Correction to: BoneKEy Reports 2, Article number: 270; doi: 10.1038/bonekey.2013.4; published online 16 January 2013.
Since the publication of this article, it has been noted that the term ‘hyperthyroidism' was used in the article title and throughout the text instead of the correct term ‘hyperparathyroidism'. This error has now been rectified. The article with the corrected date appears online, together with this corrigendum.
The author would like to apologize for this error.
