Text Correction

In the published article, there was an error. In methods section of the abstract, an incorrect study period was indicated. However, the correct one was already reported in the in main body of the manuscript (Material and methods section).

A correction has been made to abstract, methods. This sentence previously stated: “A prospective cohort study was performed at the University of Naples from June 2022 to December 2022”.

The corrected sentence appears below:

“A prospective cohort study was performed at the University of Naples from October 2022 and February 2023”.

Error in Figure/Table

In the published article, Figure 2 and Table 5 reported errors. In details, in Figure 2A a color label association error was made. Table 5 showed an error in data on Firmicutes/Lactobacillaceae presented as absolute value and not as a percentage. The corrected Figure 2 and Table 5 and its caption appear below.

Relative abundance of species between two analyzed groups. Relative abundance is the percent composition of an organism of a particular kind relative to the total number of organisms in the area.

Comparison between Group A (pregnant patients) and Group B (no pregnant patients).

Phylum Family Group A % Group B % P-value
Firmicutes Lactobacillaceae 15 40 0.05
Firmicutes Staphilococcaceae 8 35 0.034
Proteobacteria Enterobacteriaceae 60 100 <0.001
Actinobacteria Bifidobacteriaceae Corynebacteriaceae Microbacteriaceae 0 17* 0.037

Data are presented as relative prevalence among the families of the phylum (%). *Relative prevalence with respect to the distribution of the Phylum.

Error in Table Legend

In the published article, there was an error in the legend for Table 5 as published.

The legend “ Comparison between Group A (pregnant patients) and Group B (no pregnant patients)” does not properly match the contents.

The corrected legend appears below:

Comparison between Group A (pregnant patients) and Group B (no pregnant patients). Data are presented as relative prevalence among the families of the phylum (%). *Relative prevalence with respect to the distribution of the Phylum.
