Corrigendum to: Ramune Jacobsen, Peder Frederiksen and Berit L. Heitmann. December 2015. Exposure to sunshine early in life prevented development of type 1 diabetes in Danish boys. Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism. Volume 29, Issue 4, pages 417–424 (DOI: 10.1515/jpem-2015-0393):

All the amounts of sunshine hours reported in the article should be corrected by dividing the reported numbers by 10 [1]. The correct numbers are provided below.

Sunshine hours during entire gestation ranged from 681.2 to 1400.7, with mean (SD) being 1055.6 (179.28), and median being 1074.3. The range, mean (SD) and median figures for sunshine hours during the first (1), second (2) and third (3) gestational trimesters were: (1) range: 91.8–718.0, mean (SD): 353.8 (174.50), median: 325.6, (2) range: 91.8–718.0, mean (SD): 345.5 (167.76), median: 296.7, (3) range: 91.8–718.9), mean (SD): 356.0 (167.12), median: 345.8. Gestational sunshine hours varied by month of birth and, to a lesser extent, by year of birth of the individual (Figures 1–4). Sunshine hours during the first year of life ranged from 1220.2 to 1718.2, with mean (SD) being 1438.4 (122.34), and median being 1433.9. First year sunshine hours varied by year of birth and, to a lesser extent, by month of birth of the individual (Figure 5).
