TITLE: 
Correction: Calcium plus vitamin D3 supplementation facilitated Fat loss in overweight and obese college students with very-low calcium consumption: a randomized controlled trial



BODY.CORRECTION:
After publication of this article
[1], we noted errors to the “body weight” row of Table three. The values for the controls of Δ1(wk 0 ~ wk 4) and Δ2(wk 0 ~ wk 8) should be negative (please see Table
1 below, a corrected version of Table three).

Calcium+D, Calcium+vitamin D3 group. Control, control group. VFA, visceral fat area.
Δ1=[(mean values wk 4)-(mean values wk 0)]. Δ2=[(mean values wk 8)-(mean values wk 0)]. Δ3=[(mean values wk 12)-(mean values wk 0)].

Question: Compared to Control what was the result of Calcium plus vitamin D3 on visceral fat area VFA (cm2) at week 8 , 12?
