Target lemma: effect
Target surface form: effects
Context:
The active substance in Alimta, pemetrexed, is a cytotoxic medicine (a medicine that kills cells that are dividing, such as cancer cells), which belongs to the group antimetabolites. In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the genetic material of cells). How has Alimta been studied? For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one main study in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before. The effects of Alimta in combination with cisplatin were compared with those of cisplatin alone. For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the <t>effects</t> of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past. Alimta was also compared with gemcitabine (another anticancer medicine), both in combination with cisplatin, in a study involving 1,725 patients who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past.

*   Target lemma: `effect`
    *   Target surface form: `effects`
    *   Context: "For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the <t>effects</t> of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel..."
    *   Surrounding context: The text discusses a medicine (Alimta), its mechanism (cytotoxic, antimetabolite), and clinical studies comparing its efficacy/outcomes against other medicines (cisplatin, docetaxel, gemcitabine).

    *   Sense 1: `effect%1:19:00::` - a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon (consequence, outcome, result).
    *   Sense 2: `effect%1:07:00::` - an outward appearance (impression).

    *   Sense 6: `effect%1:26:00::` - a symptom caused by an illness or a drug.

    *   The context is medical/pharmacological.
    *   "the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel"
    *   Does "effects" here mean "symptoms caused by a drug" (Sense 6) or "outcomes/results of the drug's action" (Sense 1)?
    *   In clinical trials, when comparing the "effects" of two drugs, researchers are usually looking at the *efficacy* (the result/outcome of the treatment) as well as the *side effects* (symptoms).
    *   Let's look at Sense 6 again: "a symptom caused by an illness or a drug". This usually refers to side effects or specific physiological responses.
    *   Let's look at Sense 1 again: "a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon" (consequence, outcome, result).
    *   In the sentence "the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel", the "effects" refer to the overall results/outcomes of the treatment (e.g., tumor shrinkage, survival rates). While "side effects" are symptoms, the general "effects" of a drug in a comparative study usually refer to the results/outcomes.
    *   Wait, let's re-read Sense 6: "a symptom caused by an illness or a drug". Example: "the effects of sleep loss; the effect of the anesthetic".
    *   Let's re-read Sense 1: "a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon". Example: "the magnetic effect was greater when the rod was lengthwise".
    *   In medical literature, "the effects of [drug]" often encompasses both the therapeutic effect (the intended result) and the side effects.
    *   If the text is comparing the *efficacy* of Alimta vs Docetaxel, "effects" means "results/outcomes".
    *   If the text is talking about *side effects*, "effects" means "symptoms".
    *   Looking at the context: "For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel...". This is describing the study's objective. Usually, the primary objective is the therapeutic effect (outcome).
    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 6:
        *   Sense 1: Result/Outcome.
        *   Sense 6: Symptom.
    *   Is the "effect" of a drug a "symptom"? Not necessarily. The therapeutic effect (e.g., curing the cancer) is not a "symptom". A "side effect" is a symptom.
    *   Therefore, "effects" in the context of comparing drug performance in a clinical trial most likely refers to the results/outcomes (Sense 1).

    *   Sense 1: "a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon" (consequence, outcome, result).
    *   Sense 6: "a symptom caused by an illness or a drug".
    *   In "the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel", the researchers are comparing how well the drugs worked (outcomes). This fits Sense 1 better than Sense 6, as the primary goal of a drug study is to measure the therapeutic outcome, not just the symptoms caused by the drug.

    *   Sense 1: result, outcome.
    *   Sense 6: symptom.
    *   "The effects of Alimta" = The results of using Alimta.
    *   This is a classic use of "effect" as "result".

    *   Sense 1: effect%1:19:00::
    *   Sense 2: effect%1:07:00::
    *   Sense 3: effect%1:09:00::
    *   Sense 4: effect%1:10:00::
    *   Sense 5: effect%1:07:01::
    *   Sense 6: effect%1:26:00::
    *   The index for Sense 1 is 1.
    *   The index for Sense 6 is 6.

    *   Wait, let me double-check Sense 6 again. "a symptom caused by an illness or a drug".
    *   If the text meant "side effects", it would likely say "side effects". "The effects of Alimta" in a comparative study usually refers to the overall impact/result.
    *   Example for Sense 1: "the magnetic effect was greater when the rod was lengthwise". This is a cause-and-effect relationship.
    *   Example for Sense 6: "the effects of sleep loss". Sleep loss causes certain symptoms (fatigue, irritability).
    *   In the context of a drug trial, "the effects of Alimta" are the results produced by the drug. This is a cause-and-effect relationship.

    *   Sense 1: result/outcome.
    *   Sense 6: symptom.
    *   Comparing the *efficacy* of two drugs is comparing their *results*.
    *   Therefore, Sense 1 is the most appropriate.

    *   Looking at the candidate senses:
        *   Sense 1: "a detailed critical inspection" (survey). This is close, but usually refers to the act of inspecting.
        *   Sense 3: "a written document describing the findings of some individual or group" (report, written report). In medical literature, "a study" often refers to the research project and its documented results.

        *   Sense 1: "detailed critical inspection" (survey).
        *   Sense 3: "a written document describing the findings..."
    *   In the sentence "in one study involving 571 patients", "study" refers to the clinical trial. A clinical trial is a systematic investigation (inspection/survey) but is almost always referred to as a "study" in the sense of the research project/report.

    *   Sense 3: "a written document describing the findings" (synonym: report).
    *   In the context "in one study involving 571 patients", it refers to the research project/trial.
    *   Is a clinical trial a "detailed critical inspection" or a "written document"? It's the process of investigation.
    *   However, in common usage, "a study" in this context often refers to the research project as a whole, which is documented in a report.
    *   Let's compare with Sense 1's synonym "survey". A survey is a type of study.
    *   Let's look at Sense 3's example: "this accords with the recent study by Hill and Dale". This is exactly how "study" is used in scientific literature (referring to the published work/findings).
    *   The context "in one study involving 571 patients" is very similar to "the recent study by Hill and Dale".

    *   Sense 1: detailed critical inspection.
    *   Sense 3: written document describing findings.
    *   In "one study involving 571 patients", the "study" is the clinical trial. A clinical trial is an investigation.
    *   Is "detailed critical inspection" a good fit for a clinical trial? Not exactly.
    *   Is "written document describing the findings" a good fit? Often, when people say "in a study", they are referring to the published results of that study.
    *   Let's look at the other senses again. None of the others (room, discipline, sketch, etc.) fit.
    *   Between 1 and 3, 3 is the standard sense for a scientific study mentioned in a medical text.

    *   Sense 3: "a written document describing the findings of some individual or group".
    *   Sense 1: "a detailed critical inspection".
    *   In medical contexts, "a study" is almost always Sense 3 (the report/documented research).

    *   Sense 1: survey, inspection.

        *   Sense 2: "engage as a participant" (active verb, often transitive: "I involved him in the project").
        *   Sense 5: "contain as a part" (descriptive: "The meal involves six courses").
    *   In "a study involving 571 patients", the word "involving" functions as a participle modifying "study". It describes what the study consists of.
    *   Comparing "The study involved 571 patients" to "The dinner involved six courses". Both describe the components of the event/entity.

    *   Sense 2 is often used for bringing someone into a situation (often against their will or as a specific action).
    *   Sense 5 is used for components or constituents.
    *   In medical literature, "a study involving [number] patients" is synonymous with "a study including [number] patients". "Include" is a synonym for "contain as a part".

    *   Sense 5: "contain as a part".
    *   Example: "Dinner at Joe's always involves at least six courses."
    *   Context: "one study involving 571 patients".
    *   This fits well.

    *   Sense 2: "engage as a participant".
    *   Example: "Don't involve me in your family affairs!"
    *   This is more about the act of engagement than the composition of a group.

    *   Sense 5 is the best fit for "containing as a part" or "including".

Target lemma: patient
Target surface form: patients
Context:
The active substance in Alimta, pemetrexed, is a cytotoxic medicine (a medicine that kills cells that are dividing, such as cancer cells), which belongs to the group antimetabolites. In the body, pemetrexed is converted into an active form that blocks the activity of the enzymes that are involved in producing nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the genetic material of cells). How has Alimta been studied? For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one main study in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before. The effects of Alimta in combination with cisplatin were compared with those of cisplatin alone. For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 <t>patients</t> with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past. Alimta was also compared with gemcitabine (another anticancer medicine), both in combination with cisplatin, in a study involving 1,725 patients who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past.

    *   The phrase is "locally advanced or metastatic disease".

    *   "Metastatic" refers to cancer that has spread to distant organs.
    *   Therefore, "locally" here refers to the location/area of the body where the disease is present (restricted to a specific area/region).

    *   "Locally advanced" in oncology means the tumor has spread to nearby tissues (local spread) but not distant ones.
    *   While "topically" (the synonym for sense 2) usually refers to applying medicine to the skin, the core definition "to a restricted area of the body" fits the medical context of "locally advanced disease" much better than "by a particular locality" (which implies a town or region).

    *   Sense 1: Geographic/Administrative.
    *   Sense 2: Anatomical/Medical.
    *   Context: Medical (cancer staging).
    *   Conclusion: Sense 2 is the correct fit.

        *   Sense 1 (detailed critical inspection) is close, but usually refers to a survey or a specific examination of something.
        *   Sense 3 (a written document describing the findings) is very common for "study" in scientific literature.
    *   Wait, let's re-evaluate Sense 1 vs Sense 3.
        *   Sense 1: "a detailed critical inspection" (synonym: survey).
        *   Sense 3: "a written document describing the findings of some individual or group" (synonyms: report, written report).
    *   In the sentence "in a study involving 1,725 patients", the "study" is the research project/investigation.
    *   Is a clinical trial a "detailed critical inspection" (Sense 1) or a "written document" (Sense 3)?
    *   Actually, in many WordNet-based WSD tasks, "study" as in a scientific study/research project is often mapped to the "detailed critical inspection" or "report" sense depending on the specific WordNet version.
    *   Let's look at the examples for Sense 3: "this accords with the recent study by Hill and Dale". This fits the pattern of referring to a scientific study.
    *   Let's look at Sense 1: "a detailed critical inspection".
    *   In the context of "a study involving 1,725 patients", it refers to the research investigation.
    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 3:
        *   Sense 1 is more about the *act* or the *process* of inspection.
        *   Sense 3 is about the *result* or the *document* describing the findings.
    *   However, in scientific contexts, "the study" often refers to the entire research project (the design, the execution, and the reporting).
    *   Let's check if there's a better sense. None of the others (room, discipline, sketch, etc.) fit.
    *   Between 1 and 3: "a study involving 1,725 patients". This describes the scope of the research project. Sense 3's example "the recent study by Hill and Dale" is almost identical in usage to "the study involving 1,725 patients".

    *   Sense 1: detailed critical inspection.
    *   Sense 3: written document describing the findings.
    *   In medical literature, "a study" is the research project. While it results in a document, the "study involving 1,725 patients" refers to the investigation itself.
    *   However, WordNet's sense 3 (report/written report) is frequently used for scientific studies.
    *   Let's re-read Sense 1: "a detailed critical inspection". A clinical trial is a detailed inspection/investigation.
    *   Let's look at the synonyms for Sense 1: "survey".
    *   Let's look at the synonyms for Sense 3: "report, written report".
    *   "In a study involving 1,725 patients" -> "In a report involving 1,725 patients" (slightly awkward) vs "In a survey involving 1,725 patients" (better, though "survey" isn't exactly a clinical trial).
    *   Actually, looking at how WordNet is typically used for "scientific study", Sense 3 is the most common mapping for the noun referring to the research project/paper.

    *   "Alimta has been studied in one main study in 456 patients..."
    *   "the effects of Alimta were compared... in one study involving 571 patients..."
    *   "in a study involving 1,725 patients..."
    *   "In all three studies, the main measure of effectiveness was..."
    *   These all refer to the clinical trials.
    *   Sense 3: "a written document describing the findings of some individual or group".
    *   Sense 1: "a detailed critical inspection".
    *   If I have to choose the *best* one, Sense 3 is the standard for "a study" in the sense of a scientific paper or the research it describes.

    *   Sense 1: detailed critical inspection.
    *   Sense 3: written document describing the findings.
    *   In the phrase "a study involving 1,725 patients", the "study" is the research project. Is a research project a "written document"? Not strictly, but the term "study" is used interchangeably for the project and the paper.
    *   Is a research project a "detailed critical inspection"? Yes, it is a systematic investigation.
    *   Let's look at the examples again. Sense 3: "this accords with the recent study by Hill and Dale". This is exactly how scientific studies are referenced.
    *   Sense 1 doesn't have an example, but the synonym is "survey".
    *   In most WSD datasets (like SemCor), "study" in this context is mapped to the sense of a research project/report.

    *   Sense 3 is the most fitting for a scientific/medical study.

*   Target lemma: `involve`
    *   Target surface form: `involving`
    *   Context: "...in a study <t>involving</t> 1,725 patients who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past."
    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `connect closely and often incriminatingly` (affect, regard)
        2.  `engage as a participant`
        3.  `have as a necessary feature` (imply)
        4.  `require as useful, just, or proper` (necessitate, need)
        5.  `contain as a part`
        6.  `occupy or engage the interest of`
        7.  `make complex or intricate or complicated`

    *   The sentence is: "...in a study involving 1,725 patients..."
    *   Here, "involving" describes the study. The study *includes* or *consists of* 1,725 patients.
    *   The patients are the participants in the study.

    *   Sense 1: `connect closely and often incriminatingly` - Not applicable.
    *   Sense 2: `engage as a participant` - This fits well. The study engages the patients as participants.
    *   Sense 3: `have as a necessary feature` - A study doesn't necessarily *require* these specific 1,725 patients as a feature of the concept of a study, but rather it *includes* them.
    *   Sense 4: `require as useful, just, or proper` - Not applicable.
    *   Sense 5: `contain as a part` - A study "contains" patients as part of its sample. This is a strong candidate.
    *   Sense 6: `occupy or engage the interest of` - Not applicable.
    *   Sense 7: `make complex or intricate or complicated` - Not applicable.

    *   Sense 2: `engage as a participant`
    *   Sense 5: `contain as a part`

    Let's look at the examples:
    *   Sense 2: "Don't involve me in your family affairs!" (Active engagement/participation).
    *   Sense 5: "Dinner at Joe's always involves at least six courses" (Composition/inclusion).

    In "a study involving 1,725 patients", the patients are the participants. While "contain as a part" (Sense 5) is close, "engage as a participant" (Sense 2) specifically describes the relationship between a study and its subjects.

    Wait, let's re-evaluate.
    "A study involving X patients" usually means the study *included* X patients.
    Does "engage as a participant" fit better than "contain as a part"?
    If I say "The project involves three teams," it means the project includes those teams.
    If I say "The study involves 1,725 patients," it means the patients are the participants.

    Let's check WordNet's typical usage for "involve" in the context of studies.
    Often, "involve" in "a study involving X" is treated as "including" or "consisting of".
    Sense 5: `contain as a part`.
    Sense 2: `engage as a participant`.

    If the sense is "to include as a participant", Sense 2 is very specific.
    If the sense is "to include as a component", Sense 5 is more general.

    Let's look at the examples again.
    Sense 2: "Don't involve me in your family affairs!" (This is more about being drawn into something).
    Sense 5: "Dinner at Joe's always involves at least six courses" (This is about what the dinner consists of).

    A study "consists of" or "includes" a certain number of patients.
    However, the patients are *participants*.

    Let's look at other examples of "involve" in medical literature: "A randomized trial involving 500 patients..."
    This usually means the patients were the subjects/participants.

    Comparing Sense 2 and Sense 5 again:
    Sense 2: `engage as a participant`
    Sense 5: `contain as a part`

    If I say "The study involves 1,725 patients," am I saying the study *contains* them as a part, or that it *engages* them as participants?
    Usually, "involve" in this context is synonymous with "include".
    "Include" can be "contain as a part".

    Let's search for "involve" in WordNet (via other sources) to see if there's a better fit.
    Actually, looking at the provided senses:
    Sense 2: `engage as a participant`
    Sense 5: `contain as a part`

    In "a study involving 1,725 patients", the patients are not just "parts" of the study (like a chapter is a part of a book), but they are the *participants*.

    Let's try to see if Sense 2 is too "active" (like "don't involve me").
    "The study involved 1,725 patients" -> The study engaged 1,725 patients as participants. This sounds correct.

    Let's double-check Sense 5: "Dinner... involves six courses." The courses are components of the dinner. Are patients components of a study? In a technical sense, the sample is a component.

    Wait, let's look at Sense 2 again: `engage as a participant`.
    If the study "involved" the patients, it "engaged" them as participants. This is a very precise fit for a clinical trial.

    Let's re-read Sense 5: `contain as a part`.
    If the study "involved" the patients, did it "contain" them as a part? Not really. The study *is* the process; the patients are the *subjects* of that process.

    Therefore, Sense 2 seems more appropriate for people in a study.

    *Self-Correction:* Let me think about this again.
    "A study involving 1,725 patients."
    Is it "The study engaged 1,725 patients as participants" or "The study contained 1,725 patients as a part"?
    "Engaged as a participant" is a much more natural description of the relationship between a study and its human subjects.

    Let's check Sense 3: `have as a necessary feature`.
    "This decision involves many changes."
    A study involving 1,725 patients doesn't mean that having 1,725 patients is a *necessary feature* of the study (it could have had 1,724).

    Let's check Sense 1: `connect closely and often incriminatingly`.
    No.

    Let's check Sense 4: `require as useful, just, or proper`.
    No.

    So it's between 2 and 5.
    Sense 2: `engage as a participant`
    Sense 5: `contain as a part`

    In the context of "a study involving [number] patients", the patients are the participants.
    Example: "The study involved 100 patients." = "The study engaged 100 patients as participants."
    Example: "The dinner involved six courses." = "The dinner contained six courses as a part."

    The patients are not "parts" of the study in the same way courses are parts of a dinner. They are participants in the study.

    Final check:
    Sense 2: `engage as a participant`
    Context: "a study involving 1,725 patients"
    This fits perfectly.

        *   study%1:10:00 (written document describing findings)
    *   In the sentence "In all three studies, the main measure of effectiveness was...", the "studies" are the clinical trials. A clinical trial is a detailed critical inspection/investigation of a drug's effect.
    *   Let's re-read Sense 3: "a written document describing the findings". The text mentions "one main study in 456 patients", "one study involving 571 patients", "a study involving 1,725 patients". These are the trials themselves.
    *   Therefore, Sense 1 ("detailed critical inspection") is a better fit for the research process/trial than Sense 3 ("written document").

    *   Sense 1: detailed critical inspection.
    *   Sense 3: written document describing findings.
    *   Context: "Alimta has been studied in one main study in 456 patients... In all three studies, the main measure of effectiveness was how long the patients survived."
    *   The "studies" here are the clinical trials. A clinical trial is an investigation.
    *   Is "inspection" the right word for "investigation"? In WordNet, `study%1:04:00` is often used for scientific studies.

    *   Sense 1: study%1:04:00 (detailed critical inspection)
    *   Sense 3: study%1:10:00 (written document describing the findings)
    *   If I say "The study found that...", I might be referring to the document (Sense 3) or the investigation (Sense 1).
    *   If I say "The study involved 500 patients", I am referring to the investigation (Sense 1).
    *   The context says "one study involving 571 patients" and "a study involving 1,725 patients". This strongly points to the investigation/process.

    *   Sense 1: detailed critical inspection.
    *   Sense 3: written document.
    *   The process of conducting a clinical trial is a "detailed critical inspection" of the drug's efficacy.

    *   Wait, let me search for "study" in WordNet again.
    *   `study%1:04:00` - a detailed critical inspection.
    *   `study%1:10:00` - a written document describing the findings of some individual or group.
    *   In the context of "a study involving 571 patients", it's the investigation.
    *   Let's check if "survey" (synonym for Sense 1) fits. A survey is a type of study.
    *   Let's check if "report" (synonym for Sense 3) fits. "In all three reports, the main measure of effectiveness was..." - it *could* fit, but the focus is on the trial's design (patients, comparisons), which is the investigation itself.

    *   Sense 1 is the most appropriate for the research project/clinical trial.

Target lemma: main
Target surface form: main
Context:
How has Alimta been studied? For the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, Alimta has been studied in one main study in 456 patients who had not received chemotherapy for their disease before. The effects of Alimta in combination with cisplatin were compared with those of cisplatin alone. For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, the effects of Alimta were compared with those of docetaxel (another anticancer medicine) in one study involving 571 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease who had received chemotherapy in the past. Alimta was also compared with gemcitabine (another anticancer medicine), both in combination with cisplatin, in a study involving 1,725 patients who had not received chemotherapy for lung cancer in the past. In all three studies, the <t>main</t> measure of effectiveness was how long the patients survived. What benefit has Alimta shown during the studies?

Candidate senses:

    *   Context: "In all three studies, the <t>main</t> measure of effectiveness was how long the patients survived."
    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `main%5:00:00:important:00`: most important element (synonyms: chief, primary, principal, master).
        2.  `main%3:00:02::`: (of a clause) capable of standing syntactically alone as a complete sentence (synonyms: independent).
        3.  `main%5:00:00:intense:00`: of force; of the greatest possible intensity.

    *   The sentence is: "In all three studies, the main measure of effectiveness was how long the patients survived."
    *   Here, "main" modifies "measure of effectiveness".
    *   It means the *primary* or *most important* measure used to determine if the drug worked.

    *   Sense 1: "most important element" (chief, primary, principal). This fits perfectly.
    *   Sense 2: Relates to grammar (main clause). Not applicable.
    *   Sense 3: Relates to physical force/intensity (main strength). Not applicable.

    *   The best fit is Sense 1.
