MIRA-Ev:A Benchmark for Granular Evidence Detection and Relational Reasoning in Clinical Exams

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2607. 19201v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Clinical NLP evaluation remains dominated by multiple-choice question answering (MCQA), which scores only final-answer accuracy and cannot detect when a model reaches the correct diagnosis while grounding it in irrelevant, absent, or contradictory evidence.

EHRNote-ChatQA: A Benchmark for Evidence-Grounded Multi-Turn Clinical Question Answering over Longitudinal Discharge Summaries

arXiv:2606. 15735v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Discharge summaries are crucial clinical documents containing the context of a patient's overall hospital stay, and are routinely reviewed by medical experts for patient readmission, ongoing care, and diagnostic decision-making.

Multilingual Medical Reasoning for Question Answering with Large Language Models

The paper introduces a method for generating multilingual reasoning traces for medical question answering using large language models. It creates 500,000 reasoning traces in English, Italian, and Spanish by retrieving medical information from Wikipedia and applies them to MedQA and MedMCQA datasets extended into Italian and Spanish. The approach improves performance in both few‑shot in‑context learning and supervised fine‑tuning, achieving state‑of‑the‑art results for 8B‑parameter LLMs and releasing all resources for further research.

UIC-AIHealth4All at ArchEHR-QA 2026: Answer-First Evidence Grounding for Clinical Question Answering

The UIC-AIHealth4All system was presented for the ArchEHR-QA 2026 shared task on grounded question answering from electronic health records. It participated in evidence identification, answer generation, and answer‑evidence alignment, using an answer‑first pipeline that generates candidate answers with cited note sentences before classifying the full evidence set. The system ranked third in evidence identification, ninth in answer generation, and fifth in answer‑evidence alignment, and a linguistic analysis showed its outputs were harder to read than clinician‑authored references, highlighting the need for readability optimization in clinical NLP.
