Abstract

The authors regret an error in the manuscript's reported data, specifically regarding reversal of labels for patients in non-cosyntropin group. Patient label in this group with headache were interchanged with patients without headache. Although both the old and corrected P values are statistically non-significant and interpretation does not change, a corrigendum is necessary to ensure accuracy. The attached Fig. 1 also needs to be replaced with new Fig. 1 (to correctly represent the interchanged labels).[Formula presented] Details of the error (as printed): Results section Line 8 (left column) The previously published text reads: “Our preliminary search identified 132 patients who met inclusion criteria, including 73 who received cosyntropin and 59 patients who did not. After nearest-neighbor matching with a caliper of ≤10%, 17 patients were excluded, leaving a matched sample of 65 patients in the cosyntropin group (55.6%) and 50 patients in the no-cosyntropin group (Supplementary Table 1). In those who received cosyntropin, 37 patients (57%) developed PDPH compared with 29 patients (58%) in the no-cosyntropin group (P = 0.08) (Fig. 1).” Correction: “Our preliminary search identified 132 patients who met inclusion criteria, including 73 who received cosyntropin and 59 patients who did not. After nearest-neighbor matching with a caliper of ≤10%, 17 patients were excluded, leaving a matched sample of 65 patients in the cosyntropin group (55.6%) and 50 patients in the no-cosyntropin group (Supplementary Table 1). In those who received cosyntropin, 37 patients (57%) developed PDPH compared with 21 patients (42%) in the no-cosyntropin group (P = 0.11) (Fig. 1).” The authors would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. @ Chi Square test without any correction.
