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

Intelligent traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has become a popular research field by means of prospering of deep learning technology. Important achievements have been made in such representative tasks as automatic diagnosis of TCM syndromes and diseases and generation of TCM herbal prescriptions. However, one unavoidable issue that still hinders its progress is the lack of labeled samples, i.e., the TCM medical records. As an efficient tool, the named entity recognition (NER) models trained on various TCM resources can effectively alleviate this problem and continuously increase the labeled TCM samples. In this work, on the basis of in-depth analysis, we argue that the performance of the TCM named entity recognition model can be better by using the character-level representation and tagging and propose a novel word-character integrated self-attention module. With the help of TCM doctors and experts, we define 5 classes of TCM named entities and construct a comprehensive NER dataset containing the standard content of the publications and the clinical medical records. The experimental results on this dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed module.
