JAMA. 2009;301(15):1544.

Incorrect Wording: In The Rational Clinical Examination article entitled "Will the History and Physical Examination Help Establish That Irritable Bowel Syndrome Is Causing This Patient's Lower Gastrointestinal Tract Symptoms?" published in the October 15, 2008, issue of JAMA (2008;300(15):1793-1805), an incorrect word appeared on page 1800. In the fourth paragraph, the first sentence should read, "Since all of the patients in the study by Kruis et al¹⁹ had abdominal pain, flatulence, or a change in bowel habit" (replacing and with or). Table 5 presents this correctly.
