This Article contains an error. The p-mTORC1 control panel in Figure 8G was inadvertently duplicated from the p-Akt1 control panel in Figure 6C. The correct panels for Figure 8G and 8H appear below in Figure 1, as Panels 1A and 1B respectively. The statistical analyses were re-calculated for the m-TORC1 data, and the conclusions were unaffected.

Rapamycin enhanced early AVF remodeling to improve patency. (A) Photomicrographs of representative dual IF of a-actin (green) and p-Akt1 (red, first row) or p-mTORC1 (red, second row) in AVF after control, early or late rapamycin treatment (day 42). (B) Bar graphs showing quantification of dual IF in AVF after control, early rapamycin or late rapamycin treatment (day 42); p-Akt1-α-actin: p = 0.6067 (ANOVA); p-mTORC1-α-actin: *p = 0.0004 (ANOVA); control vs late rapamycin: p = 0.0016; n=5 for all groups except n = 4 in control group for p-mTORC1-α-actin.
