Erratum to: Associations of social and economic and pregnancy exposures with blood pressure in UK White British and Pakistani children age 4/5 (Scientific Reports, (2018), 8, 1, (8966), 10.1038/s41598-018-27316-1)

The original version of this Article contained errors in Table 2 due to the incorrect coding of the hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) variable. This error also affected Figure 5 in the original Article, and supplementary Tables 2c, 3c, 4b, 5 and 6c in the Supplementary Information file, which have all been replaced. As a result, in the Results section, “By contrast, around twice as many White British women had HDP (both gestational hypertension and pre-eclampsia)” now reads: “By contrast, around twice as many White British women had HDP (gestational hypertension) but rates of pre-eclampsia were similar in both groups” Also in the Results section, “Associations between HDP (pre-eclampsia) offspring outcomes were also positive but with wide confidence limits that included the null value and reflected the smaller number of participants with pre-eclampsia” now reads: “Associations between HDP (pre-eclampsia) offspring outcomes were also positive but with wide confidence limits that mostly included the null value and reflected the smaller number of participants with pre-eclampsia” These errors have now been corrected in the HTML and PDF versions of this Article, and in the accompanying Supplementary Material.
