In the recent redesign we removed the evidence pyramids in the results panel, after some feedback we have just reinstated them:
The evidence pyramid concept is explained in this diagram and accompanying text:
Evidence pyramids are not perfect, for instance a poor systematic review is no match for a good RCT. But our evidence pyramids are useful in attempting to convey the potential level of evidence for each result. We use 5 levels in our simplified pyramid and they are colour coded to match the narrative description of the record (e.g ‘systematic review’ is green or ‘key primary research’ is dark blue) and that corresponds to the same colour in the filter results column:
In short, these are a simply tool to help convey the potential robustness of the evidence.
SPECTACULAR, SIMPLY SPECTACULAR, thank you very much, both for the reader and for teaching purposes, and training for all branches of medicine and health, the HAYNES pyramid is an approximate but very effective tool, it serves adequately as a visual filter academic, very fast, and if you link it to the type of outcome of the PICO clinical question, it even helps us to use the appropriate articles in the academic searches carried out, it has many uses, for example, it is extremely useful, as a doctor in your practice clinic with patients, as a researcher, and as a university professor, I can only say to you, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

ESPECTACULAR, SIMPLEMENTE ESPECTACULAR, muchas gracias, tanto para el lector como para efectos de docencia, y entrenamiento para todas las ramas de la medicina y la salud, la piramide de HAYNES es una herramienta aproximada pero muy eficaz, sirve de manera adecuada como filtro visual académico, muy rápido, y si tú lo ligas al tipo de outcome de la pregunta clinica PICO, incluso nos ayuda a usar los artículos adecuados en las búsquedas académicas realizadas, tiene muchos usos, por ejemplo, es extremadamente útil, como médico en su práctica clínica con pacientes, como investigador, y como profesor universitario, solo puedo decirles a ustedes, MUCHAS GRACIAS!
Solo i migliori si mettono in discussione e giungono a rivedere le loro idee! Grazie per aver reinserito un utilissimo strumento guida per un approccio EBM a svariati quesiti clinici.

I only wish I had had this when I was in grad school!
