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.

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.

New Possibilities for Scientific Medical Information Retrieval
Papíková, Vendula ; Papík, R.
An importance of Internet as a source of professional information is growing. This poster deals with new, free accessible, as well as licensed information retrieval systems and with web services collective denoted as Web 2.0 in scope of the scholarly information in biomedical sciences. They are presented search engines playing upon clustering and visualization of found documents, deep indexing, social bookmarking, folksonomy and new applications developed via APIs (application programming interfaces), as are alternative user´s interfaces of biomedical databases or so called mushups. There are demonstrated concrete examples of such retrieval systems. This work was supported by projects 1M06014 MŠMT ČR and IAA701010606 GA AV ČR.
