Competing Interests
I have read the journal’s policy and the authors of this manuscript have the following competing interests: LLP is an employee of Eli Lilly. GGD is an employee of Eli Lilly. MSD was principal investigator of a sponsored research agreement with Eli Lilly at the Cleveland Clinic. The funder provided support in the form of salaries for the authors LLP and GGD, but did not have any additional role in the data collection and analysis, decision to publish, or preparation of the manuscript. This does not alter our adherence to PLOS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
