Description:	Rating evidence and knowledge translation: Could grading tools be selling us short? Knowledge Translation is defined by the World Health Organization as “the synthesis, exchange, and application of knowledge by relevant stakeholders to accelerate the benefits of global and local innovation in strengthening health systems and improving people’s health” (WHO, 2005). This objective is compromised when a body of research is oversimplified, graded incorrectly, or not fully understood by those relying on flawed grading systems to inform their decision making.
