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. | 🟢 | Glance, protocol, time-to-effect, benefit/risk labels, gates and monitoring rows all trace to ER text (e.g., Protocol ER L387-390, Practical Considerations L426, Monitoring table L450-460). |
| 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. | 🟢 | Cautious phrasing kept, e.g., ‘food amounts are not implicated’ (ER L368) and heartburn timing ‘as described in one review’ (ER L426). |
| 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”). | 🟢 | No strengthening or softening found; avoid/caution qualifiers match ER. |
| 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. | 🟢 | Contraindications from ER ‘Populations who should avoid’; interactions from the ER interaction bullets; no modifying factors surfaced. |
| 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. | 🟢 | No PMIDs, citations, expert names, NCT IDs or brand names in the QRS. |
| 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 | 🟢 | Technical terms retained are ER bold labels or standard marker names; lay glosses added (e.g., ‘an older antidepressant class’, ‘slow stomach emptying’). |
| 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. | 🟢 | No ‘anti-aging’ wording. |
| 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)”; “oral” / “administered orally” not “taken by mouth” / “given by mouth”; “injection” not “shot”; “adverse event” not “bad reaction”). This holds on EVERY surface, including the QRS lede — the stricter plain-language bar (see 2.7) does not license lay phrasing for route of administration. Direct quotes from sources are exempt. | 🟢 | No colloquial route/administration terms; ‘Oral medications’ used. |
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” | 🟢 | All fixed headings, gate headings, tier labels and column headers unchanged. |
| 3.2 | All “…” from the [qrs_template] are present in the the QRS. | 🟢 | All template spans present (page_title through qualitative_item_#). |
| 3.3 | Spans that are not addressed in a checklist item are left unchanged | 🟢 | Head/CSS and non-variable spans (website=…) identical to template. |
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 used by the QRS is empty. |
| 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. | 🟢 | Protocol labels and interaction labels use ER bold labels verbatim; Stimulants label is the ER label minus the MAOI part moved to Contraindications. |
| 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. | 🟢 | No emoji in QRS. |
| 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. | 🟢 | Sections condensed from the ER (source-only audit; no rendering performed). |
5. Metadata

| 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). | 🟢 | Parenthetical qualifiers (bitter orange extracts/products, large amounts of whole peel or pith, concentrated extracts, etc.) preserved. |
| 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 uses no ranking notation. |
| 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. |
🟢 | Section populated; ER names populations to avoid. |

| 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 uses no ranking notation. |
| 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. |
🟢 | Section populated. |

Pass rate 100.00%. No issues found.
Issues 26/09/2026 14:08
- 7.2 — Second main risk omitted: The at-a-glance (QRS line 433) states “Main risks come from bitter orange extracts” but drops contact allergy to aged peel oil, the second main risk named in the ER Conclusion (ER line 489).
Fixes 26/09/2026 14:08
- 7.2 — Second main risk omitted: Rewrote the at-a-glance risk sentence from “Main risks come from bitter orange extracts, which raise blood pressure” to “Main risks: blood-pressure rises from bitter orange extracts and skin allergy to aged peel oil”, trimming other wording to stay at 70 words.
Issues 26/09/2026 14:04
- 2.7 — Unexplained surgical and drug jargon: Contraindications (QRS lines 544-545) list “Monoamine oxidase inhibitors” and “Partial gastrectomy, vagotomy or bariatric surgery, or gastroparesis” without the plain-language explanations the ER supplies (ER lines 345, 353, 366).
Fixes 26/09/2026 14:04
- 2.7 — Unexplained surgical and drug jargon: Added “(an older antidepressant class)” after “Monoamine oxidase inhibitors” and replaced “Partial gastrectomy, vagotomy or bariatric surgery, or gastroparesis” with the ER’s plain terms “Partial stomach removal, stomach-nerve or weight-loss surgery, or slow stomach emptying”.
Issues 26/09/2026 14:01
- 1.2 — Cautious target phrasing dropped: Monitoring marker_11_target (line 716) reads “Change from own baseline”, omitting the ER’s cautious phrasing “No established target” from the Cycling or rowing power row.
Fixes 26/09/2026 14:01
- 1.2 — Cautious target phrasing restored: Changed marker_11_target from “Change from own baseline” to “No established target; change from own baseline”, matching the ER’s Monitoring table.
Issues 26/09/2026 13:58
- 2.15 — Lay terms replace clinical terms: Contraindication item 4 (QRS line 545) reads “Partial stomach removal, stomach-nerve or weight-loss surgery, or slow stomach emptying”, dropping the ER’s formal terms partial gastrectomy, vagotomy, bariatric surgery and gastroparesis (ER line 366).
Fixes 26/09/2026 13:58
- 2.15 — Clinical terms restored: Changed contraindication item 4 from “Partial stomach removal, stomach-nerve or weight-loss surgery, or slow stomach emptying” to “Partial gastrectomy, vagotomy or bariatric surgery, or gastroparesis”, matching the ER terms.
Issues 26/09/2026 13:55
- 1.3 — Softened avoid and approximate dose: Key Interactions line 557 drops the ER’s “Avoid combining with bitter orange” for stimulants (ER line 353), and Protocol line 447 drops “about” from the ER’s “about 2–6 g” zest amount (ER line 387).
Fixes 26/09/2026 13:55
- 1.3 — Restored avoid and approximate dose: Changed the stimulants interaction from “bitter orange” to “avoid combining with bitter orange”, and action_1_value from “2–6 g fresh zest daily” to “About 2–6 g fresh zest daily”, matching ER lines 353 and 387.
Issues 26/09/2026 13:52
- 2.7 — Unexplained surgical jargon: The Contraindications item at QRS line 545 uses “Partial gastrectomy, vagotomy or bariatric surgery, or gastroparesis” without the plain-language equivalents the ER provides (ER lines 345, 366).
- 9.2 — MAOIs duplicated from Contraindications: The Key Interactions item at QRS line 557 repeats monoamine oxidase inhibitors with bitter orange, which already appear as a Contraindication at QRS line 544.
Fixes 26/09/2026 13:52
- 2.7 — Surgical jargon replaced: Changed “Partial gastrectomy, vagotomy or bariatric surgery, or gastroparesis” to “Partial stomach removal, stomach-nerve or weight-loss surgery, or slow stomach emptying”, using the ER’s own plain-language terms.
- 9.2 — MAOI duplicate removed: Removed monoamine oxidase inhibitors from the Key Interactions stimulant item, leaving “Stimulants (pseudoephedrine, phenylephrine, caffeine): bitter orange”, since MAOIs are already a Contraindication.
