Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:One limitation of our study is that a sample obtained by the relative recall method might not be representative of the total number of existing studies [11]. Considering the high level of standardisation of systematic reviews it is possible they all cover much the same territory. An evaluation against a sample derived from a manual review of journals and other sources might provide a more reliable estimate [19]. However, this approach may not be suitable in the context of the deluge of scientific information about COVID-19. Another limitation of our evaluation is the scope of the assessment. We addressed only primary studies and not the other types of scientific articles that are contained in the COVID-19 L·OVE repository, which includes any type of scientific article. Considering the inclusive nature of the methods used to maintain the COVID-19 L·OVE repository, we can expect similar results for the other types of articles, but a formal evaluation would provide a definitive answer. Our study is not designed to assess the specificity of the repository nor any of the components of the COVID-19 classification platform. We believe the latter has enormous potential to increase the reliability of search processes and to reduce the amount of work involved. However, it is yet to be tested. Implications: Accessing all the available studies for a particular topic is key to avoiding being misled by research [20]. Unfortunately, substantial time and resources are needed to comprehensive...
