Correction

Following the publication of this article [1], the authors reported a typesetting error in Table 1 that resulted in missing asterisks. This correction shows both the incorrect and correct versions of Table 1, and Table 1 has also been corrected in the original article. The incorrect version is: Comparison of covariates, hand and cognitive variables among age categories (N = 326) Values are expressed as mean ± SD TMIG-IC Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology - Index of Competence, GDS Geriatric Depression Scale, MMSE Mini-Mental State Examination, TMT Trail Making Test Bonferroni correction for post-hoc tests: *p<0.008 vs. 60-64; †p<0.008 vs. 65-69; ‡p<0.008 vs. 70-74 aThe Chi-square test was performed bThe total number of subjects analyzed was 207 The correct version is: Comparison of covariates, hand and cognitive variables among age categories (N = 326) Values are expressed as mean ± SD TMIG-IC Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology - Index of Competence, GDS Geriatric Depression Scale, MMSE Mini-Mental State Examination, TMT Trail Making Test Bonferroni correction for post-hoc tests: *p<0.008 vs. 60-64; †p<0.008 vs. 65-69; ‡p<0.008 vs. 70-74 aThe Chi-square test was performed bThe total number of subjects analyzed was 207
