The authors regret to announce the inclusion of two errors in their article(1).

In the abstract the following sentence;

The AA group was shown to have a greater increase in insulin concentrations at 120 min (P = 0·019) and 180 min (P = 0·008) compared with baseline, despite similar glucose profiles.

Should correctly have read;

The GG group was shown to have a greater increase in insulin concentrations at 120 min (P = 0·019) and 180 min (P = 0·008) compared with baseline, despite similar glucose profiles.

And in the discussion;

A novel finding was the difference in insulin response between the genotypes, with the homozygous COMT AA genotype showing greater postprandial insulin levels.
