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

backgroundThe roles of antibody and antigen are indispensable in targeted diagnosis, therapy, and biomedical discovery. On top of that, massive numbers of new scientific articles about antibodies and/or antigens are published each year, which is a precious knowledge resource but has yet been exploited to its full potential. We, therefore, aim to develop a biomedical natural language processing tool that can automatically identify antibody and antigen entities from articles.

resultsWe first annotated an antibody-antigen corpus including 3210 relevant PubMed abstracts using a semi-automatic approach. The Inter-Annotator Agreement score of 3 annotators ranges from 91.46 to 94.31%, indicating that the annotations are consistent and the corpus is reliable. We then used the corpus to develop and optimize BiLSTM-CRF-based and BioBERT-based models. The models achieved overall F1 scores of 62.49% and 81.44%, respectively, which showed potential for newly studied entities. The two models served as foundation for development of a named entity recognition (NER) tool that automatically recognizes antibody and antigen names from biomedical literature.

conclusionsOur antibody-antigen NER models enable users to automatically extract antibody and antigen names from scientific articles without manually scanning through vast amounts of data and information in the literature. The output of NER can be used to automatically populate antibody-antigen databases, support antibody validation, and facilitate researchers with the most appropriate antibodies of interest. The packaged NER model is available at https://github.com/TrangDinh44/ABAG_BioBERT.git .
