Protection of human subjects in intervention research for suicidal behavior.
OBJECTIVE Three domains of ethical conduct outlined in the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's 1998 Belmont Report on protection of human research subjects-respect for persons, beneficence, and justice-have posed specific dilemmas in the design of intervention studies for suicidal behavior. These issues include questions about suicidal patients' capacity to provide informed consent, the risk of...
متن کاملRethinking risks to human subjects in genetic research.
Although the concern of biomedical researchers for the well-being of human subjects is as old as research itself, the modern era has a well-defined beginning. The horrors conducted by the Nazi doctors under the name of research led directly to the drafting in 1946 of the Nuremberg Code (1949; Annas and Grodin 1992). Only 500 words long, the document holds a hallowed place in western culture. No...
متن کاملMetabolic and Genetic Screening of Electromagnetic Hypersensitive Subjects as a Feasible Tool for Diagnostics and Intervention
Growing numbers of "electromagnetic hypersensitive" (EHS) people worldwide self-report severely disabling, multiorgan, non-specific symptoms when exposed to low-dose electromagnetic radiations, often associated with symptoms of multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) and/or other environmental "sensitivity-related illnesses" (SRI). This cluster of chronic inflammatory disorders still lacks validate...
متن کاملStem Cells Application in Modeling of Human Genetic Diseases
The use of animal models in modeling of human genetic disease has many advantages. In some cases, however, this method may not be applicable due to some limitations, such as differences in tissue composition, anatomy and physiology of humans and animals. Isogenic human disease models are a population of cells that are selected or engineered to model a specific genetic disease, in vitro. They ar...
متن کاملThe assessment of vascular function during dietary intervention trials in human subjects.
The potential to reduce cardiovascular morbidity through dietary modification remains an area of intense clinical and scientific interest. Any putatively beneficial intervention should be tested within a randomised controlled trial which records appropriate endpoints, ideally incident CVD and death. However, the large sample sizes required for these endpoints and associated high costs mean that...
