Data and materials of the study are available at https://doi.org/10.21249/DZHW:remo:1.0.0 as a fully anonymised downloadable Campus Use File and a pseudonymised Scientific Use File, accessible in a secure remote analysis environment. Data can be reused for secondary analyses, educational purposes, or combined with similar data sets.
