The publisher wishes to bring the readers’ attention to errors in the above article.
In the article cited above, y values in Figure 1a‐1c were incorrectly displayed as, ‘y = 5.81x + 0.57 Lumipulse G PIVKA‐II’, ‘y = 8.11x + 0.60 μTASWako DCP’, and ‘y = 4.68x + 0.59 ARCHITECT PIVKA‐II’, respectively. The y values should have been, ‘y = 5.81 + 0.57x’, ‘y= 8.11 + 0.60x’, and ‘y = 4.68 + 0.59x’, respectively. The corrected version of Figure 1 is shown in the next page.
In addition, y values in the ‘Results’, ‘Analytical performance’ section were incorrectly displayed as:
Results
Analytical performance. […] Weighted Deming regression analyses showed moderate agreement between the Elecsys PIVKA‐II assay and Lumipulse G PIVKA‐II (y = 5.81x + 0.57; Pearson's r = 0.883; P < 0.001); μTASWako DCP (y = 8.11x + 0.60; Pearson's r = 0.866; P < 0.001); and ARCHITECT PIVKA‐II (y = 4.68x + 0.59; Pearson's r = 0.875; P < 0.001) assays (Fig. 1).
The correct sentence should read:
Results
Analytical performance. […] Weighted Deming regression analyses showed moderate agreement between the Elecsys PIVKA‐II assay and Lumipulse G PIVKA‐II (y = 5.81 + 0.57x; Pearson's r = 0.883; P < 0.001); μTASWako DCP (y = 8.11 + 0.60x; Pearson's r = 0.866; P < 0.001); and ARCHITECT PIVKA‐II (y = 4.68 + 0.59x; Pearson's r = 0.875; P < 0.001) assays (Fig. 1).
