  2. Figure Errors

    In reviewing the article entitled "Concept of a Point of Care Test to Detect New Oral Anticoagulants in Urine Samples," Thrombosis Journal 2013 11:15, errors were discovered in the captions under figures 1 and 2 on page 3 of the article.

    The caption under Figure 1 states that if the patient has not taken dabigatran, the urine will turn blue indicating a negative result but the photo has a positive symbol below the blue colored sample. The same error occurs in Figure 2. Figure 2 states that if the patient has not taken rivaroxaban, the urine will be clear indicating a negative result but the photo has a positive symbol below the clear colored sample.

    I wanted to bring this error to your attention for further review and clarification. Thank you, Anna Viscusi
