In the article as originally published the labeling of the forest plots shown in Figures 3A-F were not correct. The use and positioning of the text “favours [pioglitazone]” and “favours [placebo]” seemed to imply that the placebo group had a higher risk of morbidity. A correct version of the Figure 3, with updated labeling is shown here.
The effect of pioglitazone in hepatic histologic scores (steatosis grade) with improvement of at least 1 grade (A). The effect of pioglitazone in hepatic histologic scores (inflammation grade) with improvement of at least 1 grade (B).

The effect of pioglitazone in hepatic histologic scores (fibrosis stage) with improvement of at least 1 grade (D). The effect of pioglitazone in resolution of NASH without worsening of fibrosis (E). The effect of pioglitazone in reduction of at least 2 points in hepatic histologic scores (from two different parameters) (F).
