In the original publication of the article [1], the author has noticed the below two errors after publication.

  • The figure legends for Figs. 1 and 2 are the wrong way round.

  • The ‘number of cases’ in Fig. 2 in the published manuscript is incorrect (n = 121), whereas the newer version is correct and corresponds with the content of the article (n = 130).

The original article has been corrected.
