The article entitled "Inverse Relationship
Between Fenfluramine-Induced
Prolactin Release and Blood Pressure in
Humans" by M.F. Muldoon
et al
(
Hypertension.
1998;32:972975) inadvertently
contained an error. In reexamining the
data, the authors discovered
an error in the comparisons of correlation
coefficients. The
values of the reported correlations are correct
(Table 1),
but the differences in these coefficients were incorrectly
reported
to be statistically significant. Thus, the last sentence of
the second paragraph of the Results section should read: "The
difference in correlations between blacks and whites was
not
statistically significant for either systolic or diastolic BP."
