1. General Rules

#	Description	Result	Comments
1.1	Every claim, magnitude, label, recommendation, and statement in the QRS is literally supported by content in the source ER.	🟢
1.2	Where the ER uses cautious phrasing (“not formally studied”, “None documented in human trials to date”, “theoretical concern”, “data are limited”), the QRS uses the same phrasing.	🟢
1.3	The QRS never strengthens an ER claim (e.g., “not formally studied” → “not required”) or softens one (e.g., “do not use during pregnancy” → “use with caution during pregnancy”).	🟢
1.4	The QRS does not relabel an ER fact under a different decision category. A “Benefit-Modifying Factor” from ER section is not surfaced as a “Caution”; a “Risk-Modifying Factor” is not surfaced as a “Side Effect”; etc.	🟢
1.5	PubMed IDs, study citations, expert names, clinical trial identifiers (NCT*), and brand names appear in the QRS only if they appear in the source ER for the same fact.	🟢
1.6	The QRS does not introduce new attributions.	🟢

2. Focus, Tone & Audience

#	Description	Result	Comments
2.1	The QRS follows the tone of the ER, which is determined by the ER’s own language, phrasing, and framing.	🟢
2.2	The tone of the QRS is simultaneously expert, accessible, objective, and data-driven, but also empowering and encouraging	🟢
2.3	The QRS reads as a trusted, knowledgeable guide rather than a prescriptive doctor	🟢
2.4	The QRS avoids language that implies medical or clinical advice	🟢
2.5	The QRS “presents information” instead of “providing guidance”, “recommending”, or “advising”	🟢
2.6	The QRS never addresses “the reader” directly — it presents evidence, not guidance	🟢
2.7	The QRS is written in plain language, avoiding unnecessary medical jargon	🟢
2.8	Information is presented in a concise and very compact manner	🟢
2.9	It DOES NOT address the reader directly	🟢
2.10	The target audience is health- and longevity-oriented adults who are risk-aware, proactive, and actively seeking to optimize health or apply the intervention under review.	🟢
2.11	The target audience is willing to employ lifestyle and behavioral changes as well as follow protocols that may be inconvenient, costly, or require effort.	🟢
2.12	The document is NOT written for the general population, who are unwilling to employ lifestyle and behavioral changes or follow protocols that may be inconvenient, costly, or require effort.	🟢
2.13	Framing, takeaways, and risk/benefit weighting throughout the document reflect this audience, including where an intervention’s signal for the average person differs from its signal for this audience.	🟢
2.14	The document’s own voice frames usage in longevity terms, not “anti-aging” (e.g., “anti-aging clinics”, “anti-aging community”, “anti-aging medicine”). Proper names that contain “anti-aging” (e.g., “American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine”) are quoted verbatim.	🟢
2.15	The document’s own voice uses formal clinical and scientific terminology, not colloquial or consumer-grade language (e.g., “oral medication” not “pill(s)”; “injection” not “shot”; “adverse event” not “bad reaction”). Direct quotes from sources are exempt.	🟢

3. Template Integrity

#	Description	Result	Comments
3.1	The following labels and headings on the QRS are fixed and not modified: Card and section headings: “Protocol”, “Time to effect”, “Benefits”, “Risk & Side Effects”, “Monitoring”, “Qualitative Assessment”; Gate headings: “Contraindications”, “Key Interactions”; Tier labels: “High”, “Medium”, “Low”, “Speculative”; Table column headers in Monitoring: “Marker”, “Target”, “Why”	🟢
3.2	All “…” from the [qrs_template] are present in the the QRS.	🟢
3.3	Spans that are not addressed in a checklist item are left unchanged	🟢

4. Formatting

#	Description	Result	Comments
4.1	When the source ER section is empty, the QRS uses the ER’s own empty-state phrasing verbatim. Typical phrasings are “None documented in human trials to date” and “Not formally studied”	N/A	No source ER section is empty; empty High/Medium benefit and High risk tiers are handled by display:none per 12.5/13.5.
4.2	Where the ER presents a bulleted item as “Label: content”, the QRS uses the ER’s bold label verbatim as the cell or row label.	🟢
4.3	Labels are not paraphrased, abbreviated, or invented.	🟢
4.4	The QRS DOES NOT use emoji indicators (no 🟩, 🟥, 🟨, etc.). Color and emphasis are conveyed through CSS and bold labels.	🟢
4.5	The QRS is designed to render on one A4 page. Any section that has more content in the ER than fits the per-section budget is condensed by the LLM, not extended onto a second page.	🟢

5. Metadata

No content after an em-dash, en-dash, or hyphen-dash (e.g., “— dose reduction required”, “— reduced efficacy”) — these trailing clauses are stripped. Just the key fact.	🟢
8.5	Parenthetical qualifiers from the ER bullet — time windows, severity classes, threshold values, clinical staging — ARE preserved as part of the item, kept as concise as possible (shortened or trimmed where needed to fit the one-page budget, but never dropped entirely).	🟢
8.6	When the ER uses ranking notation inside parens (e.g., “>” for severity ordering) that depends on an explanatory phrase to interpret, normalize the items to a plain comma-separated list rather than carrying through the bare symbol.	N/A	ER contraindications do not use ranking notation inside parentheses.
8.7	The section is left empty ONLY IF the ER’s Key Interactions & Contraindications section identifies no population, condition, or scenario for which the intervention should be avoided, deferred, or used only under specialist supervision.	🟢

9.6	When the ER uses ranking notation inside parens (e.g., “>” for severity ordering) that depends on an explanatory phrase to interpret, normalize the items to a plain comma-separated list rather than carrying through the bare symbol.	N/A	ER interactions do not use ranking notation inside parentheses.
9.7	The section is left empty ONLY IF the ER’s Key Interactions & Contraindications section identifies no interaction, additive effect, or exposure that changes how the intervention is used.	🟢
9.8	If the section is left empty, an HTML comment inside the [caution_items] span records the ER basis for the absence, naming or quoting the ER text relied on. E.g.	N/A	Key Interactions section is not empty.

Issues 26/08/2026 07:25

Pass rate 100.00%. No issues found.

Issues 26/08/2026 07:15

1. 7.4 — Specialist “local therapy”: [at_a_glance] uses “local therapy”, a specialist local-versus-systemic cancer-treatment classification a non-specialist would not use unprompted.

Fixes 26/08/2026 07:15

1. 7.4 — Specialist local therapy: Replaced “after local therapy” in [at_a_glance] with “after prostate treatment”.

Issues 26/08/2026 07:02

1. 1.3 — Strengthened dose and population: At-a-glance (line 433) states modified citrus pectin “is five grams one to three times daily” and associates a slower-rising prostate-cancer blood marker without the ER Conclusion hedges “usually at about five grams” and “after local therapy,” generalizing both the usual dose and the study population.

Fixes 26/08/2026 07:02

1. 1.3 — Strengthened dose and population: Restored ER Conclusion hedges in at-a-glance to “usually about five grams” and “after local therapy,” and condensed nearby wording so the blurb stays at 60 words.

Issues 26/08/2026 06:51

1. 1.3 — Fibrosis time-to-effect strengthened: Time-to-effect cell time_3 pairs the label “Less Organ Fibrosis” with the value “6 months”, which reads as a 6-month benefit. The ER net reading is that human fibrosis-marker data do not support a benefit; Practical Considerations only notes that the six-month hypertension trial showed no fibrosis-marker effect.

2. 7.4 — Clinical-register “scarring markers”: At-a-glance uses “scarring markers”, a specialist clinical-register phrase. The ER Conclusion uses “scarring-related blood markers” and “heart-scarring experiment”; a non-specialist would not use “scarring markers” unprompted or know it means organ-scarring blood tests.

Fixes 26/08/2026 06:51

1. 1.3 — Fibrosis time-to-effect value: Changed time_3_value from “6 months” to “No effect at 6 months” so the cell no longer reads as a 6-month fibrosis benefit.

2. 7.4 — Plain-language scarring tests: Replaced at-a-glance “scarring markers” with “heart-scarring blood tests” and dropped “extra” before “potassium” to stay at 60 words.

Issues 26/08/2026 06:38

1. 11.1 — Missing third time-to-effect: The ER Time to effect bullet names three aspects (urinary metals within 1–6 days, PSA doubling-time changes at 6–12 months, and no fibrosis-marker effect in the six-month hypertension trial). The QRS fills only time_1 and time_2 and leaves time_3 empty with display:none (QRS lines 503–513).
2. 12.3 — Conflicted qualifier on fibrosis: The Low benefits line appends the qualifier “conflicted” after “less organ fibrosis” (QRS benefits_low) instead of the key fact only.

Fixes 26/08/2026 06:38

1. 11.1 — Missing third time-to-effect: Populated time_3 with Less Organ Fibrosis / 6 months / The six-month hypertension trial showed no fibrosis-marker effect, and removed display:none from that cell.
2. 12.3 — Conflicted qualifier on fibrosis: Removed the “, conflicted” qualifier from the Low benefits line, leaving “less organ fibrosis”.

Issues 26/08/2026 06:28

1. 7.4 — Clinical-register potassium load: [at_a_glance] (line 433) uses “potassium load”. A non-specialist would not use “load” unprompted for the powder’s potassium contribution; plain language such as “extra potassium” is required.

Fixes 26/08/2026 06:28

1. 7.4 — Clinical-register potassium load: Replaced “potassium load” in [at_a_glance] with “extra potassium”. Word count remains 60; the phrasing matches the ER’s “extra potassium” wording.

Issues 26/08/2026 06:17

1. 1.1 / 1.2 / 1.3 / 7.3 — At-a-glance claim strength: Line 433 says studies “linked” MCP to outcomes and that potassium load “matters in kidney disease”. The ER Conclusion (lines 390–391) uses “associated” and limits the potassium warning to advanced kidney disease (and potassium-raising drugs).
2. 4.3 — Time-to-effect labels abbreviated: time_1_label “Slowed PSA rise” (line 483) shortens the ER heading “Slowed PSA Rise After Local Prostate Therapy”; time_2_label “Urinary metal excretion” (line 495) paraphrases “Increased Urinary Excretion of Lead, Cadmium, and Arsenic”.

Fixes 26/08/2026 06:17

1. 1.1 / 1.2 / 1.3 / 7.3 — At-a-glance claim strength: Replaced “linked” with ER “associated” and “kidney disease” with “advanced kidney disease” in at-a-glance. Dropped “an” before “empty stomach” so the paragraph stays at 60 words.
2. 4.3 — Time-to-effect labels abbreviated: Restored time_1_label to “Slowed PSA Rise After Local Prostate Therapy” and time_2_label to “Increased Urinary Excretion of Lead, Cadmium, and Arsenic”.
