.261-fold (95% CI = 1.013– 1.570) using the 25 (OH)D-sufficient group as a reference. In contrast, the participants with 25(OH)D deficiency showed an increased risk of MetS [OR (95% CI) = 1.239 (1.004– 1.529)] with low-fat consumption”.
