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. | 🟢 | Lede, protocol, time-to-effect, gates, tiers and monitoring all trace to ER text (Conclusion, Therapeutic Protocol, Practical Considerations, Key Interactions, Monitoring). |
| 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. | 🟢 | Hedges kept: “is common practice” (action_3_sub), “Reported in one trial” (time_3_sub), “possible”/”may” in interaction consequences. |
| 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. |
| 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 “Populations who should avoid”; interactions from “Documented”/”Theoretical” lists; risks from Potential Risks. |
| 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, NCT IDs, expert or brand names on the sheet. |
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 expert, accessible, objective, and data-driven | 🟢 | |
| 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 | 🟢 | No second-person address. |
| 2.7 | The QRS is written in plain language, avoiding unnecessary medical jargon | 🟢 | Technical terms limited to ER labels/markers (NSAIDs, eGFR, MoCA). |
| 2.8 | Information is presented in a concise and very compact manner | 🟢 | |
| 2.9 | 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. | 🟢 | Lede addresses “health-focused adults”. |
| 2.10 | The target audience is willing to employ lifestyle and behavioral changes as well as follow protocols that may be inconvenient, costly, or require effort. | 🟢 | |
| 2.11 | 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. | 🟢 | |
| 2.12 | 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. | 🟢 | Lede contrasts dementia-trial signal with absence of aging data for this audience. |
| 2.13 | 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. |
| 2.14 | 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. | 🟢 | “oral” used (lede, action_1_label); no lay route terms. |
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, tier labels and column headers unchanged. |
| 3.2 | Every element carrying a data-qrs-var attribute in [qrs_template] is present in the QRS with the same name | 🟢 | All template data-qrs-var names present; # rows expanded to 1..3 and 1..5. |
| 3.3 | Everything outside the data-qrs-var spans — markup, text, styles, comments — is as in the template; spans that no checklist item addresses are left unchanged as well | 🟢 | Diff against template shows changes only inside variable spans, display:none on empty tiers, and metadata values. |
4. Formatting
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4.1 | An empty ER section never produces visible empty-state text in the QRS: the corresponding region is hidden or left empty. Phrases such as “None documented in human trials to date” or “Not formally studied” appear only where the ER uses them for a fact the QRS carries over. | 🟢 | Empty High benefit and High/Medium risk tiers hidden; “No established target” used only where the ER uses it. |
| 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. | 🟢 | “Trial dose (oral)”, “Time of day”, “Baseline biomarkers” and contraindication/interaction labels match ER bold labels. |
| 4.3 | Labels are not paraphrased, abbreviated, or invented. | 🟢 | Interaction labels trimmed of glosses/examples only, at least one example kept. |
| 4.4 | The QRS DOES NOT use emoji indicators (no 🟩, 🟥, 🟨, etc.). Color and emphasis are conveyed through CSS and bold labels. | 🟢 | No emoji indicators. |
| 4.5 | The QRS is designed to render on one A4 page. It fails this item only for one of four things: a trailing clause after a dash, an optional gloss, an example list left untrimmed, or a repetition. Nothing else is cut to fit. | 🟢 | No trailing dash clauses, glosses or untrimmed example lists; no repetition found. |
5. Metadata
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5.1 | The metadata is placed inside a single HTML comment that is the first element after “<!doctype html>” and before any other comment, head, or body content. | 🟢 | |
| 5.2 | Inside that HTML comment the YAML block is delimited by a line “—” opening and a line “—” closing. Text before the opening “—” is permitted but is not parsed as YAML. | 🟢 | |
| 5.3 | The metadata is not visible in any rendered view of the QRS and is not surfaced by any other element on the sheet. | 🟢 | |
| 5.4 | All frontmatter values are trimmed: no leading or trailing whitespace, no surrounding quotes unless the value contains a colon, bracket, or leading special character that requires YAML quoting. | 🟢 | duration quoted because it contains a colon. |
| 5.5 | The filename of the source ER is stated as “er_filename: [er_filename]” | 🟢 | |

| 5.9 | The nickname of the AI is the full name without the version number, with all remaining words joined by hyphens (e.g., Opus, Sonnet, Grok, Gemini-Flash, GPT); when the full name has no version number or is “Unknown”, the nickname equals the full name | 🟢 | Opus |
| 5.10 | The full name of the AI used to create the document is stated as “qrs_creator_ai_fullname: [qrs_creator_ai_fullname]” | 🟢 | |
| 5.11 | The full name of the AI consists of the model name (the word or words directly before the version number, leaving out the first if there is more than one, e.g., Claude Opus 5.5 → Opus 5.5), the model version number and the variant (if any) as stated in the system prompt or developer instructions of the creating model, with every word capitalized and without product, effort or pricing names (e.g., Opus X.Y, Sonnet X.Y, Grok X.Y, Gemini X.Y Flash, GPT X.Y), the model name alone when the system prompt or developer instructions name a model without a version number (e.g., Grok), or “Unknown” when neither the system prompt nor the developer instructions of the creating model name a model | 🟢 | Opus 5.5 |

7. At-A-Glance Section
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7.1 | [at_a_glance] opens by saying what the intervention is — its kind (e.g., dietary supplement, prescription medication, peptide, plant, procedure, practice) — and what it is used for, in plain language, before any verdict on the evidence | 🟢 | Opens with “a synthetic memory drug from the 1970s, is sold online to sharpen thinking and is used in Chinese hospitals after brain injury”. |
| 7.2 | [at_a_glance] is dense, execution-oriented summary of the ER Conclusion section |
🟢 | Condenses Conclusion: weak/mixed evidence, null oral trial, no aging data, mild side effects, kidney, mislabeling. |
| 7.3 | [at_a_glance] is no longer than 70 words | 🟢 | 70 words (script count). |
| 7.4 | Every fact in [at_a_glance] is supported by a distinct passage in the ER. | 🟢 | Each fact maps to Conclusion or Motivation passages. |
| 7.5 | It DOES NOT use acronyms or technical classifications that require specialist knowledge, uses plain-language terms instead | 🟢 | |
| 7.6 | It DOES NOT cite specific trials (names, years, sample sizes, p-values) | 🟢 | |
| 7.7 | It DOES NOT cite effect sizes, relative risks, or statistical results | 🟢 |
8. Contraindications
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8.1 | The section is derived from the ER Key Interactions & Contraindications section |

| 8.3 | Individual [stop_items] are formatted as <li></li> | 🟢 | |
| 8.4 | Items are as concise as possible. No trailing explanations, no elaborations, no mechanistic rationale, no attributions, no citations, no study details. 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). | 🟢 | “Severe” qualifier 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. |
| 8.8 | If the section is left empty, an HTML comment inside the [stop_items] span records the ER basis for the absence, naming or quoting the ER text relied on. E.g. | N/A | Section not empty. |
9. Key Interactions
| # | Description | Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| 9.1 | The section is derived from the ER Key Interactions & Contraindications section |
🟢 | |
| 9.2 | [caution_items] represent the ER’s documented interactions — the items under its “Documented interactions:” label — excluding any that are already listed as Contraindications and any entry phrased as no interaction found | 🟢 | Four documented interactions; physical activity (no interaction found) correctly excluded. |
| 9.3 | [caution_theoretical_items] represent the ER’s theoretical interactions — the items under its “Theoretical interactions (inferred from mechanism, not studied in humans):” label | 🟢 | All six theoretical interactions listed. |
| 9.4 | The ER placeholder “None identified” is never an item: it means that group is empty | 🟢 | |
| 9.5 | Individual [caution_items] and [caution_theoretical_items] are formatted as <li></li>. The template’s bold “Theoretical (inferred from mechanism)” sub-heading is the only marker of the second list’s status: no item carries “(theoretical)”, “inferred from” or a mechanism clause | 🟢 | |
| 9.6 | Items are as concise as possible. No trailing explanations, no elaborations, no mechanistic rationale, no attributions, no citations, no study details. 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. | 🟢 | |
| 9.7 | Parenthetical qualifiers from the ER bullet — example drug lists, 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). | 🟢 | Example drugs kept; “regular use” qualifier on NSAIDs kept; (S)-oxiracetam qualifier on food kept. |
| 9.8 | 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. |
| 9.9 | If the ER’s theoretical group is empty, the whole Theoretical block — the caution_theoretical span with its sub-heading and list — is hidden with style="display:none", not removed: its spans stay in place, empty. |
N/A | ER theoretical group is not empty. |
| 9.10 | 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. |
| 9.11 | 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, and the Theoretical block is hidden per 9.9. E.g. | N/A | Section not empty. |

Issues 10/31/2026 17:26
Pass rate 100.00%. No issues found.
Issues 10/31/2026 17:24
- 2.7 — Jargon in time label: The Time to effect label “Challenge models” (line 500) is research jargon a non-specialist would not understand; it is not an ER bold label that must be carried verbatim.
Fixes 10/31/2026 17:24
- 2.7 — Jargon in time label: Changed time_2_label from “Challenge models” to “Induced memory impairment” and time_2_sub from “Acute effects in induced memory impairment” to “Acute effects in healthy volunteers” (ER: healthy-volunteer scopolamine challenge, Preda 1993).
