➤ How can I tell if a clinical practice guideline counts as research evidence?
Check the guideline’s methods section. A true evidence-based guideline cites systematic searches, study selection criteria, quality appraisal tools (like GRADE), and references that link recommendations to studies. Look for multidisciplinary panels and conflict-of-interest declarations. Missing elements suggest the guideline offers lower-quality or expert-based guidance.
