Correction: Development of risk score for predicting 3-year incidence of type 2 diabetes: Japan epidemiology collaboration on occupational health study(PLoS ONE (2015) 10:11 (e0142779) DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0142779)

Abstract

There are errors present in the values presented in Table 5. Table 5 shows the observed probability. The corrected version of Table 5 now shows the estimated probability. The development and validation of the models is presented in Tables 2–4 and Figs 1–2 and these aspects of the work stand unaffected. The final "tool" that clinicians would be using is Table 5 to show the predicted probability that their patient with a given score will develop diabetes over the next 3 years. This is the culmination of the modeling work and has been reported incorrectly in the original publication. Please see the corrected Table 5 here. The twenty-sixth author’s name appears incorrectly. The correct name is: Huanhuan Hu. There are several text errors throughout the article. The errors and corrections are as follows: The last line of the Results paragraph of the Abstract section should read: Participants with a noninvasive score of 15 and invasive score of 18 were projected to have >20% and >50% risk, respectively, of developing type 2 diabetes within 3 years. The last two lines of the sixth paragraph of the Results section should read: In the invasive model including both FPG and HbA1c, participants with a score of 0 to 10 (77.4% of total participants), 11 to 12 (10.5%), 13 to 14 (6.9%), and 15 to 17 (5.0%) had less than 5%, 5 to <10%, 10 to <20%, and 20 to <50% risk of incident type 2 diabetes, respectively. Those with a score of 18 (0.2% of total participants) had >50% risk.
