We have noticed several errors in the data presentation of our article [1]. These errors do not impact the Results and Discussion section in the article, as the interpretation was made based on the correct information. However, we believe these errors might confuse readers’ interpretation of the study. Hence, we see the importance in acknowledging and correcting these errors. We extend our sincere apology for any issues caused by these errors.

Corrections:

In Table 1, the percentage of male subjects in the study should read “38.7%” instead of “8.7%”. The correct number of male subjects representing this percentage has been shown in Table 2 of the original article. The data in Table 1 are otherwise correct.

In Fig. 2, the legend for non-traditional medicine user and traditional medicine user was mixed up. Non-traditional medicine users should have been represented by the dark blue color, while traditional medicine users should have been represented by the light blue color. The proportion of which, presented in the figure, is otherwise correct. Kindly find the corrected Fig. 2 in this erratum.
