In the article by Kato et al., which published in the May 2019 issue of PAIN ® , the authors note that they made an error in Figure 3 , noting the mirogabalin dose as ‘QD’, rather than the correct ‘per day’. The corrected figure and caption is shown below:
Figure 3.: Average daily pain score shown as the time course of the least squares mean with standard error. Data are presented for the modified intent-to-treat analysis set. The multiple imputation method was applied using the pattern mixture model with different shift parameters based on reason for discontinuation. The mixed-effect model with repeated measures was performed for the imputed data sets, including treatment, week, and treatment-by-week as fixed effects; week as a repeated measure; and baseline ADPS as a covariate. ADPS, average daily pain score.
The authors apologize for the error.
