Methodology

This page summarizes how report information is structured, aggregated, and displayed.

Last updated: February 16, 2026

Structured Data Model

Report fields include peptide category, peptide name, route, dose context, intended effects, positive effects, side effects, and optional demographics.

Aggregation Logic

  • Per-peptide totals are calculated from submitted reports
  • Categorical distributions are grouped and count-ranked
  • Array fields are expanded and counted per selected label

Demographic Thresholding

Demographic breakdowns are hidden until minimum sample thresholds are reached for a peptide. This reduces over-interpretation of sparse data.

Reference Layer

Controlled peptide overview content is maintained separately from community report data and is intended to provide baseline context.

Limitations

  • Self-reported data can include selection bias and recall bias
  • Differences in dose/stack/context can confound outcomes
  • Aggregation is descriptive and not causal inference
