Following publication of the original article [1], the authors noticed the errors in the author group.

The typesetter has inadvertently missed to list Dr. Emilio Ros as the corresponding author of the article along with Dr. Jordi Salas-Salvadó. Also, the family name of the co-author “Christos S. Mantzoros” was incorrectly written as Christos S. Matzoros. Now, these changes have been corrected with this erratum.

The original article [1] has been updated.
