In the published article, Zahran AM, Nafady-Hego H, Moeen SM, Eltyb HA, Wahman MM, Nafady A. Higher proportion of non-classical and intermediate monocytes in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients in Egypt: A possible prognostic marker. Afr J Lab Med. 2021;10(1), a1296. https://doi.org/10.4102/ajlm.v10i1.1296, there was an error on page 3 under the ‘Results’ section. The mean age of the MM patients should be 63.5 as per Table 1 instead of 6.35. The first paragraph under the ‘Results’ section is updated to:

Results

Baseline characteristics of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients and healthy controls

The mean age of the MM patients was 63.5 ± 4.07 years, and the number of men (13) was double that of women (7) (Table 1). The proportion of plasma cells in bone marrow was 39.7% ± 3.7% and that of the monoclonal band (M-protein) was 4.44 g/dL ± 2.8 g/dL.
