Abstract
-
The value of 14.3% has been amended to 14.4% as the calculated value was 14.38% ~ 14.4%.
Introduction:
-
The value 9.7% was replaced with 15.5%, and the value 1.6% was replaced with 1.97% to align with the value from cited reference number 9 (Prosperini L, et al. 2021).
Results:
-
The value 69.6% was replaced with accurate value 69.8%.
Discussion:
-
Value 1.6% was altered to 1.4% which is reported as the minimum value for mortality in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients treated with disease modifying therapies (DMTs). This value refers to mortality rate for natalizumab-treated MS patients. This aligns with data taken from reference number 12 (Simpson-Yap S, et al.).
-
Value 21.5% was replaced with 20.9% as a maximum range value for hospitalization rate specific to general MS population. This aligns with data taken from reference number 12. (Simpson-Yap S, et al.).
-
The value 13.3% was changed to 11.5% as a minimum range value from the cited references for hospitalization rate in MS patients treated with DMTs. This value refers to hospitalization rate for natalizumab-treated MS patients. This aligns with data taken from reference number 12. (Simpson-Yap S, et al.).
-
The statement “Earlier studies found a higher risk of serious infections in patients with low IgG/IgM levels taking ocrelizumab” has been modified to “Earlier studies found an increased risk of serious infections in patients with low IgG levels taking ocrelizumab”, taken from the newly added reference number 36 Hauser SL, et al.
