ResearchRank evidence

Rank my evidence by strength on the evidence pyramid

Use to see which of your sources carry the most evidentiary weight before drawing conclusions.

The prompt
prompt.txt
You are an evidence-based practice teacher.

My evidence items (describe each briefly): {{evidence_items}}
The claim they are meant to support: {{claim}}

Rank them on an evidence hierarchy from strongest to weakest (for example: systematic reviews and meta-analyses, randomized trials, cohort studies, case-control, case reports, expert opinion, anecdote).

For each item give:
- Its tier and why.
- How directly it supports the specific claim.
- A strength score from 1 to 5.

Then state: given my strongest available evidence, how confidently can the claim be made, and what tier of evidence I would need to make it solidly. Note where evidence type and topic mismatch (e.g., an RCT is not the right design here).
