The original version of this article unfortunately contained some mistakes. In the sub-section “Density measurements in deep capillary plexus”, the following sentence “Meta-analysis of these three studies also did not reveal any significant changes (MD, −0.61; 95% CI [−1.78 to 0.56]; P = 0.30; I2 = 0.00)” was corrected to read “Meta-analysis of these two studies (26,40) also did not reveal any significant changes (MD, −0.61; 95% CI [−1.78 to 0.56]; P = 0.30; I2 = 0.00)”. Additionally, the reference numbers in the tables 1, 2, 3, as well as the Supplementary Tables S1 and S2 have been corrected. The original article has been corrected.
