Erratum

In the article "Metformin Administration versus Laparoscopic Ovarian Diathermy in Clomiphene Citrate-Resistant Women with Polycyctic Ovary Syndrome: A Prospective Parallel Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Trial" by S. Palomba, F. Orio Jr., L. G. Nardo, A. Falbo, T. Russo, D. Corea, P. Doldo, G. Lombardi, A. Tolino, A. Colao, and F. Zullo (The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism 89:4801–4809), errors appear in one author’s institutional affiliation and in data reported in Tables 2 and 3.

On the title page (page 4801), the correct affiliation of Dr. Luciano Giovanni Nardo is Department of Obstetrics and Gyneacology, Wexham Park Hospital, Slough, UK.

In the Abstract (page 4801, lines 18–20), the correct data for ovulation rate in group B is 53.2%, whereas the correct data for pregnancy, abortion, and live-birth rates for group A are 21.8%, 9.3%, and 86.0%, respectively.

In Results (page 4805, right column, lines 2–16), the correct data are: 197 as total number of cycles in group A; 53.2% as ovulation rate in group B, and 21.8%, 9.3%, and 86.0% as pregnancy, abortion, and live-birth rates for group A, respectively; 79.6% (43/54) as cumulative pregnancy rate for group A; 3 of 11 as patients of group A having regular ovulatory menstrual cycles at the end of the study. In the Table 2 (page 4805), the correct data are 25/54 (46.3), 23/46 (50.0), 20/36 (55.6), 17/26 (65.4), 13/20 (65.0), 10/15 (66.7) for the ovulation rates of group A during the six cycles of treatment, while for the pregnancy rates of group A during the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th cycle the respective correct data are 10/36 (27.8), 6/26 (23.1), 5/20 (25.0), and 4/15 (26.7); all comparisons between two groups are not significant. In the Table 3 (page 4805), the correct data are 108/197 (54.8), 43/197 (21.8), 4/43 (9.4), and 37/43 (86.0), respectively, for ovulation, pregnancy, abortion, and live-birth rates in group A.

The authors regret the errors.

*The Editors appreciated the assistance of E. M. Kolibianakis, E. G. Papanikolaou, and B. C. Tarlatzis for bringing these errors to the Journal and authors’ attention.
