Erratum

After the publication of this article [1] it was noticed that Table 3B was misaligned.

In Table 3B in both the PDF and online versions: Mexican Americans- the numbers "135, 236, Ref, 41, 330, Ref" should be shifted to the right (i.e., "135" should read under MetS "Yes" column; "236" under MetS "No" column; "Ref" under "PR" column for MetS ; "41" under CVD risk (>15%) "Yes" column; "330" under CVD risk (>15%) "No" column; and the final "Ref" under "PR" column for CVD risk.

Non-Hispanic Whites- the numbers "98, 154, Ref, 46, 206, Ref" should be shifted to the right (i.e., "98" should read under MetS "Yes" column; "154" under MetS "No" column; "Ref" under "PR" column for MetS ; "46" under CVD risk (>15%) "Yes" column; "206" under CVD risk (>15%) "No" column; and the final "Ref" under "PR" column for CVD risk.

Non-Hispanic Blacks- the numbers "128, 486, Ref, 63, 551, Ref" should be shifted to the right (i.e., "128" should read under MetS "Yes" column; "486" under MetS "No" column; "Ref" under "PR" column for MetS ; "63" under CVD risk (>15%) "Yes" column; "551" under CVD risk (>15%) "No" column; and the final "Ref" under "PR" column for CVD risk.

The original article was corrected.

The publisher apologises for these errors.
