Following publication of the original article [1], the authors identified an error in Table 3. In Table 3, column 8, the heading is “Positive agreement”. It should be “Absolute agreement” and the last column was wrong both in heading and in contents. The changes do not have impact on the interpretation of our data, discussion and conclusions.
