Caption: IG intervention group, CG control group, f/u follow-up. “Cal” denotes a trial data collection circle for calibration purposes, referring to 3 months before t1. T0 is reference point for the retrospective parts of the baseline data collection 1 (DC-1) and data collection 2a (DC-2a); t1 highlights the end of the run-in period of the intervention and the beginning of the observation period; t2 marks the end of the observation period.
