1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Concept encoding, which maps text spans to concepts in standard terminologies, is a critical component in clinical natural language processing (NLP) systems to allow semantic interoperability with other clinical applications. A majority of clinical NLP systems adopt dictionary or lexicon based approaches and the performance of concept encoding is often evaluated using a human created gold standard generated with reference to the most up-to-date standard terminologies available at the time of gold standard creation. With the advance of medical science, standard terminologies or dictionaries can evolve. However, it remains unknown whether the dictionary updates will impact the performance of concept encoding. In this study, we evaluated the annotation performance of two clinical NLP systems, cTAKES and MedXN based on updated dictionaries to gain further insights. Specifically, we compared the automatic annotation results with previously manually generated gold standards. The results of our study demonstrate the annotation changes based on dictionary updates in clinical NLP systems and that it is necessary to do temporal management for gold standards, which raises the need for appropriate terminology management tools for back version compatibility to update gold standards.
