Details
Due to confidentiality restrictions, some data that were available in previous versions of the IDL for Switzerland, Italy and some entries for Japan and Belgium have been removed. As the IDL metadata are updated somewhat regularly and former versions of the database are not preserved, results from published analyses are replicable but not reproducible.
