S1: How representative was the exposed cohort?
cs_s1
|
The document does not provide explicit information about how the exposed cohort was selected or whether it is representative of the average exposed person in the community. The study focuses on monitoring AMR in aquaculture settings and surrounding marine environments but does not describe the representativeness of the exposed cohort in terms of community representation or selection methods.

S2: How was the non-exposed cohort selected?
cs_s2
|
The document does not explicitly describe the selection method for the non-exposed cohort. While it mentions sampling at aquaculture farms and surrounding marine sites, there is no clear statement indicating whether the non-exposed cohort was drawn from the same community as the exposed cohort or from a different source.

|
S3: How was exposure ascertained?
cs_s3
|
The document does not explicitly describe how exposure (antimicrobial resistance risks) was ascertained. There is no mention of secure records, structured interviews, questionnaires, or any validation of exposure measurement methods. The methodology section focuses on sample collection and laboratory analysis but does not address exposure ascertainment.

S4: Was the outcome of interest not present at the start of the study?
cs_s4
|
The document does not explicitly state whether the outcome of interest (antimicrobial resistance risks) was present at the start of the study. While the study describes a year-long monitoring program to evaluate AMR in aquaculture settings and surrounding marine environments, there is no clear indication that the outcome was absent at baseline. The study design is described as monitoring, but it does not specify whether this was a prospective cohort study with incident cases or if it included prevalent cases at baseline.

O1: How was the outcome assessed?
cs_o1
|
The document does not explicitly describe the method of outcome assessment for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) risks. While it mentions various analytical techniques (e.g., PCR for ARGs, MAR index for ARB), there is no clear statement about whether outcome assessors were blinded to exposure status or if independent assessment was performed. The absence of explicit methodological details about outcome assessment procedures precludes awarding a star for this criterion.

|
O2: Was the follow-up long enough for outcomes to occur?
cs_o2
|
The study explicitly states a 1-year follow-up period for monitoring antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in coastal waters and aquaculture systems, which is clearly sufficient for the outcomes of interest (prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, antibiotic resistance genes, and antibiotics) to occur. The duration is explicitly mentioned in the methodology section.

O3: Was the follow-up adequate (i.e., completeness)?
cs_o3
|
The document does not provide any explicit information about follow-up completeness, loss to follow-up rates, or descriptions of subjects lost to follow-up. Without this critical information, we cannot assess whether follow-up was adequate or whether losses to follow-up could introduce bias.
