Correction to: Scientific Reports 10.1038/s41598-018-19200-9, published online 22 January 2018

This Article contains an error in Table 1 where the mean value and standard deviation of pregnancy week for the "screening group:NGT women" was incorrectly given as 23.0 +/- 9.5.

The correct numbers are 26.5 +/- 2.1.

Incorrect:

	Screening group
	NGT	GDM	P
N	8	8	–
Age [years]	33 ± 5	32 ± 3	0.7
Body mass index [kg/m2]	28.1 ± 5.4	29.1 ± 6.1	0.7
Pregnancy week [weeks]	23.0 +/− 9.5	25.9 ± 1.7	0.4

Correct:

	Screening group
	NGT	GDM	P
N	8	8	–
Age [years]	33 ± 5	32 ± 3	0.7
Body mass index [kg/m2]	28.1 ± 5.4	29.1 ± 6.1	0.7
Pregnancy week [weeks]	26.5 +/− 2.1	25.9 ± 1.7	0.5

Furthermore, this results in a correct p value of 0.5 instead of 0.4.

Data described and shown in other Tables and Figures are not affected, as the analyses were performed from separate files.
