Abstract: A system generates medical knowledge base information by using predetermined data source specific message syntax information in identifying first and second information received from first and second data sources respectively. The first and second information indicates at least one type of medical relationship between the received first and second medical terms. The system determines likelihood of existence of the at least one type of medical relationship indicated by a combination of the first and second information, in response to predetermined information indicating a number of occurrences of the at least one type of relationship in data of at least one of the first and second data source. The system outputs first and second medical terms and the at least one type of medical relationship in response to the determined likelihood of existence.

Abstract: A system generates medical knowledge base information by searching at least one repository of medical information to identify sentences including a received medical term. A data processor searches the identified sentences to identify sentences including a medical term different to the received term in response to a predetermined repository of medical terms and excludes sentences without a term different to the received term, to provide remaining multiple term sentences. The data processor groups different terms of individual sentences of the multiple term sentences to provide grouped terms, determines whether a medically valid relationship occurs between different terms of an individual group of terms of the grouped terms by using predetermined sentence structure and syntax rules and outputs data representing grouped terms having a medically valid relationship.
