In the April issue of In the Clinic (1), the following errors were made.
On page 1, the physician writer's name should be “Ann B. Nattinger, MD, MPH.”
On page 2, line 8 of the introduction should say “ … decreases the risk for breast cancer by 30% to 50%.” Starting on line 11, the phrase “ … although other modalities are useful” should be deleted. On line 13, the sentence should begin “Women of average … ” instead of “All women of average … ” On the left column, line 13 should say “45% of cases … ” and line 14 should say “65 years or older.” On the right column, starting on line 10, the phrase “can have breast cancer” should say “have high risk for breast cancer.”
On page 3, left column, starting on line 12 of the first full paragraph, the phrase “a specific type of estrogen called estrone … and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1” should just say “estrogen and other compounds.” On the right column, line 17 of the second full paragraph, the phrase “and it underestimates risk in African-American women” should be deleted.
On page 4, left column, line 20 of the first full paragraph, the word “additional” should be replaced with “specific.” On line 28, the sentence “Genetic testing is usually performed first” should be deleted. On the right column, line 4 of the first full paragraph, “ … by about 30% … ” should say “ … by 30% to 50% … ”
On page 5, left column, line 2 of the second full paragraph, it should say “34%” not “38%.”
On page 6, right column, line 11 of the second full paragraph, a new sentence, “Neither drug improves 5-year survival,” should appear before the sentence that starts “Raloxifene does not … ” On line 16, the words “seems to be” should be replaced with “is.” On line 2 of the third paragraph, the phrase “the choice of agents depends mainly on … ” should say “the choice of agents for postmenopausal women depends mainly on … ”
On page 8, left column, last line, “diagnosis” should be “early diagnosis.” On the right column, starting at the top line, the sentence should end “prevent death.” The phrase “because some breast cancers … ” should be deleted.
On page 10, left column, line 5 from the top, “for most women … ” should say “for the 88% of women … ” On line 4 of the first full paragraph, the word “through” should be replaced with “for.” In Table 4, the results of screening-detected invasive cancer should be “7.0,” not “70.0.”
On page 11, left column, there should be a citation for reference 29 at the end of the last line of the second full paragraph. On the right column, line 2 of the last paragraph, “best-studied” should say “best-supported.”
On page 12, right column, line 9 of the last paragraph, the word “somewhat” should be deleted.
On page 15, under “Who should get screened?” line 4 should say “ … and continuing to age 74 or for as long as … ”
Finally, in reference 25, the authors should be “Nelson HD, Tyne K, Naik A, et al.”
These corrections have been made to the online version.
