Erratum

In the November 1994 issue of JID, there is a section on human papillomavirus consisting of an editorial and five articles. The editorial and each paper cite the others, but in the Reference lists, the page numbers are wrong due to an editorial error. Following are the correct citations:

Galloway DA. Editorial: navigating the descent into papillomavirus hell. J Infect Dis 1994; 170:1075–6.

Bernard HU, Chan SY, Manos MM, et al. Identification and assessment of known and novel human papillomaviruses by polymerase chain reaction amplification, restriction fragment length polymorphisms, nucleotide sequence, and phylogenetic algorithms. J Infect Dis 1994; 170:1077–85.

Ong CK, Bernard BU, Villa LL. Identification of genomic sequences of three novel human papillomavirus sequences in cervical smears of Amazonian Indians. J Infect Dis 1994; 170:1086–8.

Peyton CL, Wheeler CM. Identification of five novel human papillomavirus sequences in the New Mexico triethnic population. J Infect Dis 1994; 170:1089–92.

Peyton CL, Jansen AM, Wheeler CM, et al. A novel human papillomavirus sequence from an international cervical cancer study. J Infect Dis 1994; 170:1093–5.

Manos MM, Waldman J, Zhang TY, et al. Epidemiology and partial nucleotide sequence of four novel genital human papillomaviruses. J Infect Dis 1994; 170:1096–9.

Also, in the article by Bernard et al. (Bernard HU, Chan SY, Manos MM, et al. Identification and assessment of known and novel human papillomaviruses by polymerase chain reaction amplification, restriction fragment length polymorphisms, nucleotide sequence, and phylogenetic algorithms. J Infect Dis 1994; 170: 1077–85), in the first line of the text, “casually” should be “causally”:

Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are causally involved in the etiology of neoplastic lesions of cutaneous and mucosal epithelia [1].
