Excerpt

The authors regret that the statistical analysis methods used in this article [1] to assess density-dependence between different types of trap (described in the third paragraph of the Statistical analysis section and in Supplementary Information S1) are invalid. However, re-analysis with a corrected method, described below, produced similar results to those obtained using the invalid method. Consequently, our conclusions regarding density-dependence are unchanged. …

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
