The dramatic increase in the number of cases and deaths from AIDS since 1981 has been accompanied by an information explosion on the topic. The government, health professionals, service organizations, consumers, and the media are each vital links in both formal and informal AIDS information networks. New information sources and systems have emerged from these five sectors, and their roles as information creators, seekers, and providers have come together. The need for integrative or synthesizing databases and systems which reflect the sectors' interdependence and acknowledge their roles in the information process is discussed. Databases and systems which reflect a multi-sector approach, such as the Computerized AIDS Information Network (CAIN), are suggested as potential solutions to the AIDS information problem.
自1981年以来，艾滋病病例和死亡人数急剧增加，与此同时，关于该主题的信息也呈爆炸式增长。政府、卫生专业人员、服务组织、消费者和媒体都是正式和非正式艾滋病信息网络中的重要环节。这五个部门涌现出了新的信息来源和系统，它们作为信息创造者、寻求者和提供者的角色也汇聚在了一起。本文讨论了对整合或综合数据库及系统的需求，这些数据库和系统应反映各部门的相互依存关系，并认可它们在信息过程中的作用。建议采用反映多部门方法的数据库和系统，如计算机化艾滋病信息网络（CAIN），作为解决艾滋病信息问题的潜在方案。
