Evidence standards
Distinguish laboratory studies, animal experiments, early human studies, controlled trials, and official product labeling. Do not claim a treatment is effective because a proposed mechanism sounds plausible. Precise clinical numbers require the specific primary study, population, comparator, duration, and limitations.
Authorship and review
This edition uses disclosed fictional editorial characters with AI-generated portraits. Their education, workplaces, and awards are story details, not real credentials. Articles are AI-assisted drafts and are not described as medically reviewed. No invented affiliations, endorsements, or social accounts are claimed as real.
Corrections and updates
The importer preserves the first publication timestamp and changes the modification timestamp only when content changes. A correction should identify the changed claim and supporting source. Regulatory statements need rechecking because the status of a product or indication can change.
Source selection
Prefer current official labels, FDA records, registered trial records, and primary research. A PubMed search link helps discover papers but is not proof of any specific clinical outcome. Do not treat a manufacturer sales page as independent clinical evidence.
