In the original article, there was an error. “19.0 min” should be “29.0 min” in the Abstract.

A correction has been made to Abstract, Results, Paragraph One:

Results: GTT was shorter in the chewing gum group (29.0 min, interquartile range: 17.0–52.0 min) than in the control group [42.5 min (23.25–60 min); P = 0.01].

In the original article, there was an error. “DY (66.02 vs. 59.80%, P = 0.359)” should be “DY (67.96 vs. 59.80%, P = 0.224)” in Abstract.

A correction has been made to Abstract, Results, Paragraph One:

CR (95.15 vs. 89.22%, P = 0.114) and DY (67.96 vs. 59.80%, P = 0.224) did not differ between the groups.

In the original article, there was an error. “P = 0.359” should be “P = 0.224” in the Results section.

A correction has been made to Results, Outcomes, Paragraph Two:

The DY and CR also did not significantly differ between the chewing gum and control groups (P = 0.224 and P = 0.114, respectively).

In the original article, there was a mistake in Figures 2, 3 as published. The order of Figures 2, 3 are reversed. The corrected Figures 2, 3 appears below.
