"source": "Of 3500 titles retrieved from the literature, 24 papers reporting on 23 studies could be included in the review. The studies were published between 1970 and 1997 and together included 1026 participants. Most were cross-over studies. Few studies provided sufficient information to judge the concealment of allocation. Four studies provided results for the percentage of symptom-free days. Pooling the results did not reveal a statistically significant difference between sodium cromoglycate and placebo. For the other pooled outcomes, most of the symptom-related outcomes and bronchodilator use showed statistically significant results, but treatment effects were small. Considering the confidence intervals of the outcome measures, a clinically relevant effect of sodium cromoglycate cannot be excluded. The funnel plot showed an under-representation of small studies with negative results, suggesting publication bias. There is insufficient evidence to be sure about the efficacy of sodium cromoglycate over placebo. Publication bias is likely to have overestimated the beneficial effects of sodium cromoglycate as maintenance therapy in childhood asthma.",
|
113 |

"target": "In this review we aimed to determine whether there is evidence for the effectiveness of inhaled sodium cromoglycate as maintenance treatment in children with chronic asthma. Most of the studies were carried out in small groups of patients. Furthermore, we suspect that not all studies undertaken have been published. The results show that there is insufficient evidence to be sure about the beneficial effect of sodium cromoglycate compared to placebo. However, for several outcome measures the results favoured sodium cromoglycate."

|
125 |
+
### Rationale
|
126 |
+
|
127 |
+
#### What does this dataset contribute toward better generation evaluation and why is it part of GEM?
|
128 |
+
|
129 |
+
This dataset is the first paragraph-level simplification dataset published (as prior work had primarily focused on simplifying individual sentences). Furthermore, this dataset is in the medical domain, which is an especially useful domain for text simplification.
|
130 |
+
|
131 |
+
#### Do other datasets for the high level task exist?
|
132 |
+
|
133 |
+
no
|
134 |
+
|
135 |
+
#### Does this dataset cover other languages than other datasets for the same task?
|
136 |
+
|
137 |
+
no
|
138 |
+
|
139 |
+
#### What aspect of model ability can be measured with this dataset?
|
140 |
+
|
141 |
+
This dataset measures the ability for a model to simplify paragraphs of medical text through the omission non-salient information and simplification of medical jargon.
|
142 |
+
|
143 |
+
### GEM Additional Curation
|
144 |
+
|
145 |
+
#### Has the GEM version of the dataset been modified in any way (data, processing, splits) from the original curated data?
|
146 |
+
|
147 |
+
no
|
148 |
+
|
149 |
+
#### Does GEM provide additional splits to the dataset?
|
150 |
+
|
151 |
+
no
|
152 |
+
|
153 |

|
206 |
+
|
207 |
+
none
|
208 |
+
|
209 |
+

|
216 |
+
|
217 |
+
no
|
218 |
+
|
219 |
+

|
220 |
+
|
221 |
+
#### Does the source language data likely contain Personal Identifying Information about the data creators or subjects?
|
222 |
+
|
223 |
+
yes/very likely
|
224 |
+
|
225 |
+

|
232 |
+
|
233 |
+
no
|
234 |
+
|
235 |
+
## Broader Social Context
|
236 |
+
|
237 |
+
### Previous Work on the Social Impact of the Dataset
|
238 |
+
|
239 |
+
#### Are you aware of cases where models trained on the task featured in this dataset ore related tasks have been used in automated systems?
|
240 |
+
|
241 |
+
no
|
242 |
+
|
243 |
+
### Impact on Under-Served Communities
|
244 |
+
|
245 |
+
#### Does this dataset address the needs of communities that are traditionally underserved in language technology, and particularly language generation technology? Communities may be underserved for exemple because their language, language variety, or social or geographical context is underepresented in NLP and NLG resources (datasets and models).
|
246 |
+
|
247 |
+
yes
|
248 |
+
|
249 |
+
#### Describe how this dataset addresses the needs of underserved communities.
|
250 |
+
|
251 |
+
This dataset can be used to simplify medical texts that may otherwise be inaccessible to those without medical training.
|
252 |
+
|
253 |
+
### Discussion of Biases
|
254 |
+
|
255 |
+
#### Are there documented social biases in the dataset? Biases in this context are variations in the ways members of different social categories are represented that can have harmful downstream consequences for members of the more disadvantaged group.
|
256 |
+
|
257 |
+
unsure
|
258 |
+
|
259 |
+
#### Does the distribution of language producers in the dataset accurately represent the full distribution of speakers of the language world-wide? If not, how does it differ?
|
260 |
+
|
261 |
+
The dataset was generated from abstracts and plain-language summaries of medical literature reviews that were written by medical professionals and thus does was not generated by people representative of the entire English-speaking population.
|
262 |
+
|
263 |
+
## Considerations for Using the Data
|
264 |
+
|
265 |
+
### PII Risks and Liability
|
266 |
+
|
267 |
+
### Licenses
|
268 |
+
|
269 |
+
### Known Technical Limitations
|
270 |
+
|
271 |
+
#### Describe any known technical limitations, such as spurrious correlations, train/test overlap, annotation biases, or mis-annotations, and cite the works that first identified these limitations when possible.
|
272 |
+
|
273 |
+
The main limitation of this dataset is that the information alignment between the abstract and plain-language summary is often rough, so the plain-language summary may contain information that isn't found in the abstract. Furthermore, the plain-language targets often contain formulaic statements like "this evidence is current to [month][year]" not found in the abstracts. Another limitation is that some plain-language summaries do not simplify the technical abstracts very much and still contain medical jargon.
|
274 |
+
|
275 |
+
#### When using a model trained on this dataset in a setting where users or the public may interact with its predictions, what are some pitfalls to look out for? In particular, describe some applications of the general task featured in this dataset that its curation or properties make it less suitable for.
|
276 |
+
|
277 |
+
The main pitfall to look out for is errors in factuality. Simplification work so far has not placed a strong emphasis on the logical fidelity of model generations with the input text, and the paper introducing this dataset does not explore modeling techniques to combat this. These kinds of errors are especially pernicious in the medical domain, and the models introduced in the paper do occasionally alter entities like disease and medication names.
