Following publication of the original article, an error was identified in the Fig. 2 caption.

The updated Fig. 2 caption is given below and the changes have been highlighted in bold typeface.

① The sentence currently reads:

Fig. 2 Analysis conditions. The load restraint conditions were set assum-ing a one-leg standing posture, with 2,400 N at the stem head from 15°proximal medial to the femoral axis and 1,200 N at the abductor pollicisbrevis from 20° distal lateral to the femoral axis

The sentence should read:

Fig. 2 Analysis conditions. The load restraint conditions were set assum-ing a one-leg standing posture, with 2,400 N at the stem head from 15°proximal medial to the femoral axis and 1,200 N at the abductor muscles from 20° distal lateral to the femoral axis

The original article has been corrected.
