Consensus recommendations for systematic evaluation of drug-drug interaction evidence for clinical decision support.
An expert workgroup developed recommendations by consensus for systematic evaluation of evidence for DDIs from the scientific literature, drug product labeling, and regulatory documents. It concluded that evidence-based clinical decision support for drug–drug interactions (DDIs) requires consistent application of transparent and systematic methods to evaluate the evidence.

Automatic identification of comparative effectiveness research from Medline citations to support clinicians' treatment information needs.
The goal of this study was to design and assess an algorithm for automatically identifying comparative effectiveness studies on the treatment of a given condition and extracting the interventions investigated in these studies. A total of 86% of the interventions extracted perfectly or partially matched the gold standard. The researchers concluded that, overall, the algorithm achieved reasonable performance.
