Dear colleagues,

The specialists of Scientific Library of Kharkov State medical University have created problem-oriented bibliographic database on urgent problems of Alzheimer's disease. The database contains priority information (1993 - 2002) and covers about 500 documents. Special attention has been paid to modern approaches to treatment (mainly drug therapy), evaluation of the drug efficacy, possibilities of their application in medical practice.

Analytico-synthetical approach to information sources allowed to accept the hypothesis about expediency of anti-amyloid preparations, first of all, at early stages in possible and probable Alzheimer's disease when the changes in the brain are not considerable and are reversible and senile cataract.

According to Kharkov scientists, unithiol, is one of this group.

If you are interested in our work, please, answer our questionnaire below and, if possible, spread our information between the specialists. If you have questions about unithiol administration, we will answer them and send you the instructions. Our project is non-profit, we hope that you will pay attention to it and give it an objective evaluation.
