With regard to the paper titled “Effect of Intervention in Subjects with High Risk of Diabetes Mellitus in Pakistan” by Hydrie et al. [1], it was stated that the protocol was approved by the Norwegian Research Council. But the statement was made by mistake.

All the subjects were from Pakistan and the project was approved by the appropriate Ethics Committee of Baqai Medical University (Baqai Institute of Diabetology and Endocrinology). All participants provided informed consent prior to the collection of any data and the project was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki.
