Just Published aims to help clinicians keep abreast of the latest and most important clinical information in their field by providing the full text of key research articles recently published in The Lancet, and weekly summaries of research in other top journals. To ensure full independence and impartiality of Just Published and delivery of the most relevant information, articles from other top journals will be identified and selected on the basis of elements such as journal impact factors, author citations, and article downloads.
“With the enormous variety of medical content now available online, never has it been more important for healthcare professionals to have timely access to trustworthy and unbiased health information. We are delighted to be partnering with The Lancet to further enhance the univadis® website bringing comprehensive independent medical information to physicians worldwide. Providing high quality services to physicians, such as univadis®, and ultimately improving patient outcomes is a core part of our corporate strategy, dating back to the first published Merck Manual more than 100 years ago,” said Fabrice Valay, head of univadis® at MSD.
Abstracts of articles from The Lancet and summaries of articles from other journals will initially be offered in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, and Japanese to serve the dozens of countries around the world in which univadis® is available.
