A Corrigendum on
A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Prevalence of Congenital Myopathy

by Huang, K., Bi, F.-F., and Yang, H. (2021). Front. Neurol. 12:761636. doi: 10.3389/fneur.2021.761636

In the original article, there was an error. In the Abstract there was a mistake in the statement of the results of the pooled prevalence of congenital myopathy in the all-age population. Instead of “The pooled prevalence of congenital myopathy in the all-age population was 1.50 (95% CI, 0.93–2.06) per 100,000, while the prevalence in the child population was 2.73 (95% CI, 1.34–4.12) per 100,000”, it should be “The pooled prevalence of congenital myopathy in the all-age population was 1.62 (95% CI, 1.13–2.11) per 100,000, while the prevalence in the child population was 2.76 (95% CI, 1.34–4.18) per 100,000.”

A correction has been made to Abstract, Results, Paragraph 1:

Results: A total of 11 studies were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. Of the 11 studies included, 10 (90.9%) were considered medium-quality, one (9.1%) was considered low-quality, and no study was assessed as having a high overall quality. The pooled prevalence of congenital myopathy in the all-age population was 1.62 (95% CI, 1.13–2.11) per 100,000, while the prevalence in the child population was 2.76 (95% CI, 1.34–4.18) per 100,000. In the pediatric population, the prevalence among males was 2.92 (95% CI, −1.70 to 7.55) per 100,000, while the prevalence among females was 2.47 (95% CI, −1.67 to 6.61) per 100,000. The prevalence estimates of the all-age population per 100,000 were 0.20 (95% CI 0.10–0.35) for nemaline myopathy, 0.37 (95% CI 0.21–0.53) for core myopathy, 0.08 (95% CI −0.01 to 0.18) for centronuclear myopathy, 0.23 (95% CI 0.04–0.42) for congenital fiber-type disproportion myopathy, and 0.34 (95% CI, 0.24–0.44) for unspecified congenital myopathies. In addition, the prevalence estimates of the pediatric population per 100,000 were 0.22 (95% CI 0.03–0.40) for nemaline myopathy, 0.46 (95% CI 0.03–0.90) for core myopathy, 0.44 (95% CI 0.03–0.84) for centronuclear myopathy, 0.25 (95% CI −0.05 to 0.54) for congenital fiber-type disproportion myopathy, and 2.63 (95% CI 1.64–3.62) for unspecified congenital myopathies.

In the original article, there was a mistake in Table 1 as published. The number of cases in the reference Norwood et al. should be 41, not 18. The corrected Table 1 appears below.

The authors apologize for these errors and state that they do not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
