When to use it

  2. 02

    Which branches are collectively complete without overlapping?

    Write your interpretation and attach the source or name the evidence gap.

  3. 03

    Which branch could change the recommendation and should be tested first?

    Write your interpretation and attach the source or name the evidence gap.
