Changes in the male to female ratio according to tumor subsite

In the page 2, the citation of Ref. [6] in line 9 of left column should be [7], and the subsequent reference numbers should be increased by 1.

In page 8, the sentence “Similarly, some studies have reported differences in the administration of adjuvant chemotherapy between men and women [26–29].” should be written as “Similarly, some studies have reported differences in the administration of adjuvant chemotherapy between men and women [27–29].” That is the four references [26–29] should be changed to three references [27–29]. However, there is no change in the reference list.
