Erratum to: Artemether-lumefantrine treatment of uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria: a systematic review and meta-analysis of day 7 lumefantrine concentrations and therapeutic response using individual patient data

The Original Article was published on 18 September 2015

Erratum

After publication of the original article [1], it came to the authors’ attention that there is an error in the originally-published version of Fig. 2. The labelling of the x-axis for Fig. 2 is not correct. The last two values of the x-axis should read: “5-11” instead of “5”, and “12+” instead of “6”.

Fig. 2
figure 1

Measured day 7 lumefantrine concentrations in patients given supervised treatment with the recommended six-dose artemether-lumefantrine regimen, by age and nutrition status. Concentrations are dose-adjusted and scaled for a total dose of 72 mg/kg (after excluding patients with quantifiable lumefantrine concentrations pre-treatment). Outside values are not shown

The correct version of Fig. 2 is published in this erratum.
