The authors noted that there is a small typographical error in Table 4 of this article.

Table 4 Risk for newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes according to carbohydrate, glycaemic load and dietary fibre*

(Unadjusted and adjusted odds ratios and 95 % confidence intervals)

T2DM, type 2 diabetes mellitus.

* The adjusted model controlled for age (years in quintiles), sex (males, females), BMI (continuous), family history of diabetes (three categories), cigarette smoking (categorised as non-smokers and habitual smokers), alcohol (never, past and current consumers), physical activity (strenuous, no exercise, sedentary) and income in Indian rupees ( < 2000, 2000–5000, >5000–10 000, >10 000). There was additional adjustment for dietary fibre (for the carbohydrate and glycaemic load models) and for carbohydrate (for the fibre model).

Tests for linear trend were conducted across increasing categories by treating the medians of intake in categories as continuous variables.

Energy adjusted using the residual method.

The value for the ‘percentage of newly diagnosed T2DM’ in the 4th quartile of Glycemic Load should be 11·7 % and not ‘2·6 %’.

The corrected table is supplied below.
