Following publication of the original article [1], the authors flagged that the name of ‘Asal Hojjat’ was misspelled; the name had been spelled as ‘Asal Hojat’.

The spelling has since been corrected in the original article and is included in this correction.

The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused.
