Correction to: Scientific Report 10.1038/s41598-018-19732-0, published online 23 January 2018
This Article contains errors in Table 1 where the values listed under ‘Body weight (g)’ are incorrect.
Table 1.
Effects of EA on body weight and organ index in D-gal-treated rats.
| Group | Body weight(g) | Organ index (mg/g) | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spleen index | Thymus index | Kidney index | ||
| Blank control | 276.82 ± 1.55 | 1.87 ± 0.23 | 1.45 ± 0.21 | 10.68 ± 0.56 |
| D-gal | 212.06 ± 2.24Δ | 1.54 ± 0.24Δ | 1.16 ± 0.15Δ | 8.01 ± 1.32Δ |
| VE (150 mg/kg) | 274.96 ± 2.67** | 1.78 ± 0.15** | 1.39 ± 0.18** | 9.95 ± 1.29* |
| EA-L (50 mg/kg) | 232.4 ± 2.80*Δ | 1.55 ± 0.28*Δ | 1.18 ± 0.14Δ | 8.29 ± 0.89Δ |
| EA-M (100 mg/kg) | 255.03 ± 2.26** | 1.86 ± 0.19** | 1.45 ± 0.19** | 9.10 ± 0.94* |
| EA-H (150 mg/kg) | 282.74 ± 1.49** | 1.98 ± 0.33** | 1.47 ± 0.15** | 9.86 ± 0.80* |
Notes: Dates are given as mean ± SD (n = 8).ΔP < 0.05 and ΔΔP < 0.01 vs blank control
group. *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01 vs D-gal model group.
EA-H: high-dose EA-treated group, EA-M: the medium-dose EA group
EA-L: the low-dose EA-treated group
