### Dataset Summary
A parallel corpus with 5000 sentence pairs of professional and laymen variants as a benchmark for medical text simplification. This dataset was collected in the CLARA-MeD project, with the goal of simplifying medical texts in the Spanish language and reducing the language barrier to patient's informed decision making.
The corpus gathers 2 subsets:
- 3800 parallel sentences (149 862 tokens) semi-automatically aligned and revised by linguists.
- 1200 parallel sentences (144 019 tokens) manually simplified by linguists.
### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
Medical text simplification
### Languages
Spanish
## Dataset Structure
### Data Instances
For each instance, there is a string for the source text (professional version), and a string for the target text (simplified version).
```
{'SOURCE': 'Varones mayores de 18 años, diagnosticados de alopecia androgénica grados I-IV de Sinclair, que no estén realizando ningún tratamiento capilar en la actualidad ni lo hayan realizado en los últimos 3 meses.'
'TARGET': 'Hombres mayores de 18 años, diagnosticados de alopecia androgénica (calvicie) grados I-IV de Sinclair. Estos hombres no estarán realizando ningún tratamiento para el cabello en la actualidad ni lo habrán realizado en los últimos 3 meses.'}
```
### Data Fields
- `SOURCE`: a string containing the professional version.
- `TARGET`: a string containing the simplified version.
## Dataset Creation
### Source Data
#### Who are the source language producers?
1. Drug leaflets and summaries of product characteristics from [CIMA](https://cima.aemps.es)
2. Cancer-related information summaries from the [National Cancer Institute](https://www.cancer.gov/)
3. Clinical trials announcements from [EudraCT](https://www.clinicaltrialsregister.eu/)
### Annotations
#### Annotation process
- 3800 sentences: Semi-automatic alignment of technical and patient versions of medical sentences. Inter-annotator agreement measured with Cohen's Kappa (average Kappa = 0.839 +- 0.076; very high agreement).
- 1200 sentences: Manual simplification technical medical sentences, both at the syntactic and lexical level. Three independent evaluators assessed the quality of the simplification by means of a 5-point Likert scale questionnaires. Human evaluators scored the simplified sentences according to grammar/fluency (average 4.8%), semantic adequacy/meaning coherence (average 4.9%) and overall simplification (average 4.3%).
