The authors wish to make a correction to the published version of their paper []. While replying to a Letter to the Editor [], we re-examined our results and realized that an erroneous version of Table 4 had been accidentally incorporated into the paper. During the manuscript review process, we were asked to reorder the table columns, include the standard deviations, and include all of the p values. Due to the substantial nature of these edits, many errors were accidentally introduced into this table. We sincerely apologize for this unfortunate error and regret any subsequent confusion. A corrected version of Table 4 is below.
Table 4 (Corrected).
Fatty acid profile (g/100 g of fatty acids) of total plasma phospholipids in preterm infants, receiving human milk fortified with a control (cHMF) or with a new human milk fortifier (nHMF) before and after 21 days of treatment. Estimates of the treatment effect nHMF/cHMF (difference) and the two-sided p-values are given for each fatty acid analyzed in the different lipid compartments.
This change does not impact the overall results or scientific conclusions. The original manuscript will remain online on the article webpage, with a reference to this correction.
