Clinical significance of stanniocalcin expression in tissue and serum of gastric cancer patients

In the published article (3), there are two mistakes. The corrections are as follows.

• The corrected icon of Figure 2 should be A,C,E in the first line and B,D,F in the second line rather than A,B,C in the first line and D,E,F in the second line;
• The “Figure 1 C,E” and the “Figure 1 D,F” in the Figure 3 legend should be “Figure 2 C,E” and “Figure 2 D,F”.

The publisher regrets these errors.
