  1. SciScore for 10.1101/2021.04.08.438904: (What is this?)

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

    Table 1: Rigor

    Institutional Review Board StatementIRB: Ex vivo IFN-γ ELISpots in SARS-CoV-2 recovered donors: Cryopreserved PBMCs were used from SARS-CoV-2 recovered donors recruited into the Sepsis Immunomics study with ethical approval from the South Central -Oxford C Research Ethics Committee in England (Ref 13/SC/0149).
    RandomizationFirst, one sequence per country per epi week was selected randomly, followed by random sampling of the remaining sequences to generate a sample of 4000 down-sampled sequences.
    Blindingnot detected.
    Power Analysisnot detected.
    Sex as a biological variablenot detected.

    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.
