Erratum to: Modified Atkins diet in advanced malignancies—final results of a safety and feasibility trial within the Veterans Affairs Pittsburgh Healthcare System
Nutrition & Metabolism volume 13, Article number: 61 (2016)
The Original Article was published on 12 August 2016
Erratum
After publication of the original article [1], the author found that a word had been incorrectly used in the article body in the paragraph entitled ‘Effect on the tumor’ in the ‘Results’ section:
“The fourth patient, patient 17, an 84 year old with chemo-naive stage IV squamous cell lung carcinoma dieted until 16 weeks and finished the trial with stable disease while achieving excellent ketosis (+2).”
The word “squamous” should be “adenocarcinoma”. Therefore the correct sentence should read “The fourth patient, patient 17, an 84 year old with chemo-naive stage IV adenocarcinoma cell lung carcinoma dieted until 16 weeks and finished the trial with stable disease while achieving excellent ketosis (+2).”
