Corrigenda: Omission of the Description of Informed Consent

Out of 2 original articles published in Diabetes & Metabolism Journal from December 2018 to February 2019, 2 articles lacked the description of informed consent. However, the editorial office had already received the informed consent when all submitted manuscripts were arrived at the office. Therefore, editorial office apologizes readers not checking those ethical issues and publishes corrigendum as follows:
