Correction: Muscle Drug Trial Lean Mass Data Error Clarified
Correction: Muscle Drug Trial Lean Mass Data Error

Corrections and clarifications: An article about a muscle growth drug trial contained an error in the print edition. The piece stated that participants given apitegromab alongside tirzepatide lost on average 1.6kg of lean mass, while those given apitegromab alongside a placebo lost on average 3.5kg of lean mass. However, as mentioned elsewhere in the article, the drug given alongside the placebo was actually tirzepatide. This mistake appeared only in the printed version of the article titled 'Drug could reduce muscle loss for those using slimming jab' published on 9 June, page 14, early editions.

Other Recently Amended Articles
