Methodology

Looking for health?

You are viewing a supporting framework page, not the main health reading path. Continue with a health tradition or topic below.

Evidence is multi-axis

We do not compress truth into one score. Each claim records knowledge class, source type, study design, directness, consistency, precision, relevance, safety, regulation, commercial interest, freshness and publication state.

Statement-level provenance

Every material public statement receives a stable claim ID. Its source links identify publisher, document type, date, language, interest context and review date. Sources support only the bounded statement to which they are linked. Citation does not transfer the authority of a regulator, university or tradition to unrelated claims.

From source to publication

  1. IngestCapture source identity and immutable metadata.
  2. ClassifySeparate tradition, mechanism, outcome, safety, regulation and commercial assertions.
  3. SynthesizeCompare methods, populations, dose, uncertainty and disagreement.
  4. ReviewEditorial and safety gates operate independently.
  5. PublishOnly approved versioned objects enter a hashed release.
  6. WitnessPublic routes, metadata, sources and withdrawal paths are verified outside the serving process.

Unknown is a result

Absence of evidence is not automatic evidence of absence. It is also not permission to imply benefit. We state what has not been measured, why current studies cannot settle the question and what a decisive study would require.

Authority separation

Content Authority
Defines scope, terminology and publication constitution.
Research
Finds and appraises sources; cannot publish alone.
Ingestion
Captures data with lineage; cannot interpret silently.
Editorial
Synthesizes bounded claims; cannot waive safety.
Safety
May block or withdraw content independently.
Commercial Data
Records products and relationships without ranking authority.
Publication
Activates immutable releases with rollback.
Witness & Evidence
Verifies public outcome and records proof.

Reviewed governance

Four-eyes publication control

Every daily publication candidate must pass four distinct automated review lanes against one immutable candidate hash before it can enter an atomic public release.

Independent-source constitution

Institutions are footnotes, not truth authorities.

Governmental, intergovernmental, regulatory, industry, trade-association and lobby sources may record only their own position, a legal status or a safety alert. They cannot define a tradition, establish a mechanism, support an effectiveness conclusion or control editorial ranking.

Health content requires an independent editorial core. Tradition worlds additionally require primary traditional material, independent scholarship or research, and a living practitioner or community perspective with disclosed provenance and conflicts.
