Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:Another limitation is that this estimate is based on the assumption that the overall conditions are not changing. This might not be true, given that in many regions the workers have started to return for work half a month post the Spring Festival holiday (schedulely ending on Feb 31), which may increase the SARS-CoV-2 infection. In this regard, it is noted that the daily number of new confirmed cases in past a few days in several provinces and cities (e.g., Guangdong Province, Fig. 2A; Shanghai and Shenzhen City, Fig. S1D) have increased a little bit more than predicted by the model.
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.
