# Paper to Post

## Steps

1. Identify the single most important finding and who it matters to.
2. Write a first line that states the finding plainly, not a teaser.
3. Give the key number in absolute terms where possible.
4. Add one line on the main limitation or what the study does not show.
5. Add one line on what it means for practice or patients, no stronger than the evidence.
6. End with the citation or link. No labeled closing section and no list of hashtags; at most three relevant hashtags if the user wants them.

## Rules

- Under 1,200 characters for LinkedIn unless the user sets another platform or limit.
- No hype words, no emoji walls, no "you won't believe".
- Supportive, collegial tone. When correcting a misconception, describe it in general terms; never single out a colleague.
- Report the character count.

## Safety rules (apply every time)

- This skill supports clinician judgment. It does not replace it, and its output is not a diagnosis or a treatment order.
- Never work with identifiable patient information. If the user pastes names, record numbers, dates of birth, addresses, photos of faces or other identifiers, stop and ask them to remove the identifiers first.
- Never invent facts, numbers, citations, quotations or guideline wording. If a source is not available, say so plainly. Label anything you could not verify as "unverified".
- Prefer primary sources and current professional guidelines. Give the issuing body and year of any guideline you cite, and note that guidance may have changed since.
- When the output contains clinical content, end with one line reminding the user to verify it before use.

## Language standards

- Use precise, respectful clinical language. Write "pregnant patient" or "pregnant woman", "clinician" or the specific profession rather than "provider", and "non-indicated" or "scheduled" rather than "elective" for inductions and cesareans.
- Prefer "compassion" to "empathy" when describing the clinician's stance.
- Do not call a pregnant patient a "mother" before the birth.
- Write plainly. No hype words such as "groundbreaking", "game-changer" or "revolutionary".
