Drugs from artificial teeth<\/strong>
(N\u00f2va 24: page 3, Les Echos online \u2013 February 22, 2007)
At Germany's Frauhofer Institute for Biomedical Engineering in St. Ingbert, scientists are studying drug-releasing artificial teeth. The scientists' goal is to create a technique that allows the continuous diffusion of medicines. Saliva enters a hole in the dental cavity and, coming into contact with the drug, dissolves part of it.

"Green light from the Ministry to the Plan against the deficit"
<\/strong>(Il Messaggero Rome: page 37 \u2013 22 February 2007)
It seems that the Ministry of Health has given its approval to the health part of the Lazio Health Deficit Recovery Plan. In fact, positive signals seem to be coming from the Ministry and AIFA, even if not yet official, with respect to the Region's proposal which plans to recover the 131 million euros to 'cover' the overrun in pharmaceutical spending through greater recourse to the direct distribution of more expensive medicines and at the reference price for medicines that protect the stomach.

\u201cHope for 'orphan' diseases\u201d
<\/strong>(N\u00f2va 24: page 4 \u2013 22 February 2007)
An example of 'open source' is the Tropical Disease Initiative (TDI, www.tropicaldisease.org<\/a>), a sort of 'laboratory site' where chemists and biologists can enter and share their knowledge on tropical pathologies. The promoters of TDI believe that 'the commercial and patent system of the West means that the pharmaceutical sector has no interest in developing treatments for these diseases'. In fact, the costs of developing drugs could not be quickly recovered. TDI's approach envisages the use of 'virtual pharmas', non-profit pharmaceutical companies supported by foundations and 'charities' who take on the task of producing the drug, which would be contracted out on the basis of the lowest cost. In this way the final price would be much reduced, as it is devoid of any claim to exclusivity and patent.
