Please note, not all rigor criteria are appropriate for all manuscripts.
Table 1: Rigor
Ethics IRB: Anonymized leftover patient nasopharyngeal swab samples in viral transport media (VTM), collected at the point of discard from inpatients at Guys’ and St Thomas’ Hospital in London (UK Research Ethics Committee 20/SC/0310), were sequenced using the ARTIC protocol [13] on Nanopore instruments to determine infection with the B.1.1.7 variant, then run neat or diluted 5-62.5x before molecular testing on the Abbott ID NOW COVID-19, m2000 RealTime SARS-CoV-2, Alinity m SARS-CoV-2, and Alinity m Resp-4-Plex. Sex as a biological variable not detected. Randomization not detected. Blinding not detected. Power Analysis not detected. Table 2: Resources
