Evidence-based medicine asks: how much should we trust this evidence? GRADE Working Group gave us a framework. But what about the answer built from that evidence? blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/04/09/fro… #EBM #GRADE

GRADE asks: “How confident are we that the evidence is true?” AskTrip adds: “How good is the answer using that evidence?” That distinction is becoming essential. blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/04/09/fro… #EBM #GRADE

In a small 10-question sample, lexical v2 and vector search together found 6 unique references that AskTrip's current search didn't retrieve — matching the number found only by the current search. Coverage matters in clinical evidence. 📊 blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/04/04/how…

Keyword search is powerful but misses papers that use different terminology. Vector search looks at meaning, not just words — so it can surface relevant evidence even when the language doesn't match. We're now combining both approaches in AskTrip. blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/04/04/how…

AskTrip is entering Phase Two testing of a major upgrade — and one of the biggest changes is the search underneath the answer. We’re moving from one search to three to find more relevant evidence. blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/04/04/how…

Interesting pattern: Early growth = steady Recent growth = faster 343 → 455 questions/week That shift matters more than the total. blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/04/02/loo…

Look what the Easter Bunny brought 🐣 Our 15,000th AskTrip question. But the real story? We’ve gone from 343 → 455 questions/week. ~30% growth. Not just growing — accelerating. blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/04/02/loo…

Two answers. One question. Not a UI tweak — a different way of handling clinical uncertainty. Still in testing, but feels important 👇 blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/03/31/two…

What if the problem with AI answers isn’t accuracy… …but how they handle uncertainty? We’re testing a two-layer approach in AskTrip: decision-ready evidence-transparent Early thoughts 👇 blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/03/31/two…

Two answers, one question: why we’re testing “standard” and “detailed” responses in AskTrip blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/03/31/two…

The popularity of certain clinical questions tells us something important: Uncertainty is shared. If large numbers are reading the same question, it’s not a knowledge gap. It’s a system signal. Read 👇 blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/03/19/wha…

Hypertension: measure properly. Lower targets: benefit + harm. Self-monitoring in pregnancy: sensible but no impact. Primary care is all about the trade-offs. Full review 👇 tripdatabase.com/view/evidence/…

If you want to understand modern clinical practice, don’t just read guidelines. Watch what clinicians actually search for. That’s where uncertainty lives. New blog 👇 blog.tripdatabase.com/2026/03/19/wha…
