Generated Narrative: CodeSystem certainty-type

This case-sensitive code system http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/certainty-type defines the following codes:

CodeDisplayDefinition
Overall Overall certaintyOverall certainty of evidence (quality of evidence).
RiskOfBias Risk of biasmethodologic concerns reducing internal validity.
Inconsistency Inconsistencyconcerns that findings are not similar enough to support certainty.
Indirectness Indirectnessconcerns reducing external validity.
Imprecision Imprecisionfuzzy or wide variability.
PublicationBias Publication biaslikelihood that what is published misrepresents what is available to publish.
DoseResponseGradient Dose response gradienthigher certainty due to dose response relationship.
PlausibleConfounding Plausible confoundinghigher certainty due to risk of bias in opposite direction.
LargeEffect Large effecthigher certainty due to large effect size.
