In the Original Investigation titled “Sex Differences in the Pattern of Patient Referrals to Male and Female Surgeons,” published in the November 10, 2021, issue of JAMA Surgery, an incorrect term was used in the Referral Homophily subsection of the Results section. The third paragraph’s first sentence should have ended with physicians instead of surgeons. The full sentence should read as follows: “Post hoc exploratory analysis limited to only those referrals associated with diagnostic codes related to breast issues suggested inbreeding homophily among female physicians, whereby female surgeons accounted for 26.0% of surgeons seeing patients with breast issues but received 30.7% of referrals from female physicians.” This article was corrected online.

结果中的术语不正确

在 2021 年 11 月 10 日出版的 JAMA Surgery 杂志上发表的题为“患者转诊给男性和女性外科医生模式中的性别差异”的原始调查中，结果部分的转诊同质性小节使用了不正确的术语。第三段的第一句话应该以医生而不是外科医生结尾。完整的句子应如下所示：“事后探索性分析仅限于那些与乳房问题相关的诊断代码相关的转诊，这表明女性医生之间存在近亲同源性，其中女性外科医生占看到乳房问题患者的外科医生的 26.0%，但接受了 30.7女性医生转诊的百分比。” 这篇文章在线更正。
