Level of Evidence and Strength of Recommendations in US Medical Society Clinical Practice Guidelines, 2019–2023: A Cross-Sectional Analysis

Among recently issued CPG recommendations, overall SOR-LOE rating concordance was moderate, although recommendations with strong SOR ratings had minimal rating concordance. CPG authors could provide clearer rationales for strong recommendations when the corresponding evidence does not reflect commensurate certainty.

CPG authors could provide clearer rationales for strong recommendations when the corresponding evidence does not reflect commensurate certainty.
