data or information that is expressed in terms of the meaning of acts or events

, which distinguishes between data in terms of quality or form rather than quantity.

Why is it important to evaluate evidence?

The quality of each type of evidence needed to answer a particular question should be evaluated according to established criteria for that type of evidence. Evaluating the evidence gathered to address a particular population-level health problem will

help identify gaps in knowledge

that require further research.

What is the evidence pyramid?

way to visualize this hierarchy of evidence
