The author requests to correct errors in the original article [1]. Area where it needs amendment are as follows.

1. In conclusion section of Abstract:

“This study confirms that MUAC can be used for both admitting and discharging criteria in CMAM programs with MUAC < 115 mm for admission and MUAC > 125 mm or at discharge (a higher discharge threshold could be used).”

Replaces

“This study confirms that MUAC can be used for both admitting and discharging criteria in CMAM programs with MUAC < 115 mm for admission and MUAC > = 115 mm or at discharge (a higher discharge threshold could be used).”

2. In Table 1:

All “MUAC > 115 mm” should be changed into “MUAC > 125 mm” under each of the discharge criteria column.

Superscript “a” above the “well” should be removed.

The legend under the table should be removed.
