Hey, I prototyped something similar to this a while back.
It used NLP and Elsavier search API to do entity detection and sentiment analysis on drug/effect pairs.
So you would search like "Mirtazapine", and then it would create a word-graph where the drug was in the middle, and it would be connected by things like:
Mirtazapine --> Reduces --> Anxiety/Depression
Mirtazapine --> Increases --> Hunger
The words were colored either green/red based on whether it was considered a positive or negative effect, and the size was based on the size of the effect and numbers of mentions.
It was meant to be a tool for clinicians and prescribers to be able to enter a medication and get an easy overview of its effect.
Do you have any interest in pursuing this further?
I know a few investors who I think might still be interested in this.
