Creating efficiencies in the extraction of data from randomized trials: a prospective evaluation of a machine learning and text mining tool

Abstract Background Machine learning tools that semi-automate data extraction may create efficiencies in systematic review production. We evaluated a machine learning and text mining tool’s ability to (a) automatically extract data elements from randomized trials, and (b) save time compared with man...
