Typed Markers and Context for Clinical Temporal Relation Extraction.
Article in Proceedings of machine learning research, 2023. 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
Reliable extraction of temporal relations from clinical notes is a growing need in many clinical research domains. Our work introduces typed markers to the task of clinical temporal relation extraction. We demonstrate that the addition of medical entity information to clinical text as tags with context sentences then input to a transformer-based architecture can outperform more complex systems requiring feature engineering and temporal reasoning. We propose several strategies of typed marker creation that incorporate entity type information at different granularities, with extensive experiments to test their effectiveness. Our system establishes the best result on I2B2, a clinical benchmark dataset for temporal relation extraction, with a F1 at 83.5% that provides a substantial 3.3% improvement over the previous best system.
