Conditional Probability Joint Extraction of Nested Biomedical Events: Design of a Unified Extraction Framework Based on Neural Networks.
Article in JMIR medical informatics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
backgroundEvent extraction is essential for natural language processing. In the biomedical field, the nested event phenomenon (event A as a participating role of event B) makes extracting this event more difficult than extracting a single event. Therefore, the performance of nested biomedical events is always underwhelming. In addition, previous works relied on a pipeline to build an event extraction model, which ignored the dependence between trigger recognition and event argument detection tasks and produced significant cascading errors.
objectiveThis study aims to design a unified framework to jointly train biomedical event triggers and arguments and improve the performance of extracting nested biomedical events.
methodsWe proposed an end-to-end joint extraction model that considers the probability distribution of triggers to alleviate cascading errors. Moreover, we integrated the syntactic structure into an attention-based gate graph convolutional network to capture potential interrelations between triggers and related entities, which improved the performance of extracting nested biomedical events.
resultsThe experimental results demonstrated that our proposed method achieved the best F1 score on the multilevel event extraction biomedical event extraction corpus and achieved a favorable performance on the biomedical natural language processing shared task 2011 Genia event corpus.
conclusionsOur conditional probability joint extraction model is good at extracting nested biomedical events because of the joint extraction mechanism and the syntax graph structure. Moreover, as our model did not rely on external knowledge and specific feature engineering, it had a particular generalization performance.
