The time until a final ethics vote was received for the Cross-Sectoral Platform (SUEP) and the High-Resolution Platform (HAP) study sites (n = 120) is shown in days with regard to the number of annotations: (a) zero (n = 80) vs. one or more (n = 40) annotations, (b) one to four (n = 21) vs. five or more (n = 19) annotations. For better visualization, the HAP study site outlier with 242 days of ethics process time was not included. Analysis containing this study site showed comparable significance levels
