In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Table 3 as published. The percentage increases in the fourth column displayed incorrect numbers. The corrected Table 3 appears below.

There was an error in the original publication. As in Table 3, the percentage increases in the total and free 25(OH)D were incorrect in the text.
A correction has been made to the Discussion, Paragraph 11. The corrected paragraph appears below.
The percentage increase in the 25(OH)D levels after NB-UVB treatment in this cohort was 106%. This is in accordance with previous reports on AD patients after NB-UVB (110–276% increase) [38]. The percentage increase in free 25(OH)D was 124% (Table 3). There are no studies to compare this finding with.
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. These corrections were approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
