In the article “Survival in Alzheimer disease: A multiethnic, population-based study of incident cases” by E.P. Helzner et al. (Neurology® 2008;71:1489–1495), there is an error in the Results section of the abstract. The corrected sentence should read as follows: “Mortality rates were highest among those diagnosed at older ages and among non-Hispanic whites compared to Hispanics.” The finding is reported correctly in the body of the paper. The author regret the error.
