Abstract
CORRECTION TO ARTICLE PUBLISHED IN SEPTEMBER 2008
It has been brought to our attention that there is an error in our paper 1 on French colorectal cancer screening pilot programme: results of the first round.
In several places in this paper, ademona and cancer detection rates, which were calculated per 1000, were presented erroneously as percentages (%) rather than ‰.
The correction, replacing the symbol % with a ‰ should be made in the following places:
P 143 (Abstract: Results) 2.3‰, 3.4‰ and 1.4‰
P 146 (Results, column one, paragraph beginning ‘Results were available…’ from line 13) 7.2‰, 4.2‰, 10.9‰, 2.3‰, 2.4‰, 1.4‰, 3.4‰, 4.8‰, 10.4‰, 0.8‰, and 4.3‰
P 146 (Table 3, headings columns 6 and 8) Adenoma rate per 1000 screened people (‰), and Cancer detected rate per 1000 screened people (‰).
P 147 (column 1, in the last 12 lines) 2.8‰, 2.1‰, 1.63‰, and 1.7‰
P 147 (column 1 last paragraph) 7.2‰, 6.9‰, 9.2‰, 6.7‰, and 11.6‰
P 147 (column 2 line 1) 11.4‰ and 16.8‰
