CORRIGENDUM: Circulating miR-122-5p/miR-133b Ratio Is a Specific Early Prognostic Biomarker in Acute Myocardial Infarction

The authors apologize for the errors detected in Figure 2. In the panel G, the Y-axis values were incorrectly placed.

The corrected Figure 2 is shown below.

Figure 2.

Circulating micro RNA (miRNA) levels at the time of cardiac catheterization of a total cohort of 142 selected ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients compared with 18 healthy controls, and statistical analysis of selected circulating miRNA levels. P-values as evaluated with the Student’s t-test are shown, and the data in each group are summarized as median with interquartile range representation. MiRNA levels were determined by by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and expressed as logarithmic values of 2^–∆Ct using a synthetic RNA spike as a normalizer. Circulating levels of: (A) miR-1-3p; (B) miR-122-5p; (C) miR-133a-3p; (D) miR-133b; (E) miR-208b-3p; and (F) miR-499a-5p. (G) Heatmap plot of the Pearson’s correlation of the circulating levels of the analyzed miRNAs with each other at the time of angioplasty. (H) Scree plot representation of the principal component analysis model, depicting the Eigenvalues and cumulative percentage of variance attributable to each circulating miRNA.
