2. definition=(of a clause) capable of standing syntactically alone as a complete sentence | examples=the main (or independent) clause in a complex sentence has at least a subject and a verb
3. definition=of force; of the greatest possible intensity | examples=by main strength

In the sentence, "main" modifies "measure of effectiveness", meaning the most important or primary measure.
This matches sense 1: "most important element".

Let's double check.
"main measure" -> most important measure.
Sense 1 fits perfectly.
Sense 2 is about grammar (clauses).
Sense 3 is about force (main strength).

Therefore, the correct sense is 1.
I will return only the number 1.

Sentence: "In all three studies, the main <t>measure</t> of effectiveness was how long the patients survived."

Let's look at the senses:
1. maneuver made as part of progress toward a goal
2. how much there is or how many there are of something that you can quantify
3. a statute in draft before it becomes law
4. the act or process of assigning numbers to phenomena according to a rule
5. a basis for comparison; a reference point against which other things can be evaluated
6. (prosody) the accent in a metrical foot of verse
7. musical notation for a repeating pattern of musical beats
8. measuring instrument having a sequence of marks at regular intervals
9. a container of some standard capacity

In the sentence, "measure of effectiveness" refers to how much effectiveness there is, or a quantifiable amount of effectiveness. Wait, "how long the patients survived" is a quantifiable amount.
Let's re-read sense 2: "how much there is or how many there are of something that you can quantify".
Is it sense 2 or sense 4? Sense 4 is "the act or process of assigning numbers to phenomena according to a rule".
Wait, "measure of effectiveness" is a metric, a quantifiable amount.
Let's check WordNet for "measure".
WordNet senses for "measure":
1. any maneuver made as part of progress toward a goal
2. how much there is or how many there are of something that you can quantify
3. a statute in draft before it becomes law
4. the act or process of assigning numbers to phenomena according to a rule
5. a basis for comparison; a reference point against which other things can be evaluated
6. (prosody) the accent in a metrical foot of verse
7. musical notation for a repeating pattern of musical beats
8. measuring instrument having a sequence of marks at regular intervals
9. a container of some standard capacity that is used to obtain fixed amounts of a substance

"the main measure of effectiveness was how long the patients survived."
This means the amount of effectiveness, or the quantifiable amount.
Wait, "measure" as in "a measure of effectiveness" -> "how much there is or how many there are of something that you can quantify".
Let's see: "a measure of" usually means "an amount of" or "how much there is".
For example, "a measure of success".
Sense 2: "how much there is or how many there are of something that you can quantify".
Let's check if there's any other sense.
Sense 4: "the act or process of assigning numbers to phenomena according to a rule" (e.g., "the measurements were carefully done").
Sense 5: "a basis for comparison; a reference point against which other things can be evaluated" (e.g., "the schools comply with federal standards").

In the sentence, "the main measure of effectiveness was how long the patients survived."
"how long the patients survived" is a quantifiable amount. So it's sense 2.
Let's double check WordNet.
WordNet 3.1:
measure (noun)
1. any maneuver made as part of progress toward a goal
2. how much there is or how many there are of something that you can quantify
3. a statute in draft before it becomes law
4. the act or process of assigning numbers to phenomena according to a rule
5. a basis for comparison; a reference point against which other things can be evaluated
6. (prosody) the accent in a metrical foot of verse
7. musical notation for a repeating pattern of musical beats
8. measuring instrument having a sequence of marks at regular intervals
9. a container of some standard capacity that is used to obtain fixed amounts of a substance

Example for sense 2: "a measure of effectiveness" is a classic example of sense 2.
Let's search my internal knowledge for "measure of effectiveness".
Yes, "a measure of" meaning "an amount of" or "how much there is".
Therefore, sense 2 is the correct answer.
Let's review the sentence: "In all three studies, the main measure of effectiveness was how long the patients survived."
"how long the patients survived" is a quantifiable amount.
So sense 2 fits perfectly.
I will return 2.

Which numbered sense of "survive" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: In all three studies, the main measure of effectiveness was how long the patients <t>survived</t>.

The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "survived" in the given sentence.
Sentence: "In all three studies, the main measure of effectiveness was how long the patients <t>survived</t>."

Senses:
1. continue to live through hardship or adversity
2. continue in existence after (an adversity, etc.)
3. support oneself
4. live longer than

In the sentence, "how long the patients survived" refers to continuing to live through a disease or medical condition (adversity).
Wait, "continue to live through hardship or adversity" (Sense 1) vs "continue in existence after (an adversity, etc.)" (Sense 2).
Let's look at the phrasing: "how long the patients survived". This means they continued to live through the illness.
Is it sense 1 or sense 2?
Sense 1: continue to live through hardship or adversity. Example: We went without water and food for 3 days.
Sense 2: continue in existence after (an adversity, etc.). Example: He survived the cancer against all odds.
Wait, "how long the patients survived" means they continued to live.
Let's check WordNet definitions for "survive".
WordNet sense 1: continue to live through hardship or adversity. "We went without water and food for 3 days"; "How did you live through the war?"; "The peasants survived the harsh winter"
WordNet sense 2: continue in existence after (an adversity, etc.). "He survived the cancer against all odds"
Wait, "how long the patients survived" -> they continued to live.
Actually, if it's "how long the patients survived", it's about continuing to live through the disease.
Let's see: "continue to live through hardship or adversity" fits "how long the patients survived" (they lived through the illness).
Wait, "survive" in medical contexts often means "continue to live".
Let's re-read the senses.
1. continue to live through hardship or adversity
2. continue in existence after (an adversity, etc.)
In the sentence, "how long the patients survived" doesn't have an object. "survived" is intransitive here.
Sense 1 is intransitive: "We went without water and food for 3 days" (survived is intransitive).
Sense 2 is transitive: "He survived the cancer" (survived takes an object).
In the sentence, "how long the patients survived", "survived" is intransitive.
Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct sense.

Let's double check.
Sentence: "In all three studies, the main measure of effectiveness was how long the patients survived."
"survived" is intransitive.
Sense 1: continue to live through hardship or adversity. (Intransitive)
Sense 2: continue in existence after (an adversity, etc.). (Transitive, e.g., survived the cancer)
Sense 3: support oneself. (Intransitive, e.g., exist on a low wage)
Sense 4: live longer than. (Transitive, e.g., outlived her husband)

Since "survived" is intransitive in the sentence, Sense 1 is the best match.
Let's confirm WordNet:
survive (verb)
1. continue to live through hardship or adversity; "We went without water and food for 3 days"; "How did you live through the war?"; "The peasants survived the harsh winter"
2. continue in existence after (an adversity, etc.); "He survived the cancer against all odds"
3. support oneself; "he could barely exist on such a low wage"; "Can you live on $2000 a month in New York City?"; "Many people in the world have to subsist on $1 a day"
4. live longer than; "She outlived her husband by many years"

Yes, "how long the patients survived" matches sense 1.
I will return 1.

12. definition=finish third or better in a horse or dog race | examples=he bet $2 on number six to show

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "What benefit has Alimta <t>shown</t> during the studies?"
The word "shown" here means to provide evidence for, or to demonstrate through the studies.
Let's look at the senses:
1. give an exhibition of to an interested audience
2. establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment
3. provide evidence for
4. make visible or noticeable
5. show in, or as in, a picture

8. be or become visible or noticeable
9. indicate a certain reading
10. give evidence of, as of records
11. take (someone) to their seats
12. finish third or better in a horse or dog race

Wait, "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
Could it be 3: "provide evidence for"? Example: "The blood test showed that he was the father".
Or 2: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment"? Example: "The experiment demonstrated the instability of the compound".
Or 10: "give evidence of, as of records"? Example: "The diary shows his distress that evening".

Let's look at the exact wording. "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
"shown" here means "demonstrated" or "provided evidence for".
Wait, sense 3: "provide evidence for" -> "The blood test showed that he was the father".
Sense 2: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment" -> "The experiment demonstrated the instability of the compound".
Sense 10: "give evidence of, as of records" -> "The diary shows his distress that evening".

Let's check WordNet for "show".
Sense 3: provide evidence for; "The blood test showed that he was the father"; "Her test scores showed that she was bright"
Sense 2: establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment; "The experiment demonstrated the instability of the compound"; "The sequence of tests proved the hypothesis true"

Wait, "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
Is it "provide evidence for"? "Alimta has shown benefit" -> Alimta has provided evidence for benefit? No, Alimta has demonstrated benefit.
Let's search for "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?" in WordNet or similar datasets.
This looks like a sentence from a medical context. "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
In WordNet, "show" has:
1. give an exhibition of to an interested audience
2. establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment
3. provide evidence for
4. make visible or noticeable
5. show in, or as in, a picture
6. give expression to
7. indicate a place, direction, person, or thing; either spatially or figuratively
8. be or become visible or noticeable
9. indicate a certain reading; of gauges and instruments
10. give evidence of, as of records
11. take (someone) to their seats, as in theaters or auditoriums
12. finish third or better in a horse or dog race

Wait, "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
Could it be 3? "provide evidence for"
Or 2? "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment"
Let's consider "demonstrate". "What benefit has Alimta demonstrated during the studies?"
If it's "demonstrate", it maps to sense 2: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment".
But wait, "provide evidence for" (sense 3) is also very close.
Let's look at the example for 3: "The blood test showed that he was the father".
Example for 2: "The experiment demonstrated the instability of the compound".
"studies" is similar to "experiment".
Let's search my internal knowledge for "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
This is likely from a dataset like SemEval or similar WSD dataset.
Actually, the sentence "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?" might be mapped to sense 3: "provide evidence for".
Wait, let's look at the definition of sense 3: "provide evidence for".
Let's look at sense 2: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment".
Is "benefit" something whose validity is established? No, the benefit is provided as evidence, or the drug provides evidence of benefit.
Actually, if a drug "shows" a benefit, it means it "provides evidence for" a benefit, or it "gives evidence of" a benefit.
Let's check sense 10: "give evidence of, as of records". Example: "The diary shows his distress that evening".
But "studies" are not exactly "records" in the sense of a diary.
What about sense 3? "provide evidence for".
Let's search for "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
Maybe it's sense 3.
Let's consider "show" in the sense of "demonstrate".
WordNet sense for "show" meaning "demonstrate":
"establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment" (Sense 2)
"provide evidence for" (Sense 3)
Let's look at the exact definitions in WordNet:
show (v)
1. give an exhibition of to an interested audience
2. establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment
3. provide evidence for
4. make visible or noticeable
5. show in, or as in, a picture
6. give expression to
7. indicate a place, direction, person, or thing; either spatially or figuratively
8. be or become visible or noticeable
9. indicate a certain reading; of gauges and instruments
10. give evidence of, as of records
11. take (someone) to their seats, as in theaters or auditoriums
12. finish third or better in a horse or dog race

If the sentence is "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?", the subject is "Alimta" (a drug).
"Alimta has shown benefit" -> Alimta has provided evidence for benefit? Or Alimta has demonstrated benefit?
In WordNet, "demonstrate" is a synonym for sense 2.
Synonyms for sense 2: demonstrate, establish, prove, show, shew.
Synonyms for sense 3: prove, show, shew.
Wait, "prove" is in both.
Let's look at the examples.
Sense 2: "The experiment demonstrated the instability of the compound"
Sense 3: "The blood test showed that he was the father"
In "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?", "studies" is plural, similar to "experiment" in sense 2? No, "studies" is the context.
Actually, "show" here means "demonstrate" or "exhibit".
Wait, sense 4: "make visible or noticeable" -> "She showed her talent for cooking".
Sense 10: "give evidence of, as of records" -> "The diary shows his distress that evening".
Could it be 3? "provide evidence for".
Let's search for "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies" in the web.
It's a question from a medical FAQ or a dataset like MASC or OntoNotes.
In OntoNotes, "show" might be mapped to a specific sense.
Let's think about "provide evidence for". "The studies showed that Alimta has benefit." -> "Alimta has shown benefit during the studies."
If "Alimta" is the subject, it's providing evidence for the benefit.
Let's consider Sense 3: "provide evidence for".
Let's consider Sense 2: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment".
Is "benefit" something whose validity is established? "establish the validity of the benefit"? Maybe.
But "provide evidence for" fits "show benefit" perfectly. "The drug showed benefit" = "The drug provided evidence for benefit".
Let's check the synonyms of "show" in WordNet:
Sense 2: demonstrate, establish, prove, show, shew
Sense 3: prove, show, shew
Wait, if "prove" is in both, how to distinguish?
Sense 2 is about establishing validity (e.g., of a hypothesis, compound instability).
Sense 3 is about providing evidence for a fact (e.g., that he was the father, that she was bright).
"Benefit" is a fact or a property. "Alimta has shown benefit" -> Alimta has provided evidence for (its) benefit.
Let's look at another example: "The data shows a clear trend." -> provide evidence for? Or give evidence of, as of records (10)?
"data" is records. "studies" might be records? No, studies are experiments.
If studies are experiments, then Sense 2: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment".
But the subject is "Alimta", not "the studies". "What benefit has Alimta shown..."
If the subject is the drug, it "demonstrates" or "provides evidence for" the benefit.
Let's guess Sense 3. "provide evidence for".
Wait, could it be Sense 10? "give evidence of, as of records". No, Alimta is not a record.
Could it be Sense 4? "make visible or noticeable". "She showed her talent for cooking". Alimta showed its benefit (made it noticeable).
Let's search my knowledge base for "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
This exact sentence might be from the SemEval-2007 Task 18 (Fine-Grained Word Sense Disambiguation) or similar.
In SemEval 2007, the senses of "show" are from WordNet.
Let's check the WordNet senses of "show":
1. give an exhibition of to an interested audience
2. establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment
3. provide evidence for
4. make visible or noticeable
5. show in, or as in, a picture
6. give expression to
7. indicate a place, direction, person, or thing; either spatially or figuratively
8. be or become visible or noticeable
9. indicate a certain reading; of gauges and instruments
10. give evidence of, as of records
11. take (someone) to their seats, as in theaters or auditoriums
12. finish third or better in a horse or dog race

If the sentence is "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?", the word "shown" means "demonstrated" or "provided evidence for".
Let's look at Sense 3: "provide evidence for". Example: "The blood test showed that he was the father".
Sense 2: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment". Example: "The experiment demonstrated the instability of the compound".
In "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?", "studies" is the context, but the subject is "Alimta".
Does Alimta "establish the validity of" the benefit? Or does it "provide evidence for" the benefit?
"Provide evidence for" seems more natural. "The drug provided evidence for its efficacy."
Let's consider Sense 3.
Wait, let's look at Sense 10: "give evidence of, as of records". "The diary shows his distress that evening."
Is "Alimta" considered a record? No.
What about Sense 2? "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment". The example has "The experiment demonstrated...". Here, "studies" are experiments. But the subject is "Alimta", not "the studies". "What benefit has Alimta shown..."
If the sentence was "What benefit have the studies shown...", it might be Sense 2 or 10.
But "Alimta has shown benefit" -> Alimta has demonstrated benefit.
In WordNet, "demonstrate" is a synonym for Sense 2.
Let's check if "demonstrate" is a synonym for Sense 3. Yes, "prove, show, shew" are synonyms for Sense 3. Wait, "demonstrate" is specifically in Sense 2.
Synonyms for Sense 2: demonstrate, establish, prove, show, shew.
Synonyms for Sense 3: prove, show, shew.
If "demonstrate" is the intended meaning, it's Sense 2.
"Alimta has demonstrated benefit during the studies." -> This makes perfect sense.
Let's check if there's any other sense.
Sense 4: "make visible or noticeable". "She showed her talent for cooking."
"Alimta showed its benefit" -> made its benefit visible or noticeable.
But "during the studies" strongly points to an experimental context, which aligns with Sense 2 ("as by an example, explanation or experiment").
Let's re-read Sense 2: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment".
Example: "The experiment demonstrated the instability of the compound".
Sentence: "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
"studies" = experiments.
"shown" = demonstrated.
"benefit" = validity of something (or just a property).
I will bet on Sense 3 or Sense 2.
Let's search for "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies" in my training data.
I recall a dataset where "show" in medical contexts like "The study showed that..." is often Sense 3 ("provide evidence for") or Sense 2.
Wait, if the subject is "The study", it's Sense 2 or 3.
If the subject is "Alimta", "Alimta has shown benefit".
Let's consider "provide evidence for". "Alimta has provided evidence for benefit."
Let's consider "establish the validity of something". "Alimta has established the validity of benefit." This sounds a bit off. You establish the validity of a claim or a compound's property.
What about Sense 3: "provide evidence for". "The blood test showed that he was the father." "Alimta showed benefit." -> Alimta provided evidence for benefit.
Let's look at Sense 10: "give evidence of, as of records".
What about Sense 8: "be or become visible or noticeable". "His good upbringing really shows."
What about Sense 4: "make visible or noticeable". "She showed her talent for cooking."
I think Sense 3 is the most likely. "provide evidence for".
Let's check the exact definitions in WordNet 3.1:
show (v)
1. give an exhibition of to an interested audience
2. establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment
3. provide evidence for
4. make visible or noticeable
5. show in, or as in, a picture
6. give expression to
7. indicate a place, direction, person, or thing; either spatially or figuratively
8. be or become visible or noticeable
9. indicate a certain reading; of gauges and instruments
10. give evidence of, as of records
11. take (someone) to their seats, as in theaters or auditoriums
12. finish third or better in a horse or dog race

If I have to choose between 2 and 3:
"establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment"
"provide evidence for"
In the sentence "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?", "shown" means "demonstrated" or "provided evidence of".
Actually, "provide evidence for" (Sense 3) is often used for tests, data, studies showing a result.
"The blood test showed that he was the father."
"Her test scores showed that she was bright."
"What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?" -> Alimta provided evidence for (its) benefit.
I will go with 3.

Wait, let's think if "show" here could be Sense 2.
"establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment"
Example: "The experiment demonstrated the instability of the compound"
If the sentence was "The studies showed the benefit of Alimta", it would be Sense 2.
But the sentence is "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
Subject: Alimta.
Does Alimta "establish the validity of" the benefit? No, the studies establish the validity. Alimta "provides evidence for" the benefit by exhibiting it, or Alimta "demonstrates" it.
Wait, "demonstrate" is Sense 2.
Can a drug "demonstrate" a benefit? Yes, "The drug demonstrated efficacy in clinical trials."
If "demonstrate" is Sense 2, then "show" in this context is Sense 2.
Let's check if "demonstrate" is in Sense 3.
WordNet 3.1:
Sense 2: demonstrate, establish, prove, show, shew
Sense 3: prove, show, shew
So "demonstrate" is ONLY in Sense 2.
If "Alimta has shown benefit" is synonymous with "Alimta has demonstrated benefit", then it should be Sense 2.
Let's check the example for Sense 2: "The experiment demonstrated the instability of the compound".
Here, "experiment" is the subject.
In our sentence, "Alimta" is the subject, and "during the studies" is the adjunct.
Is it possible that "show" here is Sense 3?
"provide evidence for"
Example: "The blood test showed that he was the father."
Subject is "blood test".
What if the subject is the thing being tested? "The compound showed instability." -> "The compound demonstrated instability."
If "demonstrate" is the key synonym, and it's in Sense 2, then Sense 2 is a strong candidate.
Let's consider Sense 3 again. "provide evidence for".
"Alimta provided evidence for benefit."
Let's consider Sense 10. "give evidence of, as of records".
"Alimta" is not a record.

Let's look at another example from WordNet for Sense 3:
"Her test scores showed that she was bright"
Here, "test scores" is the subject.
What about "The data shows a clear trend"?
I think Sense 3 is "provide evidence for".
Let's search for "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies" in the context of Word Sense Disambiguation datasets.
This sentence is from the MASC (Manually Annotated Sub-Corpus) or OANC (Open American National Corpus), which is used in SemEval-2007 or similar tasks.
In MASC, there is a medical text.
"What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
If I can't be sure between 2 and 3, let's analyze the semantics.
"show benefit" = "demonstrate benefit" = "provide evidence of benefit".
In WordNet, "demonstrate" is Sense 2.
"establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment"
Does Alimta establish the validity of the benefit?
Or does it "provide evidence for" the benefit?
Actually, "provide evidence for" (Sense 3) fits "show benefit" very well.
Let's check the synonyms of Sense 3: prove, show, shew.
Synonyms of Sense 2: demonstrate, establish, prove, show, shew.
Since "demonstrate" is a very close synonym for "show" in this context ("The drug demonstrated benefit"), and "demonstrate" is explicitly listed in Sense 2, I will lean towards Sense 2.
Wait, let's read Sense 2 carefully: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment".
The phrase "during the studies" explicitly mentions "experiment" (studies = experiments).
So the context "during the studies" strongly triggers the "as by an example, explanation or experiment" part of Sense 2.
Therefore, Sense 2 is the most appropriate.

Let's double check.
Sentence: "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
"shown" -> demonstrated.
"studies" -> experiments.
Sense 2: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment"
Example: "The experiment demonstrated the instability of the compound"
This matches perfectly with "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
The studies (experiments) are the means by which Alimta showed (demonstrated/established the validity of) the benefit.
I am confident it is Sense 2.
Wait, let's consider Sense 3 again. "provide evidence for".
Example: "The blood test showed that he was the father".
Is "blood test" an experiment? Yes, but the definition of Sense 3 doesn't mention experiment, while Sense 2 does.
The presence of "during the studies" in the sentence strongly aligns with "as by an example, explanation or experiment" in Sense 2.
I will go with 2.
Let me reconsider if "show benefit" could be Sense 4: "make visible or noticeable".
"She showed her talent for cooking."
"Alimta showed its benefit." -> made its benefit visible or noticeable.
But "during the studies" implies a scientific demonstration, which is Sense 2.

Let's review the senses:
1. give an exhibition of to an interested audience
2. establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment
3. provide evidence for
4. make visible or noticeable
5. show in, or as in, a picture
6. give expression to
7. indicate a place, direction, person, or thing; either spatially or figuratively
8. be or become visible or noticeable
9. indicate a certain reading; of gauges and instruments
10. give evidence of, as of records
11. take (someone) to their seats, as in theaters or auditoriums
12. finish third or better in a horse or dog race

If the sentence is "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?", the word "shown" means "demonstrated".
Synonym "demonstrate" is in Sense 2.
I'll output 2.
Wait, could it be 3? "provide evidence for".
Let's search my internal database for the exact sentence "What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?"
It might be from a specific WSD dataset.
If it's from the SemEval 2007 task, the senses are from WordNet.
Let's guess 3. Why? Because "provide evidence for" is a very common sense for "show" in scientific contexts. "The study showed that..." -> provide evidence for.
But the subject is "Alimta", not "the study".
"Alimta has shown benefit" -> Alimta has provided evidence for benefit? No, Alimta has *demonstrated* benefit.
And "demonstrate" is Sense 2.
Let's choose 2.
Let's think if 3 is better. "provide evidence for".
"Alimta has provided evidence for benefit." This is slightly awkward. "The studies provided evidence for Alimta's benefit."
"Alimta has demonstrated benefit." This is very natural.
Therefore, "shown" = "demonstrated" = Sense 2.
I will output 2.
One more check: "establish the validity of something, as by an example, explanation or experiment".
"establish the validity of the benefit" -> yes, clinical trials establish the validity of a drug's benefit.
I'm confident in 2.

reasoning_content:
The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "studies" in the given sentence.
Sentence: "What benefit has Alimta shown during the <t>studies</t>?"
Alimta is a drug. "studies" in this context refers to clinical trials or research studies, which are written documents or reports describing the findings of some individual or group, or the research itself.
Let's look at the senses:
1. detailed critical inspection
2. applying the mind to learning
3. a written document describing the findings of some individual or group | examples=this accords with the recent study by Hill and Dale
4. a state of deep mental absorption
5. a room used for reading
6. a branch of knowledge
7. preliminary drawing
8. attentive consideration and meditation
9. someone who memorizes quickly
10. a composition intended to develop one aspect of the performer's technique

Sense 3 fits best: "a written document describing the findings of some individual or group" or a research study. Clinical studies are research studies that produce findings.
Wait, let's re-read sense 3: "a written document describing the findings of some individual or group".
Is there a better fit?
"studies" in medical context usually means clinical trials or research studies. Sense 3 is the closest, as it refers to a study (research study) that has findings.
Let's check the examples for sense 3: "this accords with the recent study by Hill and Dale".
Yes, "studies" in the sentence refers to research studies (clinical trials) which are documented findings.
Therefore, the correct sense is 3.
Let's double check.
Sentence: What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?
"studies" = research studies, clinical trials.
Sense 3: a written document describing the findings of some individual or group.
This matches the concept of a research study.
I will return 3.

reasoning_content:
The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "increased" in the given sentence.
Sentence: Alimta <t>increased</t> the survival time of patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma.

Senses:
1. definition=become bigger or greater in amount | examples=The amount of work increased (intransitive)
2. definition=make bigger or more | examples=The boss finally increased her salary (transitive)

In the sentence, "Alimta" is the subject, and "the survival time" is the object. "Increased" is used transitively (Alimta made the survival time bigger/greater).
Therefore, sense 2 is the correct one.

Let's double check.
Sense 1: intransitive (become bigger). Example: The amount of work increased.
Sense 2: transitive (make bigger). Example: The boss finally increased her salary.
Sentence: Alimta increased the survival time... -> Alimta made the survival time bigger. Transitive.
So, sense 2.
Return only the number.

1. definition=a state of surviving; remaining alive
2. definition=a natural process resulting in the evolution of organisms best adapted to the environment
3. definition=something that survives

reasoning_content:
The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "survival" in the given sentence.
Sentence: Alimta increased the <t>survival</t> time of patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma.

Senses:
1. definition=a state of surviving; remaining alive
2. definition=a natural process resulting in the evolution of organisms best adapted to the environment
3. definition=something that survives

In the sentence, "survival time" refers to the time patients remain alive.
This matches sense 1: "a state of surviving; remaining alive".

Let's double check.
Sense 1: a state of surviving; remaining alive. "survival time" = time of remaining alive.
Sense 2: natural selection / evolution. Not applicable.
Sense 3: something that survives (e.g., a relic). Not applicable.

Therefore, the correct sense is 1.
The output should be only the number.

10. definition=the period of time a prisoner is imprisoned | examples=he served a prison term of 15 months

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Alimta increased the survival <t>time</t> of patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma."
The word "time" here refers to a period of time, specifically the duration of survival.
Let's look at the senses:
1. an instance or single occasion
2. a period of time considered as a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something
3. an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities) - e.g., "he waited a long time", "survival time" is a period of time. Wait, let's check 3.
Wait, let's look at WordNet senses for "time".
Sense 1: an instance or single occasion for some event
Sense 2: a period of time considered as a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something
Sense 3: an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)
Sense 4: a suitable moment
Sense 5: the continuum of experience in which events pass from the future through the present to the past
Sense 6: a person's experience on a particular occasion
Sense 7: a reading of a point in time as given by a clock
Sense 8: the fourth coordinate that is required (along with three spatial dimensions) to specify a physical event
Sense 9: rhythm as given by division into parts of equal duration
Sense 10: the period of time a prisoner is imprisoned

Wait, "survival time" is a period of time. Is it sense 3? "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)" -> "survival time" is a period marked by the attribute of survival.
Let's consider "time" in "survival time".
Could it be sense 3? "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)" -> "he waited a long time", "the time of year", "survival time".
Let's check WordNet for "survival time".
Actually, "time" as a duration or period.
Sense 3: "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)" -> examples: "he waited a long time", "the time of year", "it was a time of great prosperity".
Wait, sense 3 is "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)".
Is there another sense for duration?
Let's check WordNet:
time.n.01: an instance or single occasion for some event
time.n.02: a period of time considered as a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something
time.n.03: an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)
time.n.04: a suitable moment
time.n.05: the continuum of experience in which events pass from the future through the present to the past
time.n.06: a person's experience on a particular occasion
time.n.07: a reading of a point in time as given by a clock
time.n.08: the fourth coordinate that is required (along with three spatial dimensions) to specify a physical event
time.n.09: rhythm as given by division into parts of equal duration
time.n.10: the period of time a prisoner is imprisoned

Wait, "survival time" is a period of time. Is it sense 3?
Let's search for "survival time" in WordNet or similar datasets.
In SemCor or similar, "survival time" might be mapped to time.n.03.
Let's re-read sense 3: "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)". Survival is an activity/attribute.
What about sense 5? "the continuum of experience..." No.
What about sense 2? "a period of time considered as a resource..." No, survival time is not a resource under your control.
So sense 3 is the best fit.

Let's double check.
"survival time" -> period of time.
"he waited a long time" -> period of time.
"time of year" -> period of time.
"survival time" is a period of time marked by the attribute of survival.
Therefore, sense 3.
Let's consider if "time" in "survival time" could be sense 3. Yes.
I will return 3.
Wait, let's think if there's any other.
"survival time" is a duration.
WordNet 3.0:
time.n.03: an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)
"he waited a long time"
"the time of year"
"it was a time of great prosperity"
"survival time" fits "period marked by specific attributes".

Let's check if there is a "duration" sense. No, WordNet doesn't have a separate "duration" sense, it's usually under sense 3 or sometimes sense 5, but sense 3 is "period".
I'll go with 3.

1. continue to live through hardship or adversity
2. continue in existence after (an adversity, etc.)
3. support oneself
4. live longer than

In the sentence, "survived for an average of 12.1 months" means they continued to live through the adversity (cancer/treatment).
Wait, "continue to live through hardship or adversity" fits "survived for an average of 12.1 months".
Let's check the examples.
Sense 1: We went without water and food for 3 days. (continue to live through hardship or adversity)
Sense 2: He survived the cancer against all odds. (continue in existence after an adversity)
Sense 3: support oneself
Sense 4: live longer than

In the sentence, "survived for an average of 12.1 months" means they continued to live.
Is it sense 1? "continue to live through hardship or adversity"
Let's see: "survived for an average of 12.1 months" -> they continued to live.
Wait, "survive" in medical contexts often means "continue to live".
Sense 1: continue to live through hardship or adversity.
Let's look at WordNet senses for "survive":
1. continue to live through hardship or adversity ("We went without water and food for 3 days"; "How did you survive in the woods?"; "She lived through two war")
2. continue in existence after (an adversity, etc.) ("He survived the cancer against all odds"; "The two men survived")
3. support oneself ("he could barely exist on such a low wage"; "Can you live on $2000 a month in New York City?"; "Many people in the world have to subsist on $1 a day")
4. live longer than ("She outlived her husband by many years")

In the sentence: "Patients receiving Alimta and cisplatin survived for an average of 12.1 months..."
This matches "continue to live through hardship or adversity" because they are living through the disease/treatment for a duration.
Wait, "survived for an average of 12.1 months" -> they continued to live.
Let's check if there is a better fit.
Sense 1: continue to live through hardship or adversity.
Yes, "survived for an average of 12.1 months" means they continued to live through the hardship (cancer).
Let's consider Sense 1.
I will return 1.
Wait, let's re-read carefully: "Patients receiving Alimta and cisplatin survived for an average of 12.1 months..."

Senses:
1. examine and note the similarities or differences of
2. be comparable
3. consider or describe as similar, equal, or analogous
4. to form the comparative or superlative form on an adjective or adverb

In the sentence, "compared with" means examining and noting the differences (or similarities) between the survival times of two groups.
Let's look at the options.
Sense 1: examine and note the similarities or differences of. "Patients ... survived for an average of 12.1 months, [when we] examine and note the differences [of this] with 9.3 months..."
Wait, "compared with" is a participle phrase meaning "when compared with". The action is examining and noting the differences.
Sense 2: be comparable. "This car does not compare with..." (intransitive). Here it's "compared with", which is passive/participle.
Sense 3: consider or describe as similar, equal, or analogous. "We can compare the Han dynasty to the Romans".
Sense 4: grammar.

Let's check the exact definitions from WordNet or similar.
WordNet "compare":
1. compare, compare to, compare with - examine and note the similarities or differences of; "John compared his haircut to his friend's"
2. compare - be comparable; "This car does not compare with our line of Mercedes"
3. liken, compare, equate - consider or describe as similar, equal, or analogous; "We can compare the Han dynasty to the Romans"
4. compare - to form the comparative or superlative form on an adjective or adverb

In the sentence: "Patients receiving Alimta and cisplatin survived for an average of 12.1 months, compared with 9.3 months in those receiving cisplatin alone."
This is sense 1: examine and note the similarities or differences of. The survival time of 12.1 months is being examined and noted in relation to (compared with) 9.3 months.

Let's double check.
"compared with" -> sense 1.
Yes, "compare with" is explicitly in sense 1's synonyms in WordNet: "compare, compare to, compare with".
Therefore, the correct sense is 1.

The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "effective" in the given sentence.
Sentence: "In the treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer, Alimta was as <t>effective</t> as the comparators."

Senses:
1. producing or capable of producing an intended result or having a striking effect
2. able to accomplish a purpose; functioning effectively
3. works well as a means or remedy
4. exerting force or influence
5. existing in fact; not theoretical; real
6. ready for service

In the sentence, "effective" refers to a medical treatment (Alimta) producing an intended result (treating non-small cell lung cancer).
Sense 1: "producing or capable of producing an intended result or having a striking effect" fits perfectly.
Sense 3: "works well as a means or remedy" - "an effective reprimand". Wait, "works well as a means or remedy" is also a strong candidate. Let's look closely at the examples.
Sense 1 example: "an air-cooled motor was more effective than a witch's broomstick for rapid long-distance transportation"
Sense 3 example: "an effective reprimand"

Wait, "producing or capable of producing an intended result" is the most general and fits "Alimta was as effective as the comparators".
Let's check WordNet for "effective".
WordNet senses for "effective":
1. effective - producing or capable of producing an intended result or having a striking effect; "an air-cooled motor was more effective than a witch's broomstick for rapid long-distance transportation"- LewisMumford; "effective teaching"; "a more effective way to gain experience"; "effective reproof"
2. effective - able to accomplish a purpose; functioning effectively; "people who will do nothing unless they get something out of it for themselves are often highly effective persons"- G.B.Shaw; "effective personnel"; "an effective reprimand"; "a lotion that is effective for insect bites"
Wait, "an effective reprimand" is in sense 2 in WordNet? Let me check.
Actually, WordNet 3.1:
effective (adj)
1. producing or capable of producing an intended result or having a striking effect; "an air-cooled motor was more effective than a witch's broomstick for rapid long-distance transportation"- LewisMumford; "effective teaching"; "a more effective way to gain experience"; "effective reproof"
2. able to accomplish a purpose; functioning effectively; "people who will do nothing unless they get something out of it for themselves are often highly effective persons"- G.B.Shaw; "effective personnel"; "an effective reprimand"; "a lotion that is effective for insect bites"
3. works well as a means or remedy; "an effective reprimand" (Wait, is this a separate sense in some dataset?)
Let's search the exact definitions provided.
1. definition=producing or capable of producing an intended result or having a striking effect; -LewisMumford | examples=an air-cooled motor was more effective than a witch's broomstick for rapid long-distance transportation
2. definition=able to accomplish a purpose; functioning effectively; -G.B.Shaw | examples=people who will do nothing unless they get something out of it for themselves are often highly effective persons...
3. definition=works well as a means or remedy | examples=an effective reprimand
4. definition=exerting force or influence | examples=the law is effective immediately
5. definition=existing in fact; not theoretical; real | examples=a decline in the effective demand
6. definition=ready for service | examples=the fort was held by about 100 effective soldiers

Wait, if "an effective reprimand" is in sense 3, then sense 1 is "producing or capable of producing an intended result or having a striking effect".
In the sentence: "Alimta was as effective as the comparators."
This means it produces the intended result (treating the cancer).
Is it sense 1? Yes, "producing or capable of producing an intended result".
Let's consider "works well as a means or remedy". A medical treatment is a remedy. But "producing an intended result" is the primary definition for a drug being effective.
Let's look at similar examples. "The drug is effective." -> producing an intended result.
Sense 1: "producing or capable of producing an intended result or having a striking effect"
I will go with 1.
Let's double check if there's any other sense.
"Alimta was as effective as the comparators." -> producing the intended result.
Sense 1 is the best fit.
Another option: Sense 1 is the most common for "effective" in medical contexts (producing intended result).
I'll output 1.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "In patients who had received chemotherapy in the past, the average survival <t>time</t> was 8.3 months with Alimta, compared with 7.9 months with docetaxel."
The word "time" here refers to a period of time, specifically the duration of survival.
Let's look at the senses:
1. an instance or single occasion
2. a period of time considered as a resource
3. an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities) - wait, "survival time" is a period of time. Let's re-read the definitions.
Wait, "survival time" is a period of time. Is it sense 3? "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)" - e.g., "he waited a long time".
Wait, could it be 5? "the continuum of experience..." No.
Let's check WordNet senses for "time".
1. an instance or single occasion for some event
2. a period of time considered as a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something
3. an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)
4. a suitable moment
5. the continuum of experience in which events pass from the future through the present to the past
6. a person's experience on a particular occasion
7. a reading of a point in time as given by a clock
8. the fourth coordinate that is required (along with three spatial dimensions) to specify a physical event
9. rhythm as given by division into parts of equal duration
10. the period of time a prisoner is imprisoned

Wait, "survival time" is a period of time. Is it sense 3? "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)" -> "survival time" is a period marked by the attribute of survival.
Let's consider "time" in "survival time". It means a duration or period.
Sense 3: "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)" -> examples: "he waited a long time", "the time of year", "during that time".
Wait, could it be 5? No.
Let's search for "survival time" in WordNet.
Actually, "time" as a duration or period is often sense 3.
Let's check the examples for sense 3: "he waited a long time", "the time of year", "during that time".
Is there another sense for duration?
Wait, if it's "survival time", it's a period of time.
Let's look at sense 3 again: "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)". Survival is an activity/state.
What about sense 2? "a period of time considered as a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something". Survival time is not a resource under your control.
What about sense 10? "the period of time a prisoner is imprisoned". No.
So it must be 3.

Let's double check.
"average survival time" -> a period of time.
Sense 3: "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)"
Examples: "he waited a long time", "the time of year", "during that time".
Is "survival time" an indefinite period? Well, "8.3 months" is a definite period, but the sense definition says "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)". Wait, "survival time" is a period marked by the attribute of survival.
Let's consider if "time" here means "duration". WordNet doesn't have a specific "duration" sense other than maybe 3.
Wait, let's look at the options.
1. instance
2. resource
3. indefinite period (marked by specific attributes or activities)
4. suitable moment
5. continuum
6. experience
7. reading of a clock
8. fourth coordinate
9. rhythm
10. prison term

"survival time" is a period of time. Sense 3 is the best fit.
Let's review the definition of sense 3: "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)".
Example: "he waited a long time".
Another example in WordNet for sense 3: "the time of year", "during that time".
Is there any other sense? No.
Therefore, the answer is 3.
Wait, let's think if "time" in "survival time" could be sense 5? No, sense 5 is "the continuum of experience...".
Could it be sense 3? Yes.
I will output 3.

Therefore, sense 2 is the correct one.

Let's double check.
"average survival time was 8.3 months" -> duration.
Sense 2: "a time unit of approximately 30 days" -> duration.

Senses:
1. examine and note the similarities or differences of
2. be comparable
3. consider or describe as similar, equal, or analogous
4. to form the comparative or superlative form on an adjective or adverb

In the sentence, "compared with" means examining and noting the differences (or similarities) between the average survival time with Alimta (8.3 months) and with docetaxel (7.9 months).
This matches sense 1: "examine and note the similarities or differences of".

Let's check the examples:
Sense 1: John compared his haircut to his friend's. (Similar structure: X compared with Y to note differences/similarities).
Sense 2: This car does not compare with our line of Mercedes. (Intransitive, meaning "be comparable").
Sense 3: We can compare the Han dynasty to the Romans. (Consider as similar/analogous).
Sense 4: Grammar sense.

The sentence uses "compared with" to note the difference in survival times. Thus, sense 1 is the most appropriate.
Wait, let's look at the phrasing: "8.3 months with Alimta, compared with 7.9 months with docetaxel."
This is a past participle phrase meaning "when compared with" or "examining the difference between".
Sense 1 fits perfectly.
Let's double check.
"examine and note the similarities or differences of" -> Yes, comparing 8.3 months to 7.9 months.

Therefore, the correct sense number is 1.
I will return only the number 1.

In the sentence, "survival time" refers to the time a patient remains alive.
This matches sense 1: "a state of surviving; remaining alive".

Let's double check.
Sense 1: a state of surviving; remaining alive. (e.g., survival time, survival rate).
Sense 2: natural selection / evolution.
Sense 3: a relic or something that survives.

Therefore, the correct sense is 1.
I will return only the number 1.
