An open dataset of Chinese duration expressions.
Article in Scientific data, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Duration information is essential for understanding and analyzing our world. In textual contexts, duration information is typically conveyed in two formats: numeric (e.g., 1 hour) and verbal (e.g., shortly). To analyze duration information in text, it is crucial to understand how people map duration expressions to corresponding numerical duration. However, the literature has yet to provide lexicons supporting such conversion. Furthermore, existing databases of time-related expressions often lack information about word frequency - a robust predictor of information processing. This article reports an open dataset of 2,101 Chinese duration expressions, each annotated with its corresponding numerical duration. To obtain high-quality data for word frequency, we obtained the frequency of each duration expression from a large-scale corpus of 10 billion Chinese characters (BLCU Corpus Center (BCC) Corpus) and computed an adjusted frequency for each expression. This dataset provides a valuable resource for research on temporal information in Chinese, facilitating studies in natural language processing, psychology, and linguistics.
