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. 🟢 All values (protocol, time-to-effect, benefits, risks, gates, markers) trace to the 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. 🟢 Speculative tiers preserve the ER’s tentative framing.
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”). 🟢 Contraindications kept as hard stops; benefits not overstated.
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 and interactions drawn from the ER’s own category.
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. 🟢 Only “Xuezhikang” appears, which is present in the ER Protocol. No PMIDs/NCTs surfaced.
1.6 The QRS does not introduce new attributions. 🟢 No new names or sources.

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. 🟢 Matches ER’s objective, cautionary framing.
2.2 The tone of the QRS is simultaneously expert, accessible, objective, and data-driven, but also empowering and encouraging 🟢 Consistent throughout.
2.3 The QRS reads as a trusted, knowledgeable guide rather than a prescriptive doctor 🟢 Presents facts, not orders.
2.4 The QRS avoids language that implies medical or clinical advice 🟢 Footer disclaimer present; content is descriptive.
2.5 The QRS “presents information” instead of “providing guidance”, “recommending”, or “advising” 🟢 No prescriptive verbs.
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 biomarker table where appropriate.
2.8 Information is presented in a concise and very compact manner 🟢 Dense, single-page layout.
2.9 It DOES NOT address the reader directly 🟢 No “you”.
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. 🟢 Framing fits this audience.
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. 🟢 Protocol assumes third-party testing 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. 🟢 Consistent.
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. 🟢 Emphasis on product quality and monitoring fits proactive audience.
2.14 The document’s own voice frames usage in longevity terms, not “anti-aging”. Proper names that contain “anti-aging” are quoted verbatim. 🟢 No “anti-aging” language.
2.15 The document’s own voice uses formal clinical and scientific terminology, not colloquial or consumer-grade language. Direct quotes from sources are exempt. 🟢 Uses “medication”/”drugs” per ER; no “pills”/”shots”.

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 intact.

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. 🟢 Monitoring row labels use ER biomarker names verbatim.
4.3 Labels are not paraphrased, abbreviated, or invented. 🟢 Marker names and gate items faithful.
4.4 The QRS DOES NOT use emoji indicators (no 🟩, 🟥, 🟨, etc.). Color and emphasis are conveyed through CSS and bold labels. 🟢 No emojis in QRS body.
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. 🟢 Content condensed to fit one page.
