Hyperhomocysteinemia as a Risk Factor for Deep-Vein Thrombosis (Correspondence, N Engl J Med 1996:335;974 - 976) . In Table 1, on page 975, the heading “Homocysteine Level” should have been “Hyperhomocysteinemia.” The sentence beginning in the second line of the table footnote should have read, “The 95th percentiles were 18.8 μmol per liter in the fasting state and an increase of 29.9 μmol per liter after methionine loading.” The next sentence should have read, “The 97.5th percentiles were 24.1 μmol per liter in the fasting state and an increase of 34.2 μmol per liter after methionine loading.”
