A Correction on
Association between dietary intake and the expression of clock genes in adults: a brief report
by Lages, M., Barros, R., Ferreira-Marques, M., Correia, J., Caseiro, A., Guarino, M. P., and Carmo-Silva, S. (2025). Front. Nutr. 12:1663559. doi: 10.3389/fnut.2025.1663559
There was an error in the last sentence of the section Results, Paragraph One:
The sentence read as “ No significant differences were found in skeletal muscle mass or waist circumference.” The corrected paragraph appears below.
“This observational study included 19 participants (94.7% female) with a mean age of 43.4 ± 16.05 years (min: 20 years; max: 69 years). Participants were clustered according to their BMI into the healthy group and the overweight/obesity group. The overweight/obesity group showed significantly more comorbidities (p < 0.001) and higher BMI, fat mass, waist circumference and visceral adipose tissue (p < 0.01) (Table 1). Lipid profiles also differed significantly, with the overweight/obesity group showing higher total cholesterol, LDL-C, and triglycerides (p < 0.05), but no difference in HDL-C (p = 0.912). No significant differences were found in skeletal muscle mass and glucose levels.”
