2.	Purpose/ Objectives are clearly described
		Allocated Score = 10	1	2	3	4	5
	a.	Was the objective of the study sufficiently described?				√		0
	b.	Was the question clearly defined?		√				0		a little editing of the title and contents needed the study results compared OF and NOF patients and not mortality per se

	b.	Were appropriate summary data used? (for example, descriptive statistics [Mean, %], effect estimates [RR, OR, HR, etc..] for outcomes, appropriate comparisons)				√		0
	c.	Were confidence intervals or p-values given for the main results (when applicable)?						0
			Total					0

	a.	Is it organized / structured /interesting?				√		0
	b.	Is it clearly written?			√			0		a little editing to emphasize that it was not a study of mortality but of organ failure
	c.	Is the English adequate?					√	0
