Abstract
This article is the third translation of a GRADE series published in the BMJ for developing and presenting recommendations for managing patients. The strength of a recommendation reflects the extent to which we can be confident that desirable effects of an intervention outweigh any undesirable effects. GRADE classifies the strength of recommendations as strong or weak. The strength of recommendation is determined by the balance between desirable and undesirable consequences of alternative management strategies, quality of the evidence, variability in values and preferences, and the appropriate usage of resources.
