title: [Therapeutic information: how to transmit current scientific data. Group VALIDATA].
abstract: The information on therapeutics is moving at a high path for various causes. Now, tools for informing correctly the prescriber do exist. However, they require the operation of suitable structures. The mainstem of the system consists of an intermediary which should comply with appropriate rules. It will work from an exhaustive collection of pertinent information. This will allowed by the extensive use of literature data banks and clinical trial registries kept with the help of international collaboration. It will rank the strength of evidence of the collected data according to their internal validity. It will elaborate overviews from validated data obtained from meta-analysis, and messages readily readable by the users, and accessible whenever needed. Overviews will be used to set up guidelines, references, editorials... Data banks will be accessible to researchers, teachers, officers concerned by health care.
