figure 1

Flow diagram of the population. As shown, a total of 84 cases were enrolled according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and then divided into early detection group (TTP ≤ 17 h) and late detection group (TTP > 17 h). The clinical characteristics of each group were then determined

Fig. 2
figure 2

Bar chart of TTP in Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia children. Out of a total of 84 SAB children, the number of children in each TTP period was plotted against the corresponding TTP, as shown. Details of the quantification have been described in Methods

The correct figures can be found below.

The corrections have been implemented in the original article as well.
