AB Error in Abstract and in Text.—In the article titled "Wound Infection in Patients Undergoing Total Hip Arthroplasty," published in the July Archives (114:815-823, 1979), an error occurred in the first line of the abstract. The figure in parentheses should read 2,537 A. Another error occurred in the text, page 819, right-hand column, the first full paragraph. It should read as follows: We do not agree with the conclusions of the National Research Council's study of 1964.29-30We believe that study indicated that whenever UV light was used, the incidence of infection when refined clean cases were involved was diminished.
