Information systems in medicine with a focus on scientific information in clinical practice and biomedical research
Papíková, Vendula ; Vlasák, Rudolf (advisor) ; Souček, Martin (referee) ; Špála, Milan (referee)
The dissertation deals with information systems in medicine with a focus on scientific information. Topics are treated from the perspective of a user, whether a scientist or a doctor in the clinical practice. Attention is therefore devoted to information sources, search tools, the ability to communicate and share scientific information, and current methods of analytical and synthetic processing of published medical literature, both at the level of value-added information services and at the level of automatic text processing. -- The topics mentioned above are divided into separate chapters. A large portion of the text devoted to new information sources is added to an overview of traditional biomedical databases. Further, current trends in biomedical information searching are described. Next, current possibilities of communication and sharing of scientific knowledge via the Internet and applications and services of Web 2.0 ar listed. Particular attention is paid to scientific information for clinical desicion-making support. -- The dissertation newly presents a comprehensive classification of biomedical information resources supplemented by illustrative examples. Further, five case tasks are described. Three of them demonstrate the claims made in the text. The other two test non-traditional retrieval...

COR: Web Tool for Clinical Evidence Retrieval in Cardiology
Papíková, Vendula ; Zvolský, Miroslav
Research-based medical evidence is generated at an exponential rate, but it is not readily available to clinicians yet. Besides that clinical practitioners lack the time needed to search for it and lack the skills needed to identify it, appraise it and apply it in clinical decision-making. All that causes the need for new information resources reaching the „3Rs“ of evidence-based communication, i.e. reliability, relevance and readability. This work describes newly developed web application aimed to implement the mentioned features to evidence-based information resource in the field of cardiology. Selected entries from database PubMed are utilized as the source of trustworthy evidence.

The spectrum of information resources to support evidence-based medicine
Papíková, Vendula ; Papík, R.
Since the early 90s of the 20th century when it began to systematically develop tools and methodology for implementation of evidence-based medicine (EBM) into clinical practice, there has been considerable development of information resources and services designed to support EBM. This paper summarizes the current range of specialized documents, databases and information services focussed on this task, and mentions possible future developments in this area.

Database of biomedical information resources
Papíková, Vendula
The work describes the range of sources of scientific medical information and suggests a proposal for its classification, which takes into consideration the fact, that the quantity and diversity of scientific information sources in the major biomedical disciplines have been very extended. According to the traditional typology of databases used within the framework of the information and library science, information resources are sorted into four basic groups: the bibliographic, full text, factual, and sources of type of register, catalog and directory. Often we meet also with resources, which are a combination of the above mentioned types (hybrid sources). With the increasing amount of information in medicine, however, we can see not only expansion of the amount of databases within the categories, but also entirely new sources of information, which cannot be classified in any of the above groups. In view of their focus and the way of their genesis, they can be called as generative and

HTA and EBM: different names, a similar concept
Papíková, Vendula
The terms "Health Technology Assessment" and "Evidence-Based Medicine" are increasingly mentioned in various contexts recently. Projects in this area in terms of content and methodology often overlap, other time diverge. This work deals with the analysis of the motivation and objectives of processes, which stand in the background of the above mentioned concepts. In deeper analysis of their historical development and present interpretation one can trace not only common elements, but also the mutual complementarity.

Open Information Sources and Competitive Intelligence. Databases for Medical and Pharmaceutical Purposes
Papík, R. ; Papíková, Vendula
Competitive intelligence processes are often used in medical and pharmaceutical institutions and companies in the world. The pharmaceutical industry is a typical sector and meeting point of two main directions of corporative potential, i.e. research and development activities and business activities. Many open sources, e.g. databases from vendors and centers, are relevant both for R&D usage and for business utilization. This paper indicates overview of the relevant sources with their brief description and content characterization.

E-learning and the Impact of Information Delivery to Students and Patients in Multilingual Setting
Zvárová, Jana ; Dostálová, T. ; Zvára Jr., Karel ; Seydlová, M. ; Papíková, Vendula ; Zvolský, Miroslav
Particularly important in educational programmes and knowledge dissemination is the role of the Internet. We show several approaches how to use Internet and Web 2.0 based e-learning tools in doctoral and lifelong education. Within the fields of health and medicine there are three main areas, where the e-learning approach has been applied: medical training, research translation and health literacy. We show some e-learning tools, especially interactive books, interactive programs and system ExaMe, using examples from the field of dentistry. We also concern with problem of transferring knowledge in different languages using Internet based European Journal for Biomedical Informatics.
