In Table 1, the values “Gender of infant” are incorrectly swapped. The first value under “Gender of infant” should be Female and the second value should be Male. Please see the corrected Table 1 here.

In the Results, the last sentence of the fourth paragraph is incorrect. The correct sentence is: In models stratified by fetal gender, the inverse association between ∑DEHP and CRP was stronger in females (%Δ = -9.05, 95% CI = -17.1, -0.27) compared to males (%Δ = -1.06, 95% CI = -7.98, 6.39) and significant positive associations between MiBP and MEP and CRP were observed in females but not in males.
