The GRADE working group is an international working group of individuals who develop and provide the GRADE approach. Here we have gathered various information on the GRADE approach. |
GRADE Handbook
The GRADE Handbook introduces the process for using the GRADE approach.

- GRADE guidelines: 2. Framing the question and deciding on important outcomes
- GRADE guidelines: 3. Rating the quality of evidence
- GRADE guidelines: 4. Rating the quality of evidence-study limitations (risk of bias)
- GRADE guidelines: 5. Rating the quality of evidence-publication bias
- GRADE guidelines 6. Rating the quality of evidence-imprecision
- GRADE guidelines: 7. Rating the quality of evidence-inconsistency
- GRADE guidelines: 8. Rating the quality of evidence-indirectness
- GRADE guidelines: 9. Rating up the quality of evidence
- GRADE guidelines: 10. Considering resource use and rating the quality of economic evidence
- GRADE guidelines: 11. Making an overall rating of confidence in effect estimates for a single outcome and for all outcomes
