SciScore for 10.1101/2021.09.28.21264207: (What is this?)
Please note, not all rigor criteria are appropriate for all manuscripts.
Table 1: Rigor
Ethics Consent: Written informed consent was obtained from all participants, and the trial was done in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki and Good Clinical Practice.
IRB: Study approval in the UK was done by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (reference 21584/0424/001-0001) and the South Central Berkshire Research Ethics Committee (reference 20/SC/0145).Sex as a biological variable not detected. Randomization For some assays and where sample availability allowed, comparison was made with age- and sex-matched participants who were HIV negative, aged 18–55 years, enrolled into the main COV002 phase 2/3 randomised clinical trial, and randomly assigned … SciScore for 10.1101/2021.09.28.21264207: (What is this?)

Antibodies Sentences Resources After 2-hour incubation and a washing step, detection antibody (MSD SULFO-TAG™ Anti-Human IgG Antibody, 1/200) was added. Anti-Human IgGsuggested: NoneAssays were performed using Multiscreen IP ELISpot plates (Merck Millipore, Watford, UK) coated with 10 μg/mL human anti-IFNγ antibody and developed using SA-ALP antibody conjugate kits (Mabtech, Stockholm, Sweden) and BCIP NBT-plus chromogenic substrate (Moss Inc., Pasadena, MA, USA). anti-IFNγsuggested: NoneSA-ALPsuggested: NoneAfter stimulation cells were stained with the anti-human antibodies contained in supplementary table 6. anti-humansuggested: NoneExperimental Models: Cell Lines Sentences Resources A MULTI-SPOT® 96-well, 10 spot plate was coated with three SARS CoV-2 antigens (S, RBD, N), SARS-CoV-1 and MERS-CoV spike trimers, as well as spike proteins from seasonal human coronaviruses, HCoV-OC43, HCoV-HKU1, HCoV-229E and HCoV-NL63, and bovine serum albumin. HCoV-229Esuggested: NoneHCoV-NL63suggested: RRID:CVCL_RW88)The mixtures were then transferred to 96-well, cell culture-treated, flat-bottom microplate containing confluent Vero cell monolayers in duplicate and incubated for further 2 hours, followed by the addition of 1.5% semi-solid carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) overlay medium to each well to limit virus diffusion. Verosuggested: CLS Cat# 605372/p622_VERO, RRID:CVCL_0059)Software and Algorithms Sentences Resources Participants with a history of laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection by anti-N protein IgG immunoassay (Abbott Architect, Abbott Park, IL, USA) at screening were excluded. Abbott Architectsuggested: (Abbott ARCHITECT i1000sr System, RRID:SCR_019328)Standardised EUs were determined from a single dilution of each sample against the standard curve which was plotted using the 4-Parameter logistic model (Gen5 v3.09, BioTek). Gen5suggested: (Gen5, RRID:SCR_017317)The percentage of focus reduction was calculated and IC50 (reported as FRNT50) was determined using the probit program from the SPSS package. SPSSsuggested: (SPSS, RRID:SCR_002865)The data was analysed using FlowJo version 10 and Prism version 9. FlowJosuggested: (FlowJo, RRID:SCR_008520)Prismsuggested: (PRISM, RRID:SCR_005375)Gating strategies are as shown in supplementary figure 1a and b Phylogenetic analysis: We used protein BLAST to download all human coronavirus S protein sequences from NCBI database. BLASTsuggested: (BLASTX, RRID:SCR_001653)NCBIsuggested: (NCBI, RRID:SCR_006472)We used MAFFT to align all chosen human corona viruses, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 S protein sequences. MAFFTsuggested: (MAFFT, RRID:SCR_011811)We then calculated the pairwise distances between the sequences and built a neighbour joining tree using MATLAB. MATLABsuggested: (MATLAB, RRID:SCR_001622)We did all analyses using R (version 3.6.1 or later), and Prism 9 (GraphPad Software). GraphPadsuggested: (GraphPad Prism, RRID:SCR_002798)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).
