    abstract = "Biomedical data-to-text generation aims at generating textual natural language descriptions that can fluently and precisely describe the biomedical structured data. However, biomedical data-to-text generation faces the dilemma of a lack of labeled data due to the privacy and scarcity of medical data. Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated the ability to solve few-shot tasks through in-context learning (ICL). In this paper, we are the first to explore the performance of different LLMs in the biomedical data-to-text generation task.To address the issues of semantic sparsity and misinterpretation of numerical values in biomedical structured data, we propose an EAG (Enrich, Aggregate, and Generate) framework, a simple but efficient LLM-based three-stage biomedical D2T approach in low-resource scenarios. We conduct extensive evaluations of closed-source general LLMs, open-source general LLMs, and open-source medical LLMs. The results show that the EAG framework provides good interpretability and superior performance, achieving state-of-the-art performance on the BioLeaflets dataset. The code and data will be released at https://github.com/FXLP/EAG."
