[Purpose and usefulness of the present day risk catalog (author's transl)].

Risk catalogs have proved to be an important instrument of preventive medicine for the identification of pregnancies at risk. Their purpose and usefulness is beyond all doubt. Nevertheless problems of principle are attached to them since they deflect the attention from the living reality of the individual case to statistically formed collectives. The importance of the problems for risk catalogs changes according to the social change and the constantly improved perinatal results. Age, parity and socioeconomic risks reflect such trends in development most clearly. Future tasks lie in the quantification of risks by differentiating the degrees of severity. A certain intrinsic dynamism of the present risk catalogs leads, e. g. to a constantly increasing incidence of sections. For this reason a constant feedback must exist between risk catalog and statistics.

The cell line data base and the new catalogue: detailed information on 2650 human and animal cell lines.

The Cell Line Data Base (CLDB), set up within the Interlab Project, is a relational database containing data on 2650 human and animal cell lines which are available in labs and cell banks all over Europe. The second edition of the catalogue, directly generated from the database, has been produced, and will be published in the first months of 1993. Furthermore, the electronic catalogue is available for IBM-compatible personal computers and the version for MacIntosh is under preparation.

Problems in distribution of scientific knowledge: intrauterine contraceptive devices and drug catalogs.

Intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUDs) are a popular method of contraception worldwide. However, some serious problems have been associated with them. Finland has developed and now manufactures and exports IUDs. Therefore, drug control and the quality of drug information existing in Finland are significant for other countries, as well. This study analyzes the information in the Finnish commercial drug catalog on copper-releasing IUDs and compares it with the scientific literature, the instructions from the licensing authority, and material in its U.S. counterpart, during the last two decades. The results indicate that the distribution of scientific knowledge to the drug catalogs has often been slow. In the early 1980s Finnish manufacturers did not give any practical information on their products, and then and later the Finnish catalog was less comprehensive than the U.S. catalog. The variations in the control system in different nations were reflected in the contents of the Finnish catalog. For practitioners, drug catalogs are important sources of medical information. The results of this study demonstrate (1) that more attention should be paid to the contents of these catalogs, and (2) the continuous need for up-to-date, unbiased drug information.
