The authors identified a siginificant modification related to the results of the regression analysis. The primary focus of the analysis, manganese, remains almost unchanged. However, there are slight alterations in the 95% confidence intervals and p-values for cadmium, lead, mercury, and selenium in Table 3, Supplementary Table 2 and Supplementary Table 3. Consequently the original Table 3, Supplementary Table 2 and Supplementary Table 3:

Table 3. Association of maternal blood Cd, Pb, Hg, Se, and Mn quartile concentrations with physical abnormalities.

have been corrected as follows:
