In the published article, Anwar, S., Arsalan, S.A., Zafar, H., Ahmed, A., Gillani, S.A. & Hanif, A., 2022, 'Effects of breathing re-education on endurance, strength of deep neck flexors and pulmonary function in patients with chronic neck pain: A randomised controlled trial', South African Journal of Physiotherapy 78(1), a1611. https://doi.org/10.4102/sajp.v78i1.1611, there was an error regarding the affiliations for the authors. Instead of:
'Authors:

In addition, there was an error on page 2. The following paragraph is updated as it was incorrectly formulated:
The original incorrect wording:
Here, n = 34 in each group, Z1-α/2 = standardised level of significance = 95% = 1.96, Z1-β = Power of test = 80% = 1.28, µ1 = Mean in control group = 4.60, µ2 = Mean in physiotherapy group = 5.40, δ12 = standard deviation in control group = 0.84, δ22 = standard deviation in physiotherapy group = 0.59. The primary outcome used to estimate sample size was vital capacity (VC) (Duymaz 2019). A difference of 0.5 in the standard deviation was regarded as a meaningful change (Hislop et al. 2014).
The revised and updated wording:
Here, n = 15 in each group, Z1-α/2 = standardised level of significance = 95% = 1.96, Z1-β = power of test = 80% = 1.28, µ1 = mean in control group = 4.60, µ2 = mean in physiotherapy group = 5.40, δ12 = standard deviation in control group = 0.84, δ22 = standard deviation in physiotherapy group = 0.59. The primary outcome used to estimate sample size was vital capacity (VC) (Duymaz 2019). A difference of 0.5 in the standard deviation was regarded as a meaningful change (Hislop et al. 2014).
The authors apologise for these errors. The corrections do not change the study's findings of significance or overall interpretation of the study's results or the scientific conclusions of the article in any way.
