While several disease-symptom extraction methods have been proposed that retrieve a ranked list of symptoms for a disease [7, 10, 13, 14] , no collection is available to systematically evaluate the performance of such methods [11] . In the second method [14] , the relation between a disease and symptom is calculated based on their co-occurrence in the MeSHkeywords 1 of medical articles. We describe limitations of the keyword-based method [14] and propose an adaption in which we calculate the relations not only on keywords of medical articles, but also on the full text and the title. We evaluate the baselines on the dsr-collection to compare their effectiveness in the extraction of graded disease-symptom relations. ./cache/cord-020846-mfh1ope6.txt ./txt/cord-020846-mfh1ope6.txt
