Data are expressed as mean and standard deviation and median and range. p < 0.05.

eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; BP, blood pressure; RAS, renin-angiotensin system.

aAnalysis was based on 41 patients without adverse pregnancy history and 47 patients with adverse pregnancy history.

After publication of the article, the authors noted 2 errors in Table 1. Specifically, the entry “Proteinuria category >2” for the “With adverse pregnancy history” group was incorrectly listed as 5.66% and should be corrected to 5.6% (3/54). The overall of “C1/2” in the “Oxford classification” was incorrectly given as 29 (32.9) and should be corrected to 28 (31.8).

The corrected Table 1 is shown here.
