Abstract
Corrigendum to A North American perspective of content and quality of websites in the English language on childhood-onset lupus erythematosus by C Cutler et al. Published in Lupus (2018) 27, 762–770. DOI: 10.1177/0961203317746246.
The authors wish to highlight the following correction. The subheading in Table 5 should read Content criteria and not DISCERN criteria. As well, the numbering of the table should read 1–15.
Mean (SD) Website content ratings by type of site The 9 websites with a mean DISCERN score of 50 or greater were further evaluated by 2 pediatric rheumatologists for quality of content. Websites were evaluated as a whole and within their author affiliation groups for each of the 14 criteria.
