In Table 1 of Albillos et al. [1] there is no Off-State N = 33 value of NMSS total score and of PDCRS total score.

[i] Values are expressed in medians (interquartile range) otherwise specified a = mean (Standard deviation). Parkinson’s disease (PD) (total sample = 35) measured in the ON state (ON-PD) (n = 35) and OFF state (OFF-PF), (n = 33); ET = Essential Tremor; UPDRS = Unified Parkinson’s disease Rating Scale; NMSS = Non motor symptoms severity score: PDCRS = Parkinson’s disease cognitive rating scale. Data were compared using the ANOVA test.
In Table 2, the values of α-Synuclein are quoted in ng/ml. The label of the first cell of the last row is ‘Pairwise comparisons’ and should read (1) vs. (5), (2) vs. (4), and (3) vs. (5) (second cell), (1) vs. (2) and (1) vs. (3) (third cell) and (1) vs. (2), (1) vs. (4), and (3) vs. (4) (fifth cell).
