The original version of this Article contained an error.
The p value stated in the text for differences in fasting blood sugar, between non-overweight and obese groups, was incorrect. The text,
“There was no statistically significant difference in the level of ALT (98.9 ± 34.6 vs. 96.3 ± 24.1 p = 0.76), serum vitamin B12 (559 ± 417.1 vs. 433 ± 185.4 p = 0.18), fasting blood sugar (90.76 ± 8.45 vs. 98.1 ± 4.2, p = 0.12) or the serum homocysteine levels (13.2 ± 4.0 vs. 14.04 + 1.80 p = 0.49) between the non-overweight and obese groups.”
now reads,
“There was no statistically significant difference in the level of ALT (98.9 ± 34.6 vs. 96.3 ± 24.1 p = 0.76), serum vitamin B12 (559 ± 417.1 vs. 433 ± 185.4 p = 0.18) or the serum homocysteine levels (13.2 ± 4.0 vs. 14.04 + 1.80 p = 0.49) between the non-overweight and obese groups. Though the fasting blood sugar (90.76 ± 8.45 vs. 98.1 ± 4.2, p = 0.0001) was significantly different, there was only one patient whose fasting blood sugar placed them within range of a diabetes mellitus diagnosis (138 mg/dl, in the non-overweight group).”
