Abstract

Following publication of the original article [1], we were notified that the last sentence in the Results section in the Abstract was incorrect. Originally published sentence: However, low trough levels were associated with a non-signifcant trend towards a lower risk of treatment failure [OR = 0.89 (95% CI 0.73–1.10), p = 0.28] and were signifcantly associated with reduced risk of all-cause mortality [OR = 0.74 (95% CI 0.62–0.90), p = 0.002]. Corrected sentence: However, lower trough levels were significantly associated with reduced microbial clearance [OR = 0.47 (95% CI 0.23–0.96), p = 0.04]. Additionally, low trough levels showed a non-significant trend toward a lower risk of treatment failure [OR = 0.89 (95% CI 0.73–1.10), p = 0.28] but were significantly associated with a reduced risk of all-cause mortality [OR = 0.74 (95% CI 0.62–0.90), p = 0.002]. The original article has been corrected.
