Analysis and Validation of a Diagnostic Nomogram for Predicting the Risk of Acute Respiratory Failure for Non-HIV Related Pneumocystis Jirovecii Pneumonia Patients [Corrigendum]

Bian W, Xin Y, Bao J, et al. Risk Manag Healthc Policy. 2024;17:2971—2980.

The authors have advised there is an error in Figure 2 on page 2976 of the published paper.

Due to an error that occurred inadvertently at the time of figure assembly the nomogram only included four factors whereas the correct version should include five. The variable NEUT was missed. The correct Figure 2 is as follows.

Figure 2 Nomogram of the predictive model for PCP. When using a nomogram, locate the position of each variable on the corresponding horizontal axis and draw a vertical line to the top score axis to determine the score for that variable. Then sum the scores of all variables and draw a line from the total score to the probability axis at the bottom of the nomogram to determine the predicted risk of ARF. Youth: age < 40 years; Middle-age: age 40–59 years; Old-age: age ≥ 60 years.

The authors apologize for this error.
