There are errors in the clinical practice guideline on the diagnosis of hypersensitivity pneumonitis in adults, published in the August 1, 2020, issue of the Journal. In the second section (Fibrotic HP [hypersensitivity pneumonitis]) of Table 7, the initial phrases are incorrect in all three columns. The initial phrase of the first column (HP) in the fibrotic HP section should read “Typical histopathological features of fibrotic HP; 1, 2 and 3 in at least one biopsy site” (not “1 or 2 and 3”); the initial phrase of the second column (Probable HP) in the fibrotic HP section should read “Both of the following features (1 and 2 from first column) in at least one biopsy site” (not “1 or 2”); and the initial phrase of the third column (Indeterminate for HP) should read “The following features in at least one biopsy site” (not “Either one of the following features in at least one biopsy site”). These corrections apply to Table 7 in both the full document and the executive summary.
For the convenience of our readers, the Journal is replacing the online versions of the article with corrected versions.
