Because the changes of the references citation in Table 1, some paragraphs refer to the relevant reference have also been changed as well (paragraph under Table 1, Sections 2 and 3, paragraphs below Figure 1, Section 4 references, Section 5 references, Section 6 references, Section 7 paragraph 1 altered text and references, summary references).

References

The reference list in the original publication contained incorrect citations due to a formatting and compilation error during manuscript preparation. With this correction, the order of some references has been adjusted accordingly. The author state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
