GRADE guidelines - best practices using the GRADE framework
The 2011 JCE series provides a 20-part guide for systematic review and health technology assessment authors, guideline panelists and methodologists on how to apply the GRADE methodology framework in more detail. Clinicians and policy-making users and anyone new to GRADE may want to consider first reading the 6-part BMJ series from 2008.
NEW: the links have now been updated to provide free access to the full text and pdf through the JCE home page rather than Medline links that point to Elevier's Journal resource.
