Quick Paper Triage
Decides whether a paper is worth a full read: question, method, result, limits and reliability in five minutes.
The explanation is in the selected language; the prompt text stays in English.
Why use it
For researchers who must sort a pile of papers fast: question, method, result, limits and a quality read in five minutes to decide if a paper deserves a full read.
How to use it
Paste the abstract or full text into [PASTE], your own research question into [QUESTION] and the field into [FIELD]. Open a separate chat for each paper.
Short example
Abstract: a randomized trial of caudal block and pain; question: pain assessment in children; field: pediatric anesthesia.
What to expect
A seven-line summary, a yes, no or unclear quality checklist and a verdict with one sentence: read in full, skim sections or skip.
Precautions and tips
- An abstract cannot support a full appraisal; the model should say what it cannot judge.
- Where it writes not stated, check the paper itself.
- The verdict is a guide; the decision stays with you.
