The authors regret an error in the data presentation of 8 (Adverse Event Analysis) in the above-mentioned article. During the data processing stage, an operational error led to the duplication of data between two distinct comparison groups. Specifically, the data presented under the "A group" and "D group" columns (Medication background) were inadvertently copied from the "100 mg" and "200 mg" columns (Dosage of medication), which resulted in an incorrect representation of the patient distribution in the medication background categories.
The authors have now reviewed and corrected the data based on the original medical records. The corrected version of the table is presented below. All text descriptions, statistical interpretations, and the overall conclusions of the manuscript remain unaffected by this correction. The P-values have been reconfirmed and are consistent with the original findings.

The authors would like to express their apologies once again for the following error: In 8 of the original article, the data in the "Medication background" and "Dosage of medication" columns were duplicated. The correct data have now been updated. This error was limited to the table presentation and does not affect the research conclusions.
