This task is typically recognized as 2 sequential subtasks in a pipeline, clinical entity or attribute recognition followed by entity-attribute relation extraction. One problem of pipeline methods is that errors from entity recognition are unavoidably passed to relation extraction. We propose a novel joint deep learning method to recognize clinical entities or attributes and extract entity-attribute relations simultaneously.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The proposed method integrates 2 state-of-the-art methods for named entity recognition and relation extraction, namely bidirectional long short-term memory with conditional random field and bidirectional long short-term memory, into a unified framework. In this method, relation constraints between clinical entities and attributes and weights of the 2 subtasks are also considered simultaneously. We compare the method with other related methods (ie, pipeline methods and other joint deep learning methods) on an existing English corpus from SemEval-2015 and a newly developed Chinese corpus.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Our proposed method achieves the best F1 of 74.46% on entity recognition and the best F1 of 50.21% on relation extraction on the English corpus, and 89.32% and 88.13% on the Chinese corpora, respectively, which outperform the other methods on both tasks.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The joint deep learning\u2013based
