Methods: Using interrupted time series analysis, we examined trends in student success, research…
Knowledge needs of research ethics committees for the integration of ethics in research and technology development
One well-established way of integrating ethics into the development of emerging technologies is the ethics review process which originated in biomedical research. This relies on an ex-ante review of research proposals through institutional bodies, usually known as research ethics committees (RECs). RECs are typically highly skilled in biomedical research questions and methodologies but are often less well equipped to deal with other types of rese…
Is Europe ready for xenotransplantation
This comment addresses recent advancements in xenotransplantation research, which suggest that new types of transplants could become possible soon. It argues that the ethical concerns surrounding xenotransplantation in humans are particularly complex. These concerns go beyond the traditional medical ethics of informed consent and patient care, or balancing patient risks against benefits. The potential risk of xenosis—diseases transmitted from ani…
Virt 2 Ue
Universities and other research institutions are increasingly providing additional training in research integrity to improve the quality and reliability of research. Various training courses have been developed, with diverse learning goals and content. Despite the importance of training that focuses on moral character and professional virtues, there remains a lack of training that adopts a virtue ethics approach. To address this, we, a European C…
Research misconduct as a challenge for academic institutions and scientific journals
Research misconduct refers to a set of unethical practices in research and publication and is the main reason for retraction of articles published in the academic literature. Research misconduct has negative consequences and has generated public scepticism about research, which has led to increasing distrust in science. In this context, a joint effort by the scientific community, academic institutions, scientific journals and research funders is …

Background: During health emergencies, leading healthcare organisations, such as the World Health Organization (WHO), the European Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (ECDC), and the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), provide guidance for public health response. Previous studies have evaluated clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) produced in response to epidemics or pandemics, yet few have focused on public healt…
JoGH policy on the use of artificial intelligence in scholarly manuscripts
We witness the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in science, and the recent release of the ChatGPT chatbot has brought generative AI into publishing. A chatbot is defined as “a computer program that simulates and processes human conversation (either written or spoken), allowing humans to interact with digital devices as if they were communicating [...]
Student Moral Foundations in the Context of Research Misbehavior
The study aimed to examine whether the use of words related to different moral foundations can predict the perceived severity of research misconduct. We gave two groups of participants, undergraduate medical students, the same hypothetical scenarios of research misconduct cases containing words related to different aspects of morality, and asked them to assess how inappropriate the described behavior was. Students ranked the described behaviors d…
Stakeholders’ Experiences of Research Integrity Support in Universities
Fostering research integrity (RI) increasingly focuses on normative guidance and supportive measures within institutions. To be successful, the implementation of support should be informed by stakeholders’ experiences of RI support.

Research priorities to reduce the impact of Covid-19 in low- and middle-income countries
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused disruptions to the functioning of societies and their health systems. Prior to the pandemic, health systems in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) were particularly stretched and vulnerable. The International Society of Global Health (ISoGH) sought to systematically identify priorities for health research that would have the potential to reduce the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in LMICs. Methods:…
Factors Associated with the Quality and Transparency of National Guidelines
We assessed the methodological quality and transparency of all the national clinical practice guidelines that were published in Croatia up until 2017 and explored the factors associated with their quality rating. An in-depth quantitative and qualitative analysis was performed using rigorous methodology. We evaluated the guidelines using a validated AGREE II instrument with four raters; we used multiple linear regressions to identify the predictor…
Strengthening research integrity
The widespread problems with scientific fraud, questionable research practices, and the reliability of scientific results have led to an increased focus on research integrity (RI). International organisations and networks have been established, declarations have been issued, and codes of conducts have been formed. The abstract principles of these documents are now also being translated into concrete topic areas that Research Performing organisati…
Practices for Research Integrity Promotion in Research Performing Organisations and Research Funding Organisations
Research integrity (RI) is a continuously developing concept, and increasing emphasis is put on creating RI promotion practices. This study aimed to map the existing RI guidance documents at research performing organisations (RPOs) and research funding organisations (RFOs). A search of bibliographic databases and grey literature sources was performed, and retrieved documents were screened for eligibility. The search of bibliographical databases a…

A Systematic Review of Research on the Meaning, Ethics and Practices of Authorship across Scholarly Disciplines
Balancing investments in existing and emerging approaches to address global health priorities
One of the common themes in contemporary global health is finding an optimal balance between investments in existing and emerging approaches to fight global health priorities. Existing interventions have been proven to be effective, but they usually have limitations. Emerging interventions could potentially bring greater gains at a lower cost, but health gains are usually uncertain and take much more time to achieve. There are no simple solutions…
Reducing mortality from childhood pneumonia and diarrhoea
Pneumonia and diarrhoea have been the leading causes of global child mortality for many decades. The work of Child Health Epidemiology Reference Group (CHERG) has been pivotal in raising awareness that the UN's Millennium Development Goal 4 cannot be achieved without increased focus on preventing and treating the two diseases in low- and middle-income countries. Global Action Plan for Pneumonia (GAPP) and Diarrhoea Global Action Plan (DGAP) group…
Global visibility for global health
Despite a large body of research in global health (almost 9000 articles published in PubMed until 2012), the term “global health” is not included in the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) of the NLM – its controlled vocabulary thesaurus which NLM uses to index articles in MEDL INE. There are only 6 journals currently covered by PubMed which specialize in global health, including Journal of Global Health
MHealth series
The use of mobile devices in healthcare, or mHealth, has the potential to play an important role in low- and middle-income countries in a wide range of areas. A particular area with great potential to improve global health is using mHealth for data collection. We propose three ideas: (i) to validate and conduct household surveys, (ii) to monitor large-scale programs, and (iii) to measure the global burden of disease. We need to know more about mH…
The first three years of the Journal of Global Health
The Journal of Global Health (JoGH) is three years old. To assess its impact, we analysed online access to JoGH's articles using PubMed Central and Google Analytics tools. Moreover, we tracked citations that JoGH received in 2013 using ISI Web of Knowledge(SM) and Google Scholar® tools. The 66 items (articles, viewpoints and editorials) published between June 2011 and December 2013 were accessed more than 50 000 times during 2013, from more than …
