Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety 2007; 16: 943–945 DOI: 10.1002/pds.1420 If has come to our attention that page 945 of this Letter to the Editor contained an error in the text. The published sentence currently reads from line 3: For example 12 reported “impressively large” observed/expected ratios for the association of leukotriene receptor modifiers with Churg‐Strauss syndrome when they applied a data mining methodology to the US FDA AERS database, while 13 failed to find any association using a nested case‐control study in US managed care organization databases. It should read: For example DuMouchel et al . 12 reported “impressively large” observed/expected ratios for the association of leukotriene receptor modifiers with Churg‐Strauss syndrome when they applied a data mining methodology to the US FDA AERS database, while Harrold et al . 13 failed to find any association using a nested case‐control study in US managed care organization databases. We apologise for this anomaly.
