Some misunderstanding1 has arisen as a result of one of the statements in my editorial.2
I referred to a 2010 study in which Asians were defined, for the purposes of that study, as “people from India, China, Korea, Vietnam and Philippines.”3 I did not intend to suggest that the results (e.g., evidence of sex selection, disparity of infant sex) applied to all those groups; indeed, the results were varied.
I apologize for the ambiguity.
