GRADE Evidence Profile ā Support
GRADE Evidence Profile assists with outcome-level GRADE certainty assessment, evidence-profile preparation, and publication-ready footnotes.
Getting help
For technical problems, methodological feedback, or suspected errors, please contact Jithin T Joseph by email.
When reporting a problem, please include:
- the outcome being assessed;
- the study design or evidence base;
- the GRADE domain involved;
- a short description of what occurred;
- what you expected the plugin to do; and
- the plugin version, if visible.
Please do not include confidential patient information, protected health information, passwords, API keys, or other sensitive personal information in a support request.
Useful issues to report
Feedback is particularly helpful for:
- inappropriate downgrading or upgrading;
- incorrect interpretation of risk of bias;
- inappropriate use of IĀ² or other heterogeneity measures;
- imprecision judgments that do not reflect clinically meaningful thresholds;
- publication-bias reasoning;
- inconsistent certainty ratings;
- incorrect footnotes; or
- situations where the plugin should have identified insufficient information.
Methodological questions
GRADE assessments often require judgment. If you disagree with an assessment, provide the relevant methodological details and, where possible, the applicable decision threshold or source evidence so the judgment can be reconsidered transparently.
Independent status
GRADE Evidence Profile is independently developed and is not an official product of, affiliated with, or endorsed by the GRADE Working Group or GRADEpro.
For definitive methodological guidance, consult current official GRADE resources.
Research and publication use
Researchers are encouraged to independently verify plugin-generated judgments before including them in systematic reviews, meta-analyses, manuscripts, guidelines, or other scholarly work.
Use of the plugin does not constitute an independent human reviewer when a review protocol requires duplicate human assessment.
Privacy
Please review the GRADE Evidence Profile Privacy Policy for information about data handling.
