The original version of this article unfortunately contained a small error on pages 722-723 of the manuscript (paragraph “Major EDC”). “Multivariate analysis of EDC parameter HRs revealed BPS (HR 10.5, 95% CI 3.6–30.3, p < 0.001), donor age (HR 2.0, 95% CI 1.1–3.4, p = 0.03), and CIT (HR 2.0, 95% CI 1.1–3.8, p = 0.024) as independent predictive factors of 3-year graft failure following LT (Table 3). These parameters were regarded as maEDC, and their effects on graft and patient survival were analyzed.”

The corrected sentence is shown below:

  • “Multivariate analysis of EDC parameter HRs revealed BPS (HR 8,7, 95% CI 3.0–25.3, p < 0.001), donor age (HR 2.0, 95% CI 1.1–3.8, p = 0.03), and CIT (HR 2.0, 95% CI 1.1–3.8, p = 0.024) as independent predictive factors of 3-year graft failure following LT (Table 3). These parameters were regarded as maEDC, and their effects on graft and patient survival were analyzed."

The original article has been corrected.
