Thanks Patrick, would you consider updating this in an FAQ on the wiki page I 
referenced below?


If you register for an account there and tell me the name I can grant you 
permissions to edit the

thanks!

Steph, the cTakes GUI is the default CVD I mentioned above & it does find the 
relevant medications. What are RRF files?

 

Chris, ***good shout***. Made me realise what the issue was: the analysis 
engine... 

 

I altered CTakesConfig.properties file to point at 
AggregatePlaintextFastUMLSProcessor.xml rather than 
AggregatePlaintextUMLSProcessor.xml  by editing this line

 

aeDescriptorPath=/ctakes-clinical-pipeline/desc/analysis_engine/AggregatePlaintextFastUMLSProcessor.xml

 

For the benefit of future travellers, I also had to reboot my computer 
afterwards... the database gets locked otherwise & it won't work.

 

Thank you all for responding to me so promptly. I'm most happy.

Hmm, perhaps Patrick take a look at the CTAKESContentHandler code here [1] and
the wiki here:

 

https://wiki.apache.org/tika/cTAKESParser

 

We may be pinned to an older version of cTAKES and/or we may not be flowing it
out properly (we take CTAKES output and then format it for TIka).

 

Cheers,

Chris

Chris,

  I know nothing about ctakes...any ideas?

I am using tika-app-1.19.jar & ctakes4.0.0 to populate neo4j with ctakes event 
mentions extracted from biomedical articles. However, I've noticed some  
medication mentions e.g., indinavir, zidovudine are missed while other 
antiretrovirals such as lamivudine are detected.

 

The default CVD spots these meds properly though... any ideas why this might be 
happening?

 

Many thanks,

Paddy Young
