“The studies involving human participants were reviewed and approved by National Healthcare Group IRB. The patients/participants provided their written informed consent to participate in this study.”

The corrected sentence appears below:

“The studies involving human participants were reviewed and approved by National Healthcare Group IRB. Written informed consent to participate in this study was obtained from study participants. In addition, written informed consent was obtained from the individual for the publication of any potentially identifiable images or data included in this article.”

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.
