After the publication of this article [1], it came to our attention that some of the data presented had been published previously [2]. In this study [2], HIV-infected patients having persistent fever diagnosed of at least one infectious etiology were selected to determine and describe several common opportunistic infections in HIV/AIDS patients. The total number of participants was 182. This information along with the relevant citation has now been added to the updated version.
In our Discussion section the sentence
This result was similar to the results of a study in Thailand (61.0% and 39.0%, respectively) [10], and a previous study in Vietnam (76.8% and 23.2%, respectively) [16].
should read:
