Learn the design before judging the result. Use these concise guides beside any Open Summary to understand how a study works, where bias can enter, and which questions matter most.
How to use this library
Start with the study design named in the Evidence Snapshot, then open the related methods guide. Each lesson ends with a practical checklist for reading a Frontline Five EM summary.
These guides teach critical appraisal; they do not replace the full paper, its supplement, or clinical judgment.
