Research Article Summary

The audience variable calibrates the summary — a clinician needs p-values and confidence intervals, a patient needs 'what this means for me'. The limitations section prevents overconfidence in single studies.

Prompt
Summarize this research article for a {{audience}} audience:

**Article title:** {{title}}
**Abstract/text:**
"""
{{paste_abstract_or_text}}
"""

Provide:
1. **Key finding** — one sentence, no jargon
2. **Study design** — type, sample size, duration
3. **Main results** — the numbers that matter
4. **Limitations** — what the study can't tell us
5. **Clinical relevance** — what this means for practice (if applicable)
6. **Quality assessment** — notable strengths or weaknesses in methodology

Adjust language complexity for the audience. For clinicians, include statistical details. For patients, translate to practical implications.
