CorrectionGochee PA, Powell LW, Cullen DJ, Du Sart D, Rossi E, and Olynyk JK. A population-based study of the biochemical and clinical expression ofthe H63D hemochromatosis mutation. Gastroenterology 2002;122:646–651.

In reviewing Table 2 from the above article, the authors discovered that the second column heading was incorrect. The corrected Table 2appears below:
