Editorial Policy and Formula Verification Standards
Health calculators and reference guides require transparent sourcing, strict separation between educational arithmetic and clinical diagnosis, and honest attribution.
Last updated: 2026-11-15
Source Selection & Formula Verification
Every calculator on GlucoBP must cite its primary peer-reviewed derivation study or official clinical society guideline (such as ADA, NGSP/IFCC, NICE, NKF/ASN, KDIGO, or AHA/ACC). Before publication, each calculator is tested against worked reference examples and unit boundary cases.
Honest Attribution & Review Status Labeling
We never display fabricated reviewer names, invented medical credentials, or unverified clinical approval seals. Each tool and guide displays its preparation attribution, its current verification status ("Formula verified against published reference; clinical review pending" unless a named licensed clinician review is recorded), and its last-updated date.
Separation of Public Educational Content and Advertising
Advertising is disabled by default unless explicitly configured on eligible public content pages. Ads are never rendered inside the authenticated tracker, admin CMS, auth pages, print views, or crisis alert banners.
