The authors of this article (1), published in the February 2021 issue of AnnalsATS were recently made aware of errors in the calculation of the SF-12 scores in the Pulmonary Hypertension Association Registry (PHAR) and would like to make the following corrections to data in their article:
In the Results section, Quality of Life subsection, the text “and patients with obesity had lower baseline SF-12 physical scores (worse HRQoL) compared to normal weight and overweight patients (P = 0.008 and 0.02, respectively)” has been added.
Table 1, SF-12 physical score row entries are changed to 36 ± 11, 35 ± 11, and 33 ± 10; SF-12 mental score row entries are changed to 48 ± 12, 46 ± 11, and 46 ± 12.
Figures 2B and 2C have also been updated accordingly.
