A Corrigendum on
SARS-CoV2 infection during pregnancy causes persistent immune abnormalities in women without affecting the newborns
by Vazquez-Alejo E, Tarancon-Diez L, Carrasco I, Vigil-Vázquez S, Muñoz-Chapuli M, Rincón-López E, Saavedra-Lozano J, Santos-Sebastián M, Aguilera-Alonso D, Hernanz-Lobo A, Santiago-García B, de León-Luis JA, Muñoz P, Sánchez-Luna M, Navarro ML and Muñoz-Fernández MÁ (2022) Front. Immunol. 13:947549. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.947549
In the published article, there was an error in Figure 1 as published. The graphic 1E of Figure 1 (IL-10 cytokine levels in newborns) visually corresponds to the analysis of the graphic 1B (IL-10 cytokine levels) in mothers. Although the statistical analysis is correctly indicated, the data representation for that cytokine in newborns is incorrect. While this error does not affect any of the results presented in the article, as the data analysis and discussion were based on the correct statistical results, it is nonetheless a visual error. The corrected Figure 1 and its caption appear below.
Figure 1
Figure 1. Soluble pro/anti-inflammatory cytokine levels in plasma. Differences at baseline and 6 months later. Soluble TNF-α, IL-10 and IL-6 levels from mothers and newborns’ plasma at baseline and after 6 months (A–F); Mann-Whitney U-test was used to compare groups. Wilcoxon test was conducted to compare paired events. SCV2-M, SARS-CoV2 mothers’ group; UM, Uninfected mothers’ group. **p ≤ 0.01, *p<0.05, Ɵ 0.05≤p ≤ 0.1, ns p>0.1.
