Following publication of the original article [1], the authors reported three errors in Tables 5 and 6.
In the annotation “a” of Table 5, “catecholamines” and “vasopressin” have been mistakenly listed as covariates and should be removed.
The correct annotation “a” of Table 5 should read: “Adjusted HR adjusted for age, sex, Charlson comorbidity index, admission year, ambulance use, teaching hospitals, emergency charge, hospital beds, patients from nursing home, source of infection, drainage, surgery, mechanical ventilation, CRRT, PMX-DHP, VA-ECMO, use of two or more catecholamines, transfusions (red blood cell, platelet, fresh frozen plasma), albumin, globulin, sedatives drugs, opioids drugs, recombinant thrombomodulin, antithrombin III, and hydrocortisone”.
In the annotation “a” of Table 6, “blood culture test”, “urinary chemistry test”, “catecholamines” and “vasopressin” have been mistakenly listed as covariates and should be removed.
The correct annotation “a” of Table 6 should read: “Adjusted for sex, Charlson comorbidity index, admission year, ambulance use, teaching hospitals, emergency charge, hospital beds, patients from nursing home, source of infection, drainage, surgery, mechanical ventilation, CRRT, PMX-DHP, VA-ECMO, use of two or more catecholamines, transfusions (red blood cell, platelet, fresh frozen plasma), albumin, globulin, sedatives drugs, opioids drugs, recombinant thrombomodulin, antithrombin III, and hydrocortisone”.
In addition, the “*” in annotation b and annotation c of both Tables 5 and 6 should be replaced by “a”.
The correct annotation b of Table 5 should read: “Adjusted odds ratio adjusted for the same covariates as a”.
The correct annotation c of Table 5 should read: “Regression coefficient adjusted for the same covariates as a”.
The correct annotation b of Table 6 should read: “Adjusted for age and the same covariates as a. Among these, procedure and source of infection that fell into each subgroup were excluded from the covariates”.
The correct annotation c of Table 6 should read: “Adjusted for age and the same covariates as a”.
The original article [1] has been updated.
