A Corrigendum on
A modified method for constructing experimental rat periodontitis model
by Zhang X, Xu M, Xue Q and He Y (2023). Front. Bioeng. Biotechnol. 10:1098015. doi: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.1098015
In the published article, there was an error in Figure 2 as published. In the Figure 2E, the “21T” should be revised to the “21M”. The corrected Figure 2 and its caption “Degree of alveolar bone loss and bacteria accumulation after modeling” appear below.
FIGURE 2
FIGURE 2. Degree of alveolar bone loss and bacteria accumulation after modeling. (A) Representative sagittal 3D (i-vii) and bi-dimensional views (viii-xiv) of the maxillary molars from CT scanning of the correspond groups. The red line corresponds to the distances from the cementoenamel junction to the alveolar bone crest (CEJ–ABC). (B, C) Measurement of the distance from the CEJ to the ABC and the ratio of bone volume to tissue volume (BV/TV) at each group after modeling. (D) Photograph of colony forming unit (CFU) from the 3D group, the 7D group, the 14D group, the 21D group and the 21M group. (E) Statistical analysis of colony forming unit (CFU) count. (F) Times of replace the thread ligature or metal steel ligature. Results are the mean ± s.d. (n = 4 rat per group). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001, ns no significance (one-way ANOVA and Bonferroni’s post hoc tests).
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
