Does it rate certainty automatically?

No; downgrading decisions are yours; the table makes them explicit and leaves a sign-off marker.

What columns do I need?

Outcome, measure, k, n, effect, ci_lo, ci_hi, i2, rob, optional baseline_risk.

What format is the output?

Cochrane-template SoF in .xlsx, .docx and .md.

SoF table Data

The Summary of Findings table, computed — the certainty, yours to sign

The absolute effect per 1,000 with its CI is tedious arithmetic that is easy to get wrong — and the table has a format Cochrane expects.

You give

A results spreadsheet with one row per outcome (.xlsx or .csv) and, optionally, the intervention and comparator names.

You get

The SoF table in .xlsx, .docx and .md, formatted like the Cochrane template.

How it works

# SoF table
$ scopetools run sof-table
Deterministic — no model.
From each outcome's effect, CI, k, n, I² and baseline risk it computes the absolute effect per 1,000 and its CI, and leaves the certainty column marked for you to sign after the five GRADE domains.

Deterministic; from effect/CI/k/n/I²/baseline risk it computes the absolute effect per 1,000 and its CI — and it does not rate certainty for you: every cell stays marked [DATA: confirm and sign] until the five GRADE domains are signed by a human. It comes out as .xlsx, .docx and .md.

What it costs

5 credits per table (US$0.25), up to 30 outcomes.

Charged only when it delivers — a failed run costs nothing.

Credits are shared across every MetaScope tool — buy once, spend anywhere.

Limits

It does not rate certainty for you: the downgrading decisions are yours and the reviewers' — the table just makes them explicit.
