Errors in Terminology, Data Query, and Prevalence Rates

In the Brief Report “Prevalence, Comorbidity, and Sociodemographic Correlates of Psychiatric Diagnoses Reported in the All of Us Research Program,” published Online First on April 20, 2022, and in the June issue of JAMA Psychiatry, the authors had erroneously reported disorders when they should have used the term d iagnoses. In addition, their query of the All of Us database had erroneously identified 331 380 participants, but the correct number of participants with available EHR data using code developed by the All of Us workbench team was 214 206. The authors revised their analysis, as explained in their Letter, and report different prevalence rates for the diagnoses. The original study reported that prevalence rates among the All of Us cohort were generally lower than that of the general population. In their revised analysis, estimates for many of the diagnoses were lower than nationally represent ative population-based estimates, except those for mood disorders, sleep disorders, and schizophrenia. The article title, text, Tables, Figure, and Supplement have been corrected online to address these errors.
