Incorrect P Value and Figure Label Error

PMCID: PMC8097491  PMID: 33944890

In the Original Investigation titled “Effect of Mechanical Thrombectomy Without vs With Intravenous Thrombolysis on Functional Outcome Among Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke: The SKIP Randomized Clinical Trial,”1 published in the January 19, 2021, issue of JAMA, the P value for the modified Rankin Scale score reduction (shift analysis) should have been reported as .37 in the Results section and Table 2. Also, the labels in the forest plot in Figure 3 should have been switched, so that “Favors intravenous thrombolysis plus mechanical thrombectomy” was on the left and “Favors mechanical thrombectomy alone” was on the right. This article was corrected online.
