Correction

After publication of their conference abstract [1], the authors found the following error:

In the 'Results' section, "The most commonly identified bacteria were Pseudomonas aeruginosa (15.4%) and Enterococcus faecalis (11.3%); viruses were cytomegalovirus (CMV) (17.5%) and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) (17.5%); and fungi were Candida species (6.2%)", the proportion of Enterococcus faecalis should be 14.4% and for RSV it should be 2%.
