Evaluation Framework

Four-Lens Review

1. Mechanism Lens

• Is the biological mechanism described clearly?
• Is language specific enough to avoid hand-waving?

2. Evidence Lens

• What evidence tier supports the claim?
• What is established vs early vs unresolved?

3. Boundary Lens

• Where does the approach break down?
• What contraindications or uncertainty zones matter?

4. Decision Lens

• How does this compare to standard/surgical pathways?
• What is the escalation path if conservative options fail?

Output Standard

Every public explainer should leave the reader with:

1. A clearer problem frame.
2. Better questions to ask clinicians.
3. Fewer assumptions presented as certainty.
