Competing Interests

We declare that the authors received research grants from the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF), the Olga Mayenfisch Foundation, Switzerland, the OPO Foundation, Switzerland, the Novartis Foundation, Switzerland, the Helmut Horten Foundation, Switzerland, and the Swissheart Foundation (all to Catherine Gebhard). These funding organizations did not play a role in the study design, data collection and analysis, decision to publish, or preparation of the manuscript and only provided financial support only in the form of salaries (CG, SB, AH, MM) and research materials. The specific roles of these authors are articulated in the ‘author contributions’ section. We further declare that the affiliation to these funding agencies does not alter our adherence to PLOS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
