Correction: Diabetes management
Information was omitted from Table 1 on page 596 of the article, Makin V, Lansang MC. Diabetes management: beyond hemoglobin A1c (Cleve Clin J Med 2019; 86[9]:595–600, doi:10.3949/ccjm.86a.18031).
The sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors pose a low risk of hypoglyemia, and that should have been noted in the table. The corrected table appears below and online.

Correction: Subclinical hypothyroidism
In Azim S, Nasr C, “Subclinical hypothyroidism: When to treat,” Cleve Clin J Med 2019; 86(2):101–110, on page 103, in the section “Subclinical hypothyroidism can resolve or progress,” the sentence “The rate of progression to overt hypothyroidism is estimated to be 33% to 35% over 10 to 20 years of follow-up” contained an error. The correct rate of progression is 33% to 55%. This error has been corrected online.

Correction: Hypertension guidelines
In Aleyadeh W, Hutt-Centeno E, Ahmed HM, Shah NP. Hypertension guidelines: treat patients, not numbers. Cleve Clin J Med 2019; 86(1):47–56. doi:10.3949/ccjm.86a.18027, on page 50, the following statement was incorrect: “In 2017, the American College of Physicians (ACP) and the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) recommended a relaxed systolic blood pressure target, ie, below 150 mm Hg, for adults over age 60, but a tighter goal of less than 130 mm Hg for the same age group if they have transient ischemic attack, stroke, or high cardiovascular risk.9” In fact, the ACP and AAFP recommended a tighter goal of less than 140 mm Hg for this higher-risk group. This has been corrected online.
