A Corrigendum on
Trends and Inequalities in Unplanned Pregnancy in Three Population-Based Birth Cohorts in Pelotas, Brazil

by Moreira, L., Ewerling, F., dos Santos, I. S., Wehrmeister, F. C., Matijasevich, A., Barros, A. J. D., Menezes, A. M. B., Gonçalves, H., Murray, J., Domingues, M. R., Silveira, M. F. (2020). Int. J. Public Health. 10:1505. doi: 10.1007/s00038-020-01505-0

In the original article, there were errors. A correction has been made to:

The legend in Figure 1 is inverted. The darker dots, that generally have lower prevalence of unplanned pregnancy, represent the women with higher family income; and the lighter dots represent those with lower family income. Unfortunately, this mistake misleads the interpretation of the figure. This error occurred during the final step of the Editorial process, when the authors replaced the color figure with a black and white version.

FIGURE 1
www.frontiersin.org

FIGURE 1. Prevalence of unplanned pregnancy according to monthly family income (in minimum wages) and maternal skin color in three Pelotas Birth Cohorts (Pelotas, Brazil, 1993, 2004, 2015).

Also, in the presentation of the results of Table 3, a minus sign is wrongly placed. Where it reads: “In 1993, the SII was–14.96, i.e., the prevalence of the outcome was–14.96 percentage points higher among the poorest mothers than among the richest mothers”, it should actually say “In 1993, the SII was–14.96, i.e., the prevalence of the outcome was 14.96 percentage points higher among the poorest mothers than among the richest mothers”.

I apologize for these mistakes on behalf of all co-authors.
