Research & Medical Disclaimer

Evidentia is built to help users discover, inspect, organize, and understand scientific evidence. It is not a medical device claim, clinical diagnosis service, treatment system, or substitute for independent professional judgment.

Not medical advice

Content generated by Evidentia is for research, informational, and educational purposes. It does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, prognosis, prescribing, treatment recommendations, or a recommendation to start, stop, or change a medication or therapy.

For personal health decisions, consult an appropriately qualified healthcare professional who can evaluate your individual circumstances.

Not a clinical decision or emergency service

Evidentia is not designed to diagnose disease, triage emergencies, monitor a patient, or provide time-critical clinical instructions. Do not use Evidentia as the sole basis for a clinical or safety decision.

If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, contact your local emergency services or seek immediate in-person medical care.

Automated research outputs can be wrong

Evidence scores, confidence labels, PICO matches, study-type labels, relevance scores, extracted result sentences, support/contradiction signals, summaries, and syntheses are automated outputs. They can misread an abstract, miss context, fail to retrieve relevant literature, or classify a study incorrectly.

An automated label such as “Supports” or “Contradicts” is a prioritization signal based on retrieved text, not a substitute for reading the publication, evaluating methodology, extracting outcomes, assessing risk of bias, or applying a validated evidence-grading framework.

Not automatically a systematic review

A search run in Evidentia is not, by itself, a systematic review, scoping review, meta-analysis, guideline, or regulatory evidence assessment. Formal reviews may require protocol registration, multiple databases, validated search strategies, duplicate screening, full-text review, risk-of-bias assessment, reproducible extraction, statistical methods, and other procedures not guaranteed by the service.

Source limitations

PubMed and other indexed sources do not contain every relevant study, and not every PubMed record includes a complete abstract or free full text. Retrieval can be affected by search wording, indexing, availability, rate limits, publication date, and external-service interruptions.

Always verify citations, extracted findings, and material conclusions against the original source. See the PubMed / NCBI Notice.

No professional relationship

Using Evidentia does not create a doctor-patient, pharmacist-patient, researcher-subject, consultant-client, fiduciary, or other professional relationship between you and Evidentia or its operator(s).

No identifiable health information

Do not enter identifiable patient information, protected health information, or confidential research-subject data. Evidentia is not currently offered as a HIPAA-compliant clinical record system or as a substitute for an institution's approved research-data environment.

Researcher and user responsibility

You remain responsible for study inclusion/exclusion decisions, interpretation, citation accuracy, academic integrity, clinical judgment, and compliance with your institution's policies, IRB requirements, journal rules, funding requirements, and applicable law.

No guarantee of accuracy or fitness

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Evidentia makes no warranty that an analysis is complete, current, accurate, clinically meaningful, publishable, or suitable for a specific research, medical, policy, educational, or commercial purpose.

Verification rule: treat every automated Evidentia conclusion as a starting point. Follow the citation, inspect the source, and apply human judgment before relying on it.
