2015 JAPAN Critical Limb Ischemia Database (JCLIMB) Annual Report

The Japanese Society for Vascular Surgery JCLIMB Committee, NCD JCLIMB Analytical Team

In the above secondary publication article, a formula error was found after the publication, which affected numerical data in the main text and tables. The erratum of the original Japanese article was published in Japanese Journal of Vascular Surgery Vol. 28 (2019) No. 4. The same corrections and the corrected version of tables are given below.

p. 400, Left, ll. 20–24

Incorrect:

Therefore, in JCLIMB, the SPP value was converted to TP using the conversion equation TP=0.6853 SPP+14.48 from the correlation data of SPP and TP reported in Japan,⁸⁾ and applied for WIfI ischemic grading (Table 1-2-2).

Correct:

Therefore, in JCLIMB, the SPP value was converted to TP using the conversion equation SPP=0.6853 TP+14.48 from the correlation data of SPP and TP reported in Japan,⁸⁾ and applied for WIfI ischemic grading (Table 1-2-2).

p. 400, Right, ll. 3–6

Incorrect:

On the WIfI classification, limbs with the stages 1, 2, 3, and 4 accounted for 10%, 23%, 26% (27%), and 40% (41%) of the limbs, respectively.

Correct:

On the WIfI classification, limbs with the stages 1, 2, 3, and 4 accounted for 19%, 18%, 29%, and 44% of the limbs, respectively.

p. 400, Right, ll. 23–29

Incorrect:

In Table 3-6, 81 limbs (77 limbs) were registered as Ischemic grade 0 in WIfI classification. By definition, a limb with Ischemic grade 0 has a TP of 60 mmHg or more (SPP 66 mmHg or more in JCLIMB) or AP higher than 100 mmHg, or if arterial calcification precludes reliable AP or TP measurements, TcPO₂ 60 mmHg, or more (Table 1-1-2).

Correct:

In Table 3-6, 89 limbs (85 limbs) were registered as Ischemic grade 0 in WIfI classification. By definition, a limb with Ischemic grade 0 has a TP of 60 mmHg or more (SPP 56 mmHg or more in JCLIMB) or AP higher than 100 mmHg, or if arterial calcification precludes reliable AP or TP measurements, TcPO₂ 60 mmHg, or more (Table 1-1-2).
