Corrigendum: Immune Responses to Gametocyte Antigens in a Malaria Endemic Population—The African falciparum Context: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (Frontiers in Immunology, (2019), 10, 10.3389/fimmu.2019.02480)

Abstract

In the original article, there were errors in Tables 1, 2 and 3, and to the text. In Table 1, one of the two study sites from Amoah et al.’s study (Parasites & Vectors, 2018) was erroneously excluded from the table hence the study was presented as one site, the age range of study participants from the Stone et al. (Nature Communications, 2018) study site “Hauts-Bassins (Burkina Faso)” was mistakenly indicated as “2–74” instead of “5–14” years and the reference for Skinner et al. given as “35” instead of “33”. These errors have been corrected and the amended table appears in this article. Furthermore, owing to the omission of the study site from Amoah et al.’s study, the figures quoted in the text on the overall number of study sites and the total number of study sites reporting seroprevalence to Pfs230 and Pfs48/45 were incorrect. The total number of study sites for Pfs230 was given as “14” instead of “15” and for Pfs48/45 given as “14” instead of “13”. Also, we inadvertently provided the total number of individual study locations (“23”) instead of the study sites—based on administrative region—(“17”) when providing a summary of the 12 studies that we included in the analysis. In addition, the citation for “Amoah et al.” was was incorrectly cited as “Acquah et al.” in the Results section, sub-section Pfs230, Seroprevalence, Paragraph 1. These errors have been corrected and amendments made to the relevant result sections, given below. Results section, sub-section Study.
