In the published publication, the affiliation of the second author is “SEC Centre for Independent Living, Naigaon, Pune 410405, India”. This affiliation has been updated to “Society of Community Health Oriented Operational Links (SCHOOL), Dalvi Hospital Unit, Shivaji Nagar, Pune 411005, India”.
In the original publication [], a child was photographed in a series of poses (Figure 4). Due to nature of the performed test, anonymization of the child in the photo was not possible, thus allowing the child to be easily identified. The authors have now provided an illustration of the original images instead. The corrected Figure 4 appears below:
Figure 4. A schematic diagram showing the patient’s performance in the Romberg test. The patient stands with their feet together and arms at their sides, with their eyes first open, then closed. The examiners looked for an imbalance in relation to the eyes opened (A) versus closed state (B). The modification of the test (CI) is explained in the text. Source: authors’ original illustration.
There was information missing in the back-matter part in the original publication under Institutional Review Board Statement. The full name of the ethics committee, approval code and date have now been added.
The corrected statement should read as follows:
The study was conducted according to the guidelines of the Declaration of Helsinki, and approved by the Ethics Committee of B.K.L.Walawalkar Rural Medical College and Hospital (IEC Ref No: BKLW/RMC/IEC/37/2019(3), 16 March 2019).
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
