Statistical methods / analysis
Simple statistics will be performed to describe the data set. Primary and secondary analyses for each substudy shall be as specified in the protocol above. Descriptive statistics will be applied. Discrete data presented as N (%) and continuous data as mean (SD) if normally distributed and median (IQR) if nonparametric. Discrete data will be compared using Chi square tests and continuous data using non paired t-test, unless nonparametric, in which case Mann Whitney U test will be applied. Univariate and multivariate analyses will be performed with multivariate analysis including those relevant variables significant at a p<0.1 in univariate analysis. A p-value of <0.05 will be deemed significant. Power calculation for each of the 11 substudies has been prospectively determined in the study protocol.
