Since the publication of the above paper, the authors have noticed an error in the abstract section.
The sentence ‘Finally, compared with those with at least an average KIDMED score, children with low score were 75% less likely to have elevated DBP levels, whereas they exhibited a nonsignificant trend for lower SBP (by 29%) and lower overall BP levels (by 30%).’ is incorrect and should read as follows:
‘Finally, compared with those with low KIDMED score, children with at least an average score were 75% less likely to have elevated DBP levels, whereas they exhibited a nonsignificant trend for lower SBP (by 29%) and lower overall BP levels (by 30%).’
The authors would like to apologize for this mistake.
