Error in Table

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Table 4 as published. “The header for Frye et al., 2018 was missing in the original table and the shading was incorrect in the header”. The corrected Table 4 appears below. The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused and would like to clarify that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction has been approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
Table 4. Outcome measures represented in effect size in key studies which have used d,l-leucovorin. Cohen’s d’ was calculated for studies which provided enough information to make such calculations. For controlled studies, the effect size represented the difference between the treatment and the control group, whereas for uncontrolled studies, the effect size was calculated only for the treatment. Effect sizes were considered small if Cohen’s d’ was 0.2; medium for Cohen’s d’ of 0.5, and large if Cohen’s d’ was 0.8. Effects in bold are statistically significant.
