The original version of this article unfortunately contained a mistake in the Results section. The correct equation from the cubic regression analysis for male is: Age = 14.408 + 0.475X-0.064X2 + 0.005X3, and for the female is: 18.196–1.637X + 0.204X2–0.005X3. The error doesn’t affect the main conclusion.
