After the publication of our December 2007 supplement, “Health-related Quality of Life in Rheumatoid Arthritis,” the Editors learned that several authors were not given the opportunity to review the final proofs of their manuscripts. As a result, the following errors were subsequently identified. First, the co-author’s name was inadvertently omitted from the Introduction. The correct byline for the Introduction should read: Daniel E. Furst, MD, and Dinesh Khanna, MD.
Second, in the article “Generic Quality-of-life Assessment in Rheumatoid Arthritis,” by Tugwell, et al (Am J Manag Care. 2007;13[suppl 9]:S224-S236), some of the indicators for Health Dimension and Psychometric Properties were missing from Table 1; some data in Table 3 were incorrect; and the reference numbers in Figures 1a and 1b were misnumbered. The corrected tables and figures appear on the following pages (see pages 235-238).
Finally, due to the extent of the errors in the article by Strand et al, “Improved Health-related Quality of Life With Effective Disease-modifying Antirheumatic Drugs: Evidence From Randomized Controlled Trials,” we are reprinting a corrected version of this article in this issue (see pages 239-253).
