Some implementations provide a computer-implemented method for identifying, from on-line postings, reports of potential adverse effects resulting from consuming a healthcare product, the method including: receiving a log of on-line postings regarding consuming the healthcare product; receiving a database comprising a healthcare taxonomy and a set of linguistic rules; analyzing, based on the healthcare taxonomy, the log of on-line postings to identify a report of at least one adverse effect resulting from consuming the healthcare product; generating a score for the identified report according to the healthcare taxonomy and the set of linguistic rules; comparing the generated score with a threshold; and in response to determining that the generated score is above the threshold, flagging the identified report as a report of a potential adverse effect. |
