Wizey Editorial Policy
Every article, analysis, and health insight we publish is grounded in evidence-based medicine, written in plain language, and reviewed by qualified medical professionals. Your health deserves nothing less than the highest standards of accuracy.
Our Core Editorial Principles
The Wizey editorial team follows four non-negotiable standards to ensure you receive trustworthy, actionable health information:
Evidence-Based Medical Accuracy
All clinical statements are based on peer-reviewed research from reputable journals, recognized medical guidelines (WHO, CDC, NIH), and verified primary sources. We cite our sources and update content regularly as medical knowledge evolves.
Clear & Transparent Communication
We translate complex medical terminology into plain English without sacrificing scientific accuracy. Every article clearly lists its author, medical reviewer credentials, publication date, last review date, and all sources used—so you know exactly who stands behind the information.
Editorial Independence
Our medical recommendations are never influenced by commercial partnerships, sponsors, or advertisers. Clinical accuracy and patient safety always come first, with zero commercial bias in our health guidance.
Our Rigorous Medical Review Process
Each clinical guide and health article goes through a comprehensive four-step workflow before publication:
- Step 1: Expert Drafting A domain specialist or experienced health writer prepares the initial draft using the latest peer-reviewed research, clinical guidelines, and our internal medical knowledge graph. All claims are sourced from reputable medical databases.
- Step 2: Independent Fact Check A separate editor validates all statistics, medical terminology, risk statements, and clinical recommendations against original sources. Any discrepancies are flagged and corrected.
- Step 3: Medical Professional Review A licensed physician or subject-matter expert (credentials displayed on each article) verifies all clinical conclusions, confirms risk thresholds, and recommends clarifications. The reviewer's name, role, credentials, and review date appear on published articles.
- Step 4: Final Quality Assurance Our content team ensures accessibility compliance (WCAG 2.1), inclusive language, mobile responsiveness, and design consistency across all platforms before publication.
Note: Routine non-clinical content (e.g., product announcements, company news) follows the same editorial standards minus the medical sign-off. However, anything touching clinical interpretation, health decision support, or medical recommendations must carry a medical reviewer stamp before publication.
Medical Source Standards & Citations
We rely exclusively on authoritative, up-to-date medical sources to ensure information accuracy:
Official Health Organizations
World Health Organization (WHO), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Institutes of Health (NIH), European Medicines Agency (EMA), and national health ministries.
Peer-Reviewed Medical Journals
Publications indexed in MEDLINE, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and leading medical journals (NEJM, The Lancet, JAMA, BMJ). We prioritize systematic reviews and meta-analyses from high-impact factor journals.
Clinical Guidelines & Lab Standards
Evidence-based recommendations from specialty societies (American College of Cardiology, Endocrine Society, ADA). CLSI laboratory standards, diagnostic assay documentation, and internationally recognized reference ranges.
What We Avoid: We never cite unpublished anecdotal claims, outdated studies (typically older than 10 years unless historically significant), marketing collateral, or non-peer-reviewed sources. When evidence is limited or emerging, we explicitly state this in the article.
Content Updates & Corrections Policy
Staying current with medical science is crucial. Here's how we maintain content accuracy:
Annual Review Cycle
Every medically oriented article is reviewed at least once per year to ensure it reflects current medical guidelines, updated reference ranges, and the latest research findings.
Immediate Updates
We update content immediately when regulatory agencies release new safety information, guidelines change, or new research significantly impacts existing recommendations.
Community Feedback
When users, clinicians, or partners flag potential inaccuracies, we investigate within 48 hours and update content if needed, documenting all changes in our internal log.
Correction Transparency
All corrections are documented in an internal log that records the date, reason for change, and the reviewer who approved it. When an update materially changes clinical advice or risk assessment, we append a visible note to the article indicating the update date and nature of the change. Minor corrections (typos, formatting) are made without notification.
