We had a similar idea to your IF ranking...

We had a look at trials reporting wound infection as a secondary out outcome and essentially its as accurate as guessing... unless it was the primary outcome of the trial.

So we need to either do better measurements of secondary outcomes or stop the effort of reporting them.
