Six-dimension breakdown
Evidence & sources
The Vyvata score's Evidence dimension measures the quality of published RCT support for a product's active ingredients at the label dose. Our source hierarchy: double-blind RCTs in MEDLINE-indexed journals > single-blind RCTs > open-label trials > observational studies > mechanism papers > N=1 case studies (anecdotes). Predatory journals and manufacturer-authored studies without independent replication are weighted down.
Product-specific evidence citations for this item are in How we scored this, above. For the full framework and evidence hierarchy, see the methodology page.
How to read the Evidence dimension
- 80–100: Multiple double-blind RCTs in indexed journals directly testing this product OR the exact ingredients at the exact dose.
- 60–79: Single double-blind RCT + supporting ingredient literature at the studied dose.
- 40–59: Open-label trials + ingredient literature; no product-specific double-blind evidence.
- 20–39: Ingredient literature only; no product-specific trials or trials in predatory venues.
- 0–19: No credible evidence base or unverifiable claims.
