Area Of Science
- Biomedical Informatics
- Natural Language Processing
Background
- Medical text generation requires specialized tools for researchers and clinicians.
- Existing natural language processing (NLP) solutions often demand significant programming expertise.
- There is a need for integrated, user-friendly platforms for advanced medical NLP tasks.
Purpose Of The Study
- Introduce Ascle, a novel NLP toolkit for medical text generation.
- Provide an all-in-one solution with advanced generative functions and essential NLP capabilities.
- Evaluate the performance of fine-tuned language models on medical text tasks.
Main Methods
- Fine-tuned 32 domain-specific language models.
- Evaluated models on 24 established benchmarks for text generation tasks.
- Conducted manual reviews with clinicians for question-answering evaluation, assessing Readability, Relevancy, Accuracy, and Completeness.
Main Results
- Fine-tuned models demonstrated consistent improvements in text generation.
- Achieved a 20.27 increase in BLEU score for machine translation.
- Manual reviews for answer generation yielded high average scores: 4.95 (Readability), 4.43 (Relevancy), 3.9 (Accuracy), and 3.31 (Completeness).
Conclusions
- Ascle is a user-friendly NLP toolkit for medical text generation.
- The toolkit supports advanced functions like question-answering, summarization, simplification, and translation.

The adrenal or supra-renal glands, situated above the kidneys and aligned with the twelfth rib, are paired pyramid-shaped structures crucial for the body's stress response. During stress, these glands secrete hormones vital for adaptive physiological reactions.
These glands possess a distinctive yellow tinge due to the stored cholesterol and fatty acids required for hormone synthesis. They are encased in a fibrous capsule and cushioned by fat.
The adrenal gland comprises two distinct...
Overview
An organism is diploid if it inherits two variants, or alleles, of each gene, one from each parent. These two alleles constitute the genotype for a given gene. The term genotype is also used to refer to an organism’s complete set of genes. A diploid organism with two identical alleles has a homozygous genotype, whereas two different alleles indicates a heterozygous genotype. Observable traits arising from genotypes are called phenotypes, which can also be influenced by...
The genome refers to all of the genetic material in an organism. It can range from a few million base pairs in microbial cells to several billion base pairs in many eukaryotic organisms. Genome assembly refers to the process of taking the DNA sequencing data and putting it all back together in a correct order to create a close representation of the original genome. This is followed by the identification of functional elements on the newly assembled genome, a process called genome annotation.
Knowledge of anatomy is essential to understand human biology and medicine. Anatomists and health care professionals use standard terminology to describe the human body with more precision and no ambiguity. Anatomical terms have mostly Greek and Latin-derived roots. Because these languages are rarely used in conversation, the meaning of words remains the same. Each term is made up of a root in between the prefixes and suffixes. The root of a term often refers to an organ, tissue, or condition,...

The condition of being free from disease-causing living pathogens is asepsis. Aseptic techniques include a set of standard practices to achieve asepsis. An example is the regular environmental cleaning of all parts of the healthcare facility and hand hygiene at home before preparing or eating food. Medical and surgical asepsis in healthcare practice protects patients from harmful pathogens, minimizes the risk of contamination of susceptible sites, and reduces the risk of infection transmission.
