Namely, I have overlooked two important aspects of the study; which,

appropriate time-periods.
The first aspect are the

each subject with the first measurement as the incercept (within subjects).
Subsequently, the individual slope was regressed on other factors. Thus,

time series for _each_ of 120 subjects ? There has been a controlled

I don't think so. I can think of many examples in which statistical
