A Corrigendum on
Association Between Night-Shift Work and Cancer Risk: Updated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

by Dun, A., Zhao, X., Jin, X., Wei, T., Gao, X., Wang, Y., et al. (2018). Front. Oncol. 10:1006. doi: 10.3389/fonc.2020.01006

In our recently published article we noticed that we presented incorrect information in Table 1. A lot of original studies included in our meta-analysis reported stratified estimates of the association between night-shift work and cancer risk; however, we only presented one stratification of the estimates for each study in Table 1. In addition, the number of cases in each study was incorrect. Such errors do not exist in our original dataset of meta-analysis and so the pooled results are not influenced. The corrected Table 1 appears below.
