Review protocol
- Fit and conflict screening
Expertise, office, case connections, funding and relevant interests are recorded.
- Anonymous or named review
Chosen for safety, sensitivity and transparency; comments and editorial disposition are retained.
- Structured review
Questions, sources, method, contrary evidence, reasoning, law, limits and possible harm.
- Editorial response
Acceptance, partial acceptance or rejection is reasoned; material change creates a new version.
- Public review status
Only a completed process earns the external-peer-review label; review does not endorse every conclusion.
