SciScore for 10.1101/2020.04.28.20083311: (What is this?)
Please note, not all rigor criteria are appropriate for all manuscripts.
Table 1: Rigor
Institutional Review Board Statement Consent: Patients younger than 18 years, with known smelling disorder or who did not consent to the study were excluded.
IRB: The study was approved by the University hospital ethical committee (No. 184/20), written informed consent was obtained from all participants in the study.Randomization not detected. Blinding not detected. Power Analysis Assuming a prevalence of anosmia of 5% in the uninfected control group [6], the sample size was calculated to test the null hypothesis that anosmia in COVID-19 is the same as in controls and to find a significant difference using the chi square test with a power of >90%. Sex as a biological variable not detected. Table 2: …

About SciScore
SciScore is an automated tool that is designed to assist expert reviewers by finding and presenting formulaic information scattered throughout a paper in a standard, easy to digest format. SciScore is not a substitute for expert review. SciScore checks for the presence and correctness of RRIDs (research resource identifiers) in the manuscript, and detects sentences that appear to be missing RRIDs. SciScore also checks to make sure that rigor criteria are addressed by authors. It does this by detecting sentences that discuss criteria such as blinding or power analysis. SciScore does not guarantee that the rigor criteria that it detects are appropriate for the particular study. Instead it assists authors, editors, and reviewers by drawing attention to sections of the manuscript that contain or should contain various rigor criteria and key resources.
