Dialog One Releases New Dialog One Pharmaceutical
Module
Dialog Corp. has announced the
release of the Dialog One Pharmaceutical module. Dialog One is a suite
of easy-to-use, “one-click” interfaces. A question-driven format allows
infrequent or novice searchers to easily target the information they need.
According to the company, Dialog One Pharmaceutical allows fast access
to Diogenes, Pharmaprojects, EMBASE, F-D-C Reports, and other pharmaceutical
sources. With Dialog One Pharmaceutical, users can discover what new drugs
their competitors have in development, follow regulatory information for
pharmaceuticals and medical devices, and uncover lucrative drug licensing
opportunities worldwide.
The Dialog One Pharmaceutical interface is divided into the following
sections:
Industry Intelligence allows users to search for Company Profiles, M&As,
and Industry News.
Pharma Patent Information includes forms to search by drug name, company,
patent number, patent expirations, and pending U.S. patent applications.
Research News utilizes PHIND and F-D-C Reports to give users breaking news
about drug-related research, without having to wait for eventual publication
of the report.
Journal Articles includes simple forms allowing users to search in key
industry publications like Scrip, Clinica, and The Pink Sheet.
Research Literature forms utilize Dialog’s powerful mapping capabilities.
For example, the Pharma interaction form allows users to track drug-interaction
literature from the respected clinical literature content available in
EMBASE and MEDLINE. Enter a drug name and the behind-the-scenes search
strategy takes that drug name and extracts synonyms from The Merck Index
and Pharmaprojects. Those synonyms are then launched in MEDLINE and EMBASE
where they pull up pertinent citations. According to the announcement,
users are then free from the cost and the effort required to execute this
complicated search.
Drug Pipeline summaries allows users to search for pipeline information
by Company Name, Drug Name, and Therapeutic indication. Regulatory Information
includes forms for Drug Approvals, Warning Letters, and New Legislation.
There’s no charge to access or search Dialog One. Dialog customers are
billed only for output according to the terms of their existing contract.
