Nighttime is defined as 1800–0559 h and daytime as 0600–1759 h. Weekends and holidays are defined as beginning at 1800 h the calendar day before and ending at 1759 h that calendar day.

We include p-value results for test of count data (not ratios) using a negative binomial distribution as a measure of the ratio:

*

p < 0.04.

**

p ≤ 0.01.

***

p ≤ 0.001.
