  1. In this table, we measured correlation using Spearman’s rank correlation (Rho) ρ bivariate analysis of sample age and each individual concentration of analyte per sample. Number of samples analysed (n) per analyte. Statistical significance is considered when p value < 0.05. *analyte measured using ultra-sensitive MSD assay.
