Correction to: Diabetologia

The original text mistakenly stated that premenopausal women have higher skeletal muscle mass than men. The original text has now been corrected to read: ‘Studies have provided evidence that premenopausal women have higher skeletal muscle and hepatic insulin sensitivity and higher stimulated insulin secretion, and thus lower fasting glucose and HbA1c values, than men [4, 7]’.
