In the article “Correlation of Serum Androgens with Anthropometric and Metabolic Indices in Healthy, Nonobese Postmenopausal Women” by Peter R. Casson, Michael J. Toth, Julia V. Johnson, Frank Z. Stanczyk, Colleen L. Casey, and Marjorie E. Dixon (J Clin Endocrinol Metab 95:4276–4282, 2010), the authors found several errors in Table 2 of their paper (page 4279). In particular, (a) the units for androstenedione are pg/ml, (b) the high end of the range for T is 48.2 ng/dl, not 482 ng/dl, and the units for DHT are pg/ml, not ng/dl. These changes to the table do not change the conclusions of the paper. The authors apologize for these oversights.

In the article “Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia Due to Steroid 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline” by Phyllis W. Speiser, Ricardo Azziz, Laurence S. Baskin, Lucia Ghizzoni, Terry W. Hensle, Deborah P. Merke, Heino F. L. Meyer-Bahlburg, Walter L. Miller, Victor M. Montori, Sharon E. Oberfield, Martin Ritzen, and Perrin C. White (J Clin Endocrinol Metab 95:4133–4160, 2010), the authors note an error on page 4140, in Figure 2. Instead of reading <50 nmol/L (<1666 ng/dl) Likely Unaffected or Heterozygote under 17-OHP post-ACTH stimulation test, this should have read <30 nmol/L (<990 ng/dl) Likely Unaffected or Heterozygote. This correction does not change the results in the paper. The authors apologize for the error in the figure.

In the article “A Randomized, Controlled Trial of Vitamin D Supplementation upon Musculoskeletal Health in Postmenarchal Females” by K. A. Ward, G. Das, S. A. Roberts, J. L. Berry, J. E. Adams, R. Rawer, and M. Z. Mughal (J Clin Endocrinol Metab 95:4643–4651, 2010), the authors report errors in one column of Table 2, which appears on page 4648. The values under Mean change for 25(OH)D are incorrect. The correct values are 38.1 (11.3) nmol−1 for Vitamin D and −2.1 (8.6) nmol−1 for Placebo. These changes do not alter the differences reported between the treatment groups. The authors apologize for this error.
