Correction to: Decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) following metabolic control and its relationship with baseline eGFR in type 2 diabetes with microalbuminuria or macroalbuminuria

Correction to: Diabetology International 10.1007/s13340-021-00517-2

In the original publication of the article, in Table 3, under Macroalbuminuria (n = 81), on the row “HbA1c”, the value of “Correlation coefficient and Regression coefficient” of Multivariate was incorrectly published as “ − 0.205 and − 3.34”.

The correct coefficient values should read as “0.205 and 3.34”.

“The correct table 3 is provided below.” here and include the corrected table 3 as well. (refer the attached PDF and corrections are marked. Include the correct table 3.

Independent variables comprise the baseline value of eGFR (before the start of diabetes dialysis prevention). Mean blood pressure = diastolic pressure + systolic pressure-diastolic pressure/3. Plaque in the carotid artery is the sum of the plaque thickness in the carotid artery
