Correction: Incident CTS in a large pooled cohort study: associations obtained by a Job Exposure Matrix versus associations obtained from observed exposures

Dale AM, Ekenga CC, Buckner-Petty S, et al. Incident CTS in a large pooled cohort study: associations obtained by a Job Exposure Matrix versus associations obtained from observed exposures. Occup Environ Med 2018;75:501–6.

There are incorrect values reported in the results section, and in tables 2 and 3 of this paper. The corrected values are slight and do not affect the implications of the results in the study. Below are the specific corrections to the text as well as the corrected tables.

DISTRIBUTION OF PHYSICAL EXPOSURES

Table 2 shows the distribution of time-weighted exposures among study participants. The median for the O*NET-derived strength variables indicated modest levels of job requirement for dynamic strength (median = 2.12; Interquartile range (IQR) = 0.37 on a 0–7 point scale) with an anchor of "use pruning shears to trim a bush" and static strength (median = 2.50; IQR = 0.50 on a 0–7...
