Abstract

In the original publication of this article [1], the authors were notified that there were some errors in Table 2 that were also present in the main text, specifically in the results section of the abstract, the overall sensitivity of the LAM-test of 56.1% with 95% CI of (43.3–68.3) shouldhave been 62.7 with 95% CI of (49.1–75); the LAM-testsensitivity in PLWH with < 200 CD4 T cells/μl of 62.2% (95% CI 46.5–76.2) should have been of 71.8% with 95% CI of (55.1–85), and the differences in sensitivity when comparing LAM-test results obtained from untreated vs. α-mannosidase treated urine had been deleted. The sentence “the two participating UAIs using the Fischer exact test” in the statistical analysis sub-heading should have been “the LAM tests using the McNemar exact test”.
