Abstract

The authors and the JAOA regret errors that appeared in the following article: Esmer G, Blum J, Rulf J, Pier J. Mindfulness-based stress reduction for failed back surgery syndrome: a randomized controlled trial. J Am Osteopath Assoc. 2010;110(11):646-652. In Table 1, the units of measure for height and weight were incorrectly labeled as cm and kg, respectively. The labels for these items should have appeared as in and lb. Also, in Table 2, the clinical significance of the Analgesic Medication Log was incorrectly reported as +1. It should have appeared as -1. These changes will be made to the full text and PDF versions online. In addition, the AOA Department of Quality and Research regrets errors that appeared in the following abstracts: Davidovich A, Axis J, Hyink D, Amsler K. Src family kinases in research development [abstract B7]. J Am Osteopath Assoc. 2010;110(8):462. ChegwiddenWR, SpencerIM. Acetazolamide (diamox) inhibits the growth of human prostatic adenocarcinoma cells in culture [abstract B36]. J Am Osteopath Assoc. 2010;110(8):476. In abstract B7, Student Doctor Davidovich’s first name was incorrectly spelled as Alesander instead of Alexander. In abstract B36, the institutional affiliation of Sheffield Hallam University in South Yorkshire, England, pertains only to Dr Spencer. Dr Chegwidden’s institutional affiliation was inadvertently omitted. His affiliation should have appeared as the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine in Erie, Pennsylvania. These changes will be made to the full text and PDF versions online.
