Correction
Illustration of QUIN-immunopositive cell densities. a) Depressed patients had increased QUIN-immunopositive cell densities in the sACC and the aMCC but not in the pACC. b) MDD patients showed the highest QUIN-immunoreactive cell counts in the sACC and the aMCC compared to BD and control cases. No diagnostic subgroup-dependent differences were observed in the pACC. Annotation: The box plots show the median, interquartile range, sample minimum and sample maximum, * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01.
The interpretation of results and the conclusions drawn are not affected as the level of significance is the same (sACC: P< 0.01 and aMCC: P< 0.05). Accordingly, the proper summary of results in the abstract and results section is:
"Depressed patients had a significantly increased density of QUIN-positive cells in the sACC (P= 0.006) and the aMCC (P= 0.043) compared to controls."
The authors apologize for this inadvertence and any inconvenience caused.
