In “Multiple admissions to the coronary care unit due to falsely elevated cardiac troponin” by M. Ayan and colleagues, published in the April 2018 issue of Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings, Figure 1 was not correctly identified as being adapted from another source. The figure was slightly adapted from a figure in “Heterophilic antibody interference in immunometric assays” by N. Bolstad et al. (Best Pract Res Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2013;27:647-661), with permission from Elsevier.

Figure 1.

Figure 1.

(a) A schematic illustration of an immunometric assay for cardiac troponin. (b) Falsely elevated result caused by interference from heterophilic antibodies.

The published online version has been corrected to reference the original source from which Figure 1 was adapted.

The authors apologize for this oversight.
