Research Gap · Health & Energy · Ready for resolution review
Which work-break and recovery practices improve functioning without relying on pseudoscientific energy-cycle claims?
Prefer occupational or behavioral systematic reviews with objective or validated outcomes.
Still open. A reviewed Evidence Decision and trusted Topic protocol exist, but no explicit closure record exists yet.
Evidence boundary
Avoid universal ultradian schedules, physiological optimization claims, or fixed recovery doses.

Closure rule
Brali does not close this gap because a paper exists or because a protocol sounds plausible. Closure requires an explicit resolution whose reviewed Evidence Decisions map to this Topic and whose referenced protocols are present in the trusted protocol feed for the same Topic.
