Correction to Lancet Infect Dis 2021; 21: 1129–40
Abstract
Torrico F, Gascón J, Barreira F, et al. New regimens of benznidazole monotherapy and in combination with fosravuconazole for treatment of Chagas disease (BENDITA): a phase 2, double-blind, randomised trial. Lancet Infect Dis 2021; 21: 1129–40—In this Article, benznidazole was misspelt as “benznizadole” throughout the column headings of tables 1–3. This correction has been made to the online version as of July 28, 2021, and the printed version is correct.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design.
