Review the resources found in Weekly Guide/Week 2 and the Rating System for the Hierarchy of Evidence for Intervention/Treatment Questions in Chapter 1 of Melnyk and Fineout-Overholt (2015) textbook (p. 11. Box 1.3). Review the hierarchy Levels I-VII.

- Identify and summarize the Level of evidence found in each article. Use Levels I-VII from the text. Provide rationale
