BioELX is a retrieve‑rerank framework for cross‑lingual biomedical entity linking that tackles two key problems: the English‑biased UMLS alias training data and the degradation caused by naïvely adding context. It fine‑tunes SapBERT_multi with Wikidata‑derived cross‑lingual alias supervision to create shared concept neighborhoods, and then reranks candidates using pretrained LLMs with mention‑anchored prompting to focus on the target mention. Experiments demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art performance on four benchmarks, improving Recall@1 by 4.8–18.2 percentage points without task‑specific annotations.

arXiv:2608. 04144v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Biomedical entity linking grounds mentions in clinical and scientific text to entities in a curated knowledge base (KB) with ontological structure, which supports downstream applications such as literature-scale information extraction and patient-record normalization.

OptimusKG is a multimodal biomedical labeled property graph that integrates structured and semi‑structured resources to preserve detailed, type‑specific metadata across molecular, anatomical, clinical, and environmental domains. The graph contains nearly 191,000 nodes, over 21.8 million edges, and more than 67 million property instances derived from 18 ontologies, with a top‑level schema that enforces node and edge constraints while retaining granular provenance. Validation using the PaperQA3 agent found that 70.0% of sampled edges are supported by literature evidence, and the graph offers a standardized resource for machine learning, knowledge‑grounded retrieval, and hypothesis generation in biomedical research.

The paper introduces a unified framework for aligning biomedical text with knowledge graphs using a lightweight projection learned via contrastive learning, keeping the text encoder and KG embedding model frozen. It evaluates six design choices—text encoder, KG embedding, projection head, triple composition, training direction, and hard‑negative sampling—on a newly created CTD‑Align corpus of 22K chemical‑gene interaction pairs linked to PubMed passages. The study finds that triple composition and training direction have the largest impact, while simpler linear projections over concatenated subject, predicate, and object embeddings yield the best performance.
