Currently AIHA supports 3 centers in Africa and 9 in Russia. Several similar centers in the countries of the FSU were opened without any financial support from AIHA. LRC Network of graduated LRCs includes 60 participants from 19 countries (list of all members at http://lrcnetwork.org/en/views/lrcnml). LRC mailing list (lrcnetwork@googlegroups.com) includes 350 subscribers. 20 respondents from 12 countries participated in this survey.

The International Journal of Medical Practice (Международный журнал медицинской практики) has been the first Russia's journal giving a EBP-based account of the latest achievements in the world's medical science. The journal was published in 1996 through 2002. Since its revival in 2005, the IJMP has been also focused on various aspects of the modern research methodology in medicine. AIHA will provide most active members of the LRC Network with a CD containing the full IJMP archive for 1996 through 2005. To receive your IJMP CD, please contact your regional ICT coordinator, or Victor Stanilevskiy (vstanilevskiy@aiha.com).
