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

Developing clinical natural language systems based on machine learning and deep learning is dependent on the availability of large-scale annotated clinical text datasets, most of which are time-consuming to create and not publicly available. The lack of such annotated datasets is the biggest bottleneck for the development of clinical NLP systems. Zero-Shot Learning (ZSL) refers to the use of deep learning models to classify instances from new classes of which no training data have been seen before. Prompt-based learning is an emerging ZSL technique in NLP where we define task-based templates for different tasks. In this study, we developed a novel prompt-based clinical NLP framework called HealthPrompt and applied the paradigm of prompt-based learning on clinical texts. In this technique, rather than fine-tuning a Pre-trained Language Model (PLM), the task definitions are tuned by defining a prompt template. We performed an in-depth analysis of HealthPrompt on six different PLMs in a no-training-data setting. Our experiments show that HealthPrompt could effectively capture the context of clinical texts and perform well for clinical NLP tasks without any training data.
