In the published article, there was a mistake in the Abstract where the subheading “Discussion” was incorrectly used; this has been corrected to read “Conclusion.”

In the Discussion section, the term “Australian” was incorrectly used and has been corrected to “Austrian.” A correction has been made to the section Discussion, paragraph number 3.

The sentence previously read:

“Additionally, although the study focused on children, a recent study about Australian pediatric population reported that approximately half of overweight children became obese during the pandemic (18).”

A corrected sentence reads:

“Additionally, although the study focused on children, a recent study about Austrian pediatric population reported that approximately half of overweight children became obese during the pandemic (18).”

The original version of this article has been updated.
