note = "Funding Information: The NOF may accept external funding (i.e., industry, other not-for-profits, etc.) to support the development or update of an evidence report by an internal or external body (e.g., a university, consulting group, or etc.) who is blinded from the original funder until the final evidence report has been submitted to NOF (funding source will be recognized in the evidence report prior to publication). Evidence reports may be funded through a restricted account within the organization (for evidence reports developed without outside funding) or the NOF general research fund. Funding Information: Development of NOF position statements, derived in part or whole from an evidence report(s), must be solely supported through the NOF general research fund and free of outside funding.
