Correction: Race/Ethnicity-Specific Association of Vitamin D and Global DNA Methylation: Cross-Sectional and Interventional Findings (PLoS ONE (2016) 11:4 (e0152849) DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0152849)

Abstract

There is an error in the fifth sentence of the fourth paragraph of the Discussion. The correct sentence is: However this is not unexpected since over 97% of the Caucasians were vitamin D sufficient, whereas 66% of African Americans were vitamin D deficient. There is an error in the caption for Fig 1, "Changes in global methylation in response to 16 week vitamin D3 supplementation (placebo, 600 IU/d, 2,000 IU/d, or 4,000 IU/d)." Please see the complete, correct Fig 1 caption here. (Figure Presented).
