In the published article, there was an error in correspondence email. Instead of “ dryu_hmu@163.com,” it should be “ yubodr@163.com.”
In the published article, there was an error in Table 4 as published. The value of “P for interaction” in the subgroup “Sex” was given as “ <0.506.” The correct value is “0.506”. The corrected Table 4 and its caption appear below.
Table 4.

Bolded values have P-value < 0.05.
BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; HF, heart failure; MI, myocardial infarction; NSTEMI, non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction; STEMI, ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
In the published article, there were two errors. The statement for the method of statistics analysis was given as “Kruskal–Wallis,” where it should be “Kruskal-Wallis test.”
A correction has been made to Methods, Statistics analysis. This sentence previously stated:
“…compared by Kruskal–Wallis chi-square test or Fisher's exact test.”
The corrected sentence appears below:
“…compare by Kruskal–Wallis test, chi-square test or Fisher's exact test.”
A correction has been made to Discussion, Serum phosphorus and mortality. This sentence previously stated:
“It was similar to a prior study, in which higher serum phosphorus is independently associated with the risk of adverse events in patients with AMI, and the association is more pronounced in patients with CKD (7). This phenomenon may be attributed to the reduced sample size when the patients were divided into different subgroups, or due to different races, baseline characteristics, and controlling for more confounders.”
The corrected sentence appears below:
“It was similar to a prior study, in which higher serum phosphorus is independently associated with the risk of adverse events in patients with AMI, and the association is more pronounced in patients with CKD (7).”
The authors apologize for these errors and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
