Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:As a limitation, all 76 studies (except for one, Mirjam E Kretzschmar et al) (103) have been conducted in Asia, particularly in Wuhan, China. Some epidemiological parameters in Europe, Africa, and America could be different based on control strategies. Hence, distribution of these epidemiological parameters could be more globally. Future studies to calculate more generalized pooled estimates, using studies all over the world, would be recommended.
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.
