Potential Limitations of the World Health Organization Criteria for Nonsevere Tuberculosis in Children in a Low Prevalence, High-resource Setting: ERRATUM

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal 45(5):p 399-404, May 2026. | DOI: 10.1097/INF.0000000000005081 The article “Potential Limitations of the World Health Organization Criteria for Nonsevere Tuberculosis in Children in a Low Prevalence, High-resource Setting” that appeared on pages 399-404 of the May 2026 issue of The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, an error occurred in the second sentence of the results section of the abstract. The correct sentence should read “Compared with children with severe TBD (n = 55; 34.6%), children with nonsevere TBD were significantly more commonly asymptomatic (16.4% vs. 74.0%; P ≤ 0.0001), more commonly detected by TB screening (14.6% vs. 74.0%; P ≤ 0.0001) and less commonly microbiologically-confirmed (85.5% vs. 36.5%; P ≤ 0.0001).”
