Use and Misuse of Cq in qPCR Data Analysis and Reporting

Adrian Ruiz-Villalba et al.

Summary: In the analysis of qPCR data, the C-q value indicates the position of the amplification curve relative to the cycle axis, but it can vary between runs and machines and is highly influenced by PCR efficiency. To avoid misinterpretations, efficiency-corrected starting concentrations should be calculated for reporting gene expression ratios and fold differences.

Establishment and lineage dynamics of the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic in the UK

Louis du Plessis et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the genetic lineage structure of the early UK COVID-19 epidemic through genomic sampling, identifying that virus lineages introduced before the national lockdown tended to be larger and more dispersed. After the lockdown, lineage importation and regional diversity decreased, while lineage elimination depended on lineage size. The research emphasizes the impact of genetic perspective on transmission dynamics for COVID-19 epidemiology and control.

Test sensitivity is secondary to frequency and turnaround time for COVID-19 screening

Daniel B. Larremore et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a public health crisis due to the spread of SARS-CoV-2 through presymptomatic, symptomatic, and asymptomatic individuals. Effective population screening for the virus is essential for reopening societies and controlling its spread, with testing frequency and reporting speed playing crucial roles in its success. Test sensitivity is only marginally important compared to these factors.

Assessing critical gaps in COVID-19 testing capacity: the case of delayed results in Ecuador

Irene Torres et al.

Summary: This study found that a centralized RT-PCR testing system in Ecuador contributed to critical delays in processing, potentially masking a higher case burden than reported. Although some provinces had authorized COVID-19 processing laboratories, there is a need to estimate and augment laboratory capacities for improved decision-making and policies. Support is needed for necessary human and physical resources, as well as transportation of samples and supplies, and information management, at all phases of diagnostic testing.

The incubation period during the pandemic of COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Wafa Dhouib et al.

Summary: Our study aimed to determine the incubation period of COVID-19 through a systematic review and meta-analysis. We analyzed 42 studies conducted mainly in China and found that the mean and median incubation period were 8 days and 12 days respectively. Parametric models showed that the 95th percentiles ranged from 10.3 to 16 days, with a 99th percentile as long as 20.4 days.

Heat-Treated Virus Inactivation Rate Depends Strongly on Treatment Procedure: Illustration with SARS-CoV-2

Amandine Gamble et al.

Summary: Decontamination is necessary for safe reuse of contaminated equipment and handling of biological samples. Heat treatment is a common method, but the process and container type used can greatly impact effectiveness. In reporting experimental studies and developing decontamination guidelines, specifying heat-treatment procedures and considering container types are crucial for result interpretation and reproducibility.

Resilient SARS-CoV-2 diagnostics workflows including viral heat inactivation

Maria Jose Lista et al.

Summary: The study provides multiple workflows for SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid detection in clinical samples by comparing different commercially available RNA extraction methods and RT-qPCR reagents. Beckman performed better with primer-probe combinations, and Luna reagent showed the highest sensitivity. Additionally, heat treatment of nasopharyngeal swabs can effectively inactivate SARS-CoV-2 without affecting qPCR sensitivity, making testing more portable in non-CL-3 facilities.
