There was an error in the original publication [1]. The authors identified an error concerning the time duration mentioned in the Results Section. The specific section in question is as follows:
From October 2020 to February 2023, 23 patients were enrolled, 10 males and 13 females, with an average age of 46 years. Approximately 50% of these patients had an injury in their dominant arm.
A correction has been made to the Results Section, Paragraph 1, as follows.
From October 2020 to October 2022, 23 patients were enrolled, 10 males and 13 females, with an average age of 46 years. Approximately 50% of these patients had an injury in their dominant arm. They were categorized into two groups based on their specific injuries: traumatic TFCC injury (8 participants) and distal end radius fracture with DRUJ instability (14 participants). In the period of study, no cases of Galeazzi fractures and Essex-Lopresti fractures were presented. Out of the total participants, 10 were randomly assigned to wear a sugar tong slab, while 13 were randomly assigned to wear a modified ulnar gutter slab. Only 1 participant was lost to follow-up, leaving 22 participants who were monitored until the end of the 6-week protocol period following surgery. No statistical difference was present in the demographic data between the two groups. (p < 0.05) (Table 1 and Figure 1).
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
