    SciScore for 10.1101/2020.03.29.20046631: (What is this?)

    Please note, not all rigor criteria are appropriate for all manuscripts.

    Table 1: Rigor

    Institutional Review Board StatementIRB: The study was later approved by Columbia University Institutional Review Board for research and publication purposes.
    Randomizationnot detected.
    Blindingnot detected.
    Power Analysisnot detected.
    Sex as a biological variablenot detected.

    Table 2: Resources

    No key resources detected.

    Results from OddPub: We did not detect open data. We also did not detect open code. Researchers are encouraged to share open data when possible (see Nature blog).

    Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:
    There are limitations to this study. First, responses from patients in other parts of the country that are not so significantly impacted from COVID-19 may differ from our data. Secondly, our response rate was 17%. Due to the anonymity of the survey we do not have information on the non-responders and do not know if they share the same opinions as our responders. It is possible that those who responded had the strongest opinions. Lastly, the situation with COVID-19 is very fluid. As we gain a deeper understanding of the long-term impact of the pandemic and see how the situation evolves on a local, national and global scale, patients’ feelings may change.

    Results from TrialIdentifier: No clinical trial numbers were referenced.

    Results from Barzooka: We did not find any issues relating to the usage of bar graphs.

    Results from JetFighter: We did not find any issues relating to colormaps.

    Results from rtransparent:

    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 checks for the presence and correctness of RRIDs (research resource identifiers), and for rigor criteria such as sex and investigator blinding. For details on the theoretical underpinning of rigor criteria and the tools shown here, including references cited, please follow this link.
