  1. aNot indicated due to having a very limited interpretation
  2. bDummy coded with Sampling period 1 (2005–2006) as the reference category
  3. cThe indicated test refers to the overall effect of Sampling periods
  4. dThe indicated test refers to the overall effect of Seasonality
  5. ez-transformed to a mean of zero and standard deviation of one; mean (sd) of original variables were 17.7 (13.1) years (age), 2011-05-26 (1307) days (collection date), and 10.9 (2.9) h (collection time), respectively
