  1. Details of regression analyses of Figure 3. Regression lines were fitted according to the linear model y = a + bx (where a = y-intercept, b = slope). Goodness-of-fit is indicated by values of R2 close to 1.00 and by the statistical significance of (1) F-test of the overall fit, (2) t-tests of individual parameters. ***: p < 0.001.
