Management outcomes of patients with type 2 diabetes: targeting the 10-year absolute risk of coronary heart disease
Published online: 6 August 2007
Re: “Management outcomes of patients with type 2 diabetes: targeting the 10-year absolute risk of coronary heart disease”, by Tuck Y Yong, George Phillipov and Patrick J Phillips, in the 18 June issue of the Journal (Med J Aust 2007; 186: 622-624). There was an editing error introduced in the Results section of the Abstract of this article. The first sentence should have read:
Results: 42%, 61% and 43% of patients were receiving medication to treat hyperglycaemia, hypertension and hypercholesterolaemia, respectively; 46%, 29% and 15% of patients, respectively, had achieved the recommended RACGP target values for HbA1c, blood pressure, and total cholesterol; and 22% of patients were current smokers.
The html and pdf versions of this article have been corrected.
Re: “Research misconduct: can Australia learn from the UK’s stuttering system?”, a letter to the Editor by Peter T Wilmshurst in the 18 June issue of the Journal (Med J Aust 2007; 186: 662-663).
In the editing of this letter, we incorrectly stated that the “Editor’s choice” column in the British Medical Journal, entitled Corruption in medicine,1 was only published online and thus was no longer available, as it had been removed, to avoid litigation, from the online version (together with the article by Wilmshurst that it was linked to). However, the column was also published in the paper journal and is still available there (as is the article2).
The html and pdf versions of this article have been corrected.
