Dr Glueck and Co-Authors' Letter of Withdrawal

To the Editor.—

Our paper (Pediatrics 1986; 78:338) was seriously flawed by unintentional errors, which we profoundly regret. The committee that reviewed the patient charts found errors and inconsistencies in our use of some of the lipid data but not the height and weight data. When we corrected the errors, they were found to be nonsystematic and random. The clarified data led to the same conclusion as the original paper: long-term therapy with cholesterol-lowering diet and/or bile acid-binding resin did not affect normal growth and development in children.
