Dubois M, Dixit A, Lamb G. Tuberculosis in Pediatric Solid Organ and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Recipients. Glob Pediatr Health. 2021:8: 1-15 doi:10.1177/2333794X20981548

The above referenced article was erroneously published with wrong title and in-text reference citations. The article has been corrected with the below changes:

The author would like to change the title from Tuberculosis in Pediatric Solid Organ and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Recipients to Tuberculosis in Pediatric Solid Organ and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Recipients: A Narrative Review.

On page 4, the reference citation of 63 on sentence “In a review of post-transplant associated pediatric TB disease in Spain, 7 children (6 SOT, 1HSCT) developed TB disease over 26 years; the median time from transplantation to diagnosis was 2.5 years” should be changed to 64.

On page 7, the reference citation of 77,78 on sentence “Treatment decisions are guided by the drug susceptibility pattern. MDR-TB, defined as MTB resistant to isoniazid and rifampin, presents treatment challenges for children, but new data is emerging regarding safety and pharmacokinetic studies in children along with child-friendly formulations” should be changed to 78 and 79 with a removal of World Health Organization.

On page 7, reference 53 should be mentioned after sentence “We recommend consultation with national guidelines regarding recommendations for BCG vaccination at birth. In high endemic TB settings, the WHO recommends BCG vaccination for all infants.”

On page 8, the reference citation of reference 91 on sentence “Another regimen, the BPaL regimen, is now being used for adults with extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR-TB), which consists of oral bedaquiline, pretomanid, and linezolid for 6 to 9 months” should be replaced with reference 92.

On page 5, “World Health Organization” was removed from after (Figure 1) in the text, as it refers to Reference #1. In addition, Figure 1 ‘s description has both authors and references numbers. Can simplify to only include reference numbers (i.e., 1, 7, 9, 26).
