  1. Summary scores (not shown) were generated using weightings of QAREL checklist items, where weights of individual items were based on the inverse of their prevalence within this cohort of articles. Subsequently, articles were ranked according to their normalized (Percentile) score and their relative position (Rank) within this cohort of articles.
