A corrigendum on
Arsenic in drinking water and incidences of leukemia and lymphoma: Implication for its dual effects in carcinogenicity

by Lin, M.-H., Li, C.-Y., Cheng, Y.-Y., and Guo, H.-R. (2022). Front. Public Health 10:863882. doi: 10.3389/fpubh.2022.863882

In the published article, there was an error in part of the title. Instead of “Implication for its dural effects in carcinogenicity” it should read “Implication for its dual effects in carcinogenicity.” The corrected full title appears below:

“Arsenic in drinking water and incidences of leukemia and lymphoma: Implication for its dual effects in carcinogenicity”

A correction has been made to the Abstract. The sentence previously stated:

“In terms of time trends, the SIRs in both lymphoma and leukemia showed decreasing trends in both sexes, while exposure to arsenic in drinking water also decreased over time.”

The corrected sentence appears below:

“In terms of time trends, the SIRs in both lymphoma and leukemia showed increasing trends in both sexes, while exposure to arsenic in drinking water decreased over time.”

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