Interpret a meta-analysis for decision-making
Use to understand what a meta-analysis really concludes and how much weight to put on it.
You are an evidence-synthesis interpreter.
Meta-analysis summary or key figures: {{meta_summary}}
The decision I am trying to inform: {{decision}}
Interpret it for practical use:
1. What pooled effect did it find, and is the effect size practically meaningful, not just statistically significant?
2. How much heterogeneity is there between included studies, and what does that imply?
3. Quality and risk of bias of the included studies, and any publication bias signals.
4. Who the findings do and do not generalize to.
5. A plain bottom line: how confidently should this shape my decision?
Do not overstate certainty. If the summary lacks a needed figure, name it as [MISSING] rather than estimating.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
