Correction: Combined Impact of Health Behaviours and Mortality in Men and Women: The EPIC-Norfolk Prospective Population Study

چکیده
An error was made with the cutoff vitamin C level reported in this paper (>50 mmol/l). The units should have been given in micromoles per litre, not millimoles per litre, for vitamin C. Throughout the manuscript, wherever >50 mmol/l is given as the cutoff, >50 micromol/l is the correct vitamin C level that should have been reported.
