dd class="first" id="idm139789798142912">The authors regret that the Cohn et al (2007) article was incorrectly categorized into hospital case-control in this study. It is now reproduced correctly at the text and Tables 1 and 2 correspondingly. The authors also corrected the term of DDE for their consistency as below.

• The numbers of study in the Methods of the Abstract and the second paragraph in the Results section should be corrected as follows.
- 16 hospital-based case-control studies → 15 hospital-based case-control studies
- 10 nested case-control studies → 11 nested case-control (prospective) studies
• The design of Cohn (2007)'s study in Table 1 should be corrected to Nested CC.
• The results related to study design in Table 2 should be changed as follows.

Studies included	No. of Studies	OR	95% CI	Heterogeneity		Egger's test (p for bias)
p	I² (%)
Type of study design
Hospital CC	15	1.01	0.89 to 1.13	0.171	25.7	0.994
Population CC	11	1.19	0.99 to 1.44	0.004	61.3	0.212
Nested CC	11	0.92	0.83 to 1.03	0.377	7.0	0.160

• All the terms of “exposure to DDE” in the text should be corrected to “exposure to DDT”.
