Correction to: Characterization of the virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains causing ventilator-associated pneumonia Beatriz Alonso1,2*, Laia Fernández-Barat3,4, Enea Gino Di Domenico5, Mercedes Marín1, Emilia Cercenado1, Irene Merino6,7,8,9,10, Manuela de Pablos11, Patricia Muñoz1,2,12,13 and María Guembe1,2 Correction to: BMC Infect Dis (2020) 20:909 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12879-020-05534-1 Following publication of the original article [1], the authors identified an error in the caption of Figs. 1 and 2: these should be inverted. The correct captions are given below. The correct caption for Fig. 1 is: "Classification of pyoverdine and pyocyanin producer by qualitative observational method. a, pyoverdine producer strain; b, pyocyanin producer strain" The correct caption for Fig. 2 is: "Survival curves for Galleria mellonella larvae after infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from patients with VAP (VAP P. aeruginosa, n = 8) and from patients with other infections (non-VAP P. aeruginosa, n = 8). PBS was used as a positive control for larvae survival. *Statistically differences were found between VAP and nonVAP P. aeruginosa (p < 0.001) using the log-rank test”. The original article [1] has been updated.
