In the article by Cappuccio et al. [1], the authors have noted that Table 1 was incorrectly published. The correct table is shown below:

TABLE 1 - Differences in measured (by 24-h urine collection) and estimated (by spot urine collections with INTERSALT without K formula) sodium intake in six population studies.
Ref. Population Sample size (n) Measured 24-h UNa (SD) g/day Estimated 24-h UNa by INTERSALT (SD) g/day
Cogswell et al. [4] USA 339 3.32 (1.44) 3.16 (0.89)a
Peng et al. [5] Chinese (PURE) 116 6.34 (2.47) 3.54 (0.87)a
