Mind the Gap (Clinical Problem-Solving, N Engl J Med 2003:349;1465 - 1469) . On page 1466, lines 6 through 8 of the third paragraph in the left-hand column, the sentence beginning, “In the absence of hyperglycemia or azotemia that could account for the osmolal gap” warrants correction. Neither hyperglycemia nor azotemia could contribute to the osmolal gap. On page 1469, lines 3 through 6 of the partial paragraph in the right-hand column should have read, “Levels of lipoprotein X can be as high as several thousand milligrams per deciliter of serum,” rather than “Levels of lipoprotein X can be as high as several thousand milligrams per deciliter of cholesterol,” as printed.
