Correction
In the May 2000 issue of
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, in the article by Meirhaeghe et al (
Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol. 2000:20:13301334.), there was an erroneous
inversion regarding the allele designation. The allele frequencies
are 0.6 for the G (wild-type) and 0.4 for the A allele and not
the opposite as previously written. Therefore, in the text and
tables, the readers should read "G" instead of "A" and conversely.
It is the A allele that is associated with higher plasma triglyceride
levels in women. The authors regret the inconvenience that this
error has caused.
