In the published article, there was an error made in correctly attributing four references. A correction has been made to Diagnosis of BPPV, paragraphs 1 and 2. This sentence previously stated:

“Suspicion of central positional vertigo may be raised with an absence of latency or fatigability of nystagmus, a lack of marked vertigo, pure upbeat or downbeat nystagmus, or as a lack of responsiveness to CRM (31). Therefore, it is recommended that a diagnosis of BPPV can only be made if the supine roll maneuver Semont or Dix-Hallpike tests elicit nystagmus that is consistent with BPPV; any features of the nystagmus not consistent with BPPV should raise suspicion of central pathology and warrant further investigation (31).

There is increasing evidence about the association between vestibular migraine (VM) and BPPV (29). Despite their similarities, BPPV can be differentiated from VM by the direction of the nystagmus and the duration of the symptoms (32, 33). Although there is generally no positional nystagmus in VM, pseudo-BPPV is a complex mix of positional, atypical positional and non-positional vertigo accompanied by migraine features; the ability to distinguish pseudo-BPPV from other vertigo disease has great clinical significance for treatment (29).”

The corrected sentence appears below:
