NIGMS provided institutional infrastructure and salary support for U.S. personnel (ØT), but played no role in study design, data collection, or the decision to publish. No NIH grant funds, COBRE center core resources, or domestic materials supported the co-authors (PJNB, YGH, GA), who participated strictly in a voluntary advisory and editorial capacity from their home institution outside the United States. Somnivore Pty Ltd provided unconditional access to the Somnivore software free of charge and did not provide direct financial support for this study.
