  1. What research with stored Samples teaches us about research with human subjects.David Wendler - 2002 - Bioethics 16 (1):33–54.
    There is widespread discussion concerning the safeguards appropriate for human research subjects. Less discussed is the fact that the safeguards one deems appropriate depend, in large part, on the model of research participation that one assumes. Therefore, to determine what safeguards are appropriate, it is necessary first to clarify the competing models of research participation. The ostensibly obscure debate over informed consent for research on stored biological samples is of particular interest in this regard because such research can involve varying (...)

  • (1 other version)The ethics of anonymised HIV testing of pregnant women: a reappraisal.Paquita de Zulueta - 2000 - Journal of Medical Ethics 26 (1):25-26.
    “Anonymised screening is a research tool to inform policy and practice and individual decision making, but is not a tool to identify those at risk that could directly benefit from intervention.”1The assumption that the information acquired will be used to prioritise health care resources may prove false. A government, after weighing up the costs and benefits, may choose not to adopt appropriate interventions. Or, even if a policy is proposed,, it may not be adhered to. Even as I write, antenatal (...)

  • Confessions of a Medicine Man: an Essay in Popular Philosophy: Alfred I Tauber, Cambridge, Mass, The MIT Press, 1999, 159 + xviii pages, pound17.50 (hb). [REVIEW]Matthew Clayton - 2000 - Journal of Medical Ethics 26 (6):482-a-483.
    Tauber's book outlines a philosophy of medicine that sees an ethos of caring as the central imperative of a doctor. Three broad claims are defended in the text. First, Tauber is sceptical of conceptions of medicine that treat physicians as primarily scientists or the agents of profit-makers or administrators. For such conceptions fail to consider the patient as a whole or his/her personalised suffering as demanding empathy. Second, he criticises conceptions of medical ethics that emphasise personal autonomy. After a brief (...)

  • Regulating Human Body Parts and Products.Jean McHale - 2000 - Health Care Analysis 8 (2):83-85.
    This special volume of Health Care Analysis is dedicated to a consideration of the status of body parts and products and the roleof law in regulating them. We argue that such a discussion is timely giventhe conflation of technological and academic concerns posed by thecomplex legal framework within which these issues are currentlyaddressed and in the light of debates such as those regardingthe storage of children's organs addressed by inquiries atAlder Hay and Bristol, United Kingdom. The contributors addressspecific legal problems (...)

  • Stored human tissue: an ethical perspective on the fate of anonymous, archival material.D. G. Jones - 2003 - Journal of Medical Ethics 29 (6):343-347.
    The furore over the retention of organs at postmortem examination, without adequate consent, has led to a reassessment of the justification for, and circumstances surrounding, the retention of any human material after postmortem examinations and operations. This brings into focus the large amount of human material stored in various archives and museums, much of which is not identifiable and was accumulated many years ago, under unknown circumstances. Such anonymous archival material could be disposed of, used for teaching, used for research, (...)

  • Institute of Medical Ethics: working party report. HIV infection: the ethics of anonymised testing and of testing pregnant women.Kenneth M. Boyd - 1990 - Journal of Medical Ethics 16 (4):173-178.
    An Institute of Medical Ethics working party supports the view that explicit permission should normally be sought in the case of testing for HIV antibody. It discusses this in relation to anonymised HIV testing for epidemiological purposes, concluding that this is to be welcomed, given certain safeguards. It next argues that pregnant women may have a greater and more immediate need than others to know their HIV status. It concludes that this need does not justify testing them without their permission, (...)
