Abstract
Health discussion forums are popular, contain useful information, but are difficult to navigate given the high volume of discussions and the non-standard language used. To simplify exploring the medical discussion forums, we extract from natural language text medical entities using MeSH and use three methods to find relationships between the entities, then form an ontology of those entities as an effective interface for navigating through discussions.
