Erratum to: The effects of an extensive exercise programme on the progression of mild cognitive impairment (MCI): study protocol for a randomised controlled trial

The Original Article was published on 22 March 2017

Erratum

After the publication of this work [1] it was noticed that second author ‘Marit L. Sanders’ was incorrectly removed from the author list as a named author and listed under the NeuroExercise study group. The original article has been revised to correct this.

The Acknowledgments have been revised accordingly and should appear as below:
