AUTHOR CORRECTION

Volume 51, no. 8, p. 2501–2507, 2013. Page 2502, Materials and Methods, “Patients and definitions” section, line 2: “125 kidney transplant recipients” should read “120 kidney transplant recipients.”

Page 2502, Materials and Methods, “Patients and definitions” section, line 7: “One hundred twenty-five KTRs” should read “One hundred twenty KTRs.”

Page 2502, Materials and Methods, “Patients and definitions” section: Information about the transplant immunosuppression induction protocol used was inadvertently omitted. The following statement should be inserted at the end of line 9: “The following induction immunosuppressive treatments were employed: antithymocyte globulin (ATG) for 67/120 patients (56%) (median age of cohort, 60 years), basiliximab for 47/120 patients (39%) (median age of cohort, 48 years), both ATG and basiliximab for 3/120 patients (2.5%) (median age of cohort, 34 years), and alefacept for 3/120 patients (2.5%) (median age of cohort, 33 years).” The overall results and conclusions of the study are unchanged.
