In Table 1, the “Median, IQR” of the age of “Total”, “Disease-related” and “Injury-related” patients as well as the “P-value” were shifted. Furthermore, the “Median, IQR” of these patients’ “Length of stay” and the “P-value” were shifted.

Incorrect:

	Total		Disease-related		Injury-related		P value
	N	%	N	%	N	%
Median, IQR	75 (63–83)	76 (64–83)	68 (54–79)	< 0.001
Median, IQR	4.4 (2.0–11.2)	4.5 (1.9–11.7)	3.6 (2.0–6.9)	< 0.001

Correct:

	Total		Disease-related		Injury-related		P value

Median, IQR	75 (63–83)		76 (64–83)		68 (54–79)		< 0.001
Median, IQR	4.4 (2.0–11.2)		4.5 (1.9–11.7)		3.6 (2.0–6.9)		< 0.001

Additionally, in Table 3, the “P-value” for “Mental status at ED entrance” was shifted.

Incorrect:

Correct:

	Total		Cancer		Chronic respiratory disease		Chronic liver disease		Heart failure		Others		P-value
	N	%	N	%	N	%	N	%	N	%	N	%
Mental status at ED entrance													< 0.001
