Athena Simplified Health Information


Simplified Health Information

Concise relevant Health Information - about Diseases, Symptoms, Diagnostic tests, Treatment options and choice of Drugs is presented here using a radical technology - Logical Progression Engine. Type what you need to know on any health topic here and Athena (named after the Greek Goddess of Wisdom) will show you extensive medical information in a simple language.



What you will find in these pages - Clear, specific and accurate information about your health condition. If we have to include a medical term which your doctor uses, we make sure that we explain the term in simple English so that you understand hitherto unknown medical jargon with ease.

Access to the right information is critical for warding off diseases or managing them. Equally it can be exasperating to find an information overload and it can be arduous to filter through the surfeit of information available. Patients have a hard time coping with their illness as well as coming to terms with medical terminology - jargon. Information is plentiful in the Internet. But it takes quite a bit of effort to narrow it down to the right information. Even if you drill down to the right information, the language and the way the information is presented makes it a laborious task to digest the information.

Please note that all these pages full of rich information are written by a team of highly qualified humans and not churned out by AI tools. We have been using Natural Language Navigation long before the word 'AI' was coined. Our Natural language navigation was developed about 20 years ago.

What you need is the right information - precise and concise, instead of a deluge of a medical treatise written in medical jargon. Athena - TargetWoman Condensed Health information section provides precise and concise health information without any jargon or commercial bias.

'Understanding' language means, amongst other things, knowing what concepts a word or phrase stands for and knowing how to link those concepts together in a meaningful way.

This quotation from the Microsoft website offers a glimpse of the complexities involved in designing one of the most complex tasks of using a computer.

Athena - Introduction: Human Languages are very convoluted. The same words in different context can mean different things.
