Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 291003 0
Reference ranges (90% confidence intervals for the general population) will be determined for each age band within the population sample by a general linear model (ANOVA). Serum periostin level results will be provided by the specific periostin laboratory assay and statistically assessed, as above.

Statistical methods / analysis
The sample size is based on the recommendations of the Australian Association of Clinical Biochemists as reported in: Defining, establishing and verifying reference intervals in the clinical laboratory: Approved guidelines 3rd edition. CLSI document C28-A3, Wayne PA. Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute 2008.
Reference ranges (90% confidence intervals for the general population) will be determined for each age band within the population sample by a general linear model (ANOVA). Initial analysis will be carried out on a non-transformed scale however if a highly skew distribution is found analyses will be done on the log transformed scale.
