Corrections to published manuscripts

JCI Insight considers corrections at the discretion of the editors. Requests are reviewed by our editors and addressed according to the list below. All requests for corrections can be sent to corrections@insight.the-jci.org.

Of note:

• Published corrections are only made to final versions of manuscripts, not In Press Previews (IPPs). All corrections to IPPs are addressed in the proof of the manuscript. 
• Corrections must be initiated by authors of the manuscript, not readers. 

Correction types

• Version change - Reserved for changes that will not alter data or interpretation, e.g., typos. Such changes are made to the published manuscript online and the history is updated.
• Corrigenda - Corrigenda alert readers to errors that were introduced by the authors that affect data figures and tables, dramatically alter the author list, among other changes that readers should be alerted to. These are published with their own DOI, connected online with the original article, and indexed in PubMed.
• Errata - Errata are used to alert readers to errors that were introduced by the journal that result in changes of the data figures, tables, and/or methods. These are published with their own DOI, connected online with the original article, and indexed in PubMed.
• Expression of concern - Expressions of concern alert readers to potential errors/issues that may affect the of a study and are often under institutional investigation before a a formal correction or retraction is issued. These are published with their own DOI, connected online with the original article, and indexed in PubMed.
• Retractions - Retractions alert readers to errors/issues that are felt to invalidate the results of a study. Due to the serious nature of these concerns, the issues have likely  been investigated by the authors’ institute and the recommendation comes from the ORI. These are published with their own DOI, connected online with the original article, and indexed in PubMed.
