TO THE EDITOR

Correction to: Rahayu ES, Mariyatun M, Putri Manurung NE, Hasan PN, Therdtatha P, Mishima R, Komalasari H, Mahfuzah NA, Pamungkaningtyas FH, Yoga WK, Nurfiana DA, Liwan SY, Juffrie M, Nugroho AE, Utami T. Effect of probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum Dad-13 powder consumption on the gut microbiota and intestinal health of overweight adults”. World J Gastroenterol 2021; 27(1): 107-128 [PMID: 33505154 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v27.i1.107].

The name of the primers used in this study[1], Bakt_341F (5’-CGCTCTTCCGATCTCTGCCTACGGGGGGGCWGCAG-355) GGCTATICCCACCATTCCCCATTCCACCACCACCACCACCACCACCACCACCAUTAA was spelled incorrectly. The correct name should be Bakt_341F (5’-CGCTCTTCCGATCTCTGCCTACGGGNGGCWGCAG-3’) and Bakt_805R (5’-TGCTCTTCCGATCTGACGACTACHVGGGTATCTAATCC-3’). We apologize for this error.

The title of this article[1] was “Effect of probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum Dad-13 powder consumption on the gut microbiota and intestinal health of overweight adults”. As the focus of the manuscript was on Lombok, Indonesia, the title should be "Effect of probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum Dad-13 powder consumption on the gut microbiota and intestinal health of Indonesian overweight adults".

Regarding the weight loss in females, it may be caused by probiotics influence. This finding also found in the study conducted by Sanchez et al[2] that the Lactobacillus rhamnosus CGMCC1.3724 (LPR) supplementation was significantly reduce weight on female subjects and had no effect on male subjects.

About the reduced average daily energy intake in the last month of ingestion period, we did not know the exact cause of this case. When the study was carried out, we let the subjects ate as their usual diet. There was no emphasis on reducing the daily intake from us.

We express our gratitude toward reviewer for these suggestions.
