This is a subset filtered for the words: obesity, weight loss, and diabetes.
The purpose of this extraction is to further research in Biomedicine + NLP. While there are many biomedical datasets, most of them focus on the clinical space, which is often different from the early developments and discovery.
The Markdown format includes figure description, tables, and a YAML header with some metadata like original license. It is filtered to remove Non-Derivative licenses as you cannot modify or remix the data for other purposes.
