No sample size calculation was done due to the exploratory nature. For the primary outcome, we performed an estimate of the precision. Given a precision of ± 3% and assumed proportion of 30% self-sampling (enrolled subjects), a sample size of 1200 WLWH estimates a 95% confidence interval completely within the required precision. In the pessimistic case with a given a precision of ± 2% and assumed proportion of only 10% self-sampling (enrolled subjects), a sample size of 1200 WLWH estimates a 95% confidence interval completely within the required precision.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
