Bright‐Line Policy and the Future of the Fourteen‐Day Rule
As global science leaders revisit the fourteen‐day rule for human embryo research, this commentary explores why its clarity, stability, and the public trust it has fostered have made it a notable success in science policy—and why any change must be approached with care
Comparison of early risk factors between healthy siblings and subjects with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder
These findings highlight the different risk factor exposures that occur within a family, which may increase the risk for severe mental illness
The Oxford Handbook of Public Health Ethics
Public health is fundamentally concerned with promoting the health of populations through the prevention of disease and injury. It is, at its core, a moral endeavor, because the end it seeks is the advancement of human well-being. Vexing ethics issues are inherent in all aspects of public health practice and policy. They exist in top-of-the-news stories like infectious disease outbreaks and vaccine hesitancy, health disparities, and in more routi…

Angst: Origins of Anxiety and Depression
Why do so many people suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous angst? Some twenty percent of us are afflicted with common Anxiety and Depressive disorders. That's not just nervous or scared or sad - that is painful dysfunction without obvious benefit. This angst comes from an evolutionary inheritance that biologically shaped us into social communities. There are just five specific diagnostic subtypes that account for most of this modern-day ang…
The Implications of Public Health for Bioethics
At its core, public health introduces tensions between individuals' autonomy and the need to account for the perspectives and needs of communities and populations. It further raises social justice issues, including fair allocation of limited resources. This article examines and elaborates on these tensions and their resolutions using specific public health examples. Experiences in the 1980s and 1990s with HIV/AIDS provide a particularly rich coll…
Bioethics Consultation in the Private Sector
Bioethics consultation is flourishing in the private sector. The corporate clients are aware that their work raises substantive ethical issues, and often they are concerned about how their response to these issues may affect their public image and their financial standing. Many are prepared to compensate ethics consultants at substantial rates. This is a new phenomenon for the field of bioethics. Traditionally, most requests for comment and analy…
Bioethics Matures: The Field Faces the Future
Modern bioethics is now approaching the forty-year mark, and bioethics centers and programs have proliferated in universities around the country. Yet as these programs are becoming more established, seeking to tenure their faculty, to graduate students, and to secure their funding, a set of questions and concerns is arising that all of them share. Has the field of bioethics matured to the point that centers and programs should become academic dep…
The Task Force Responds
Baruch Brody, Nancy Dubler, Jeff Blustein, Arthur Caplan, Jeffrey P. Kahn, Nancy Kass, Bernard Lo, Jonathan Moreno, Jeremy Sugarman, Laurie Zoloth, The Task Force Responds, The Hastings Center Report, Vol. 32, No. 3 (May - Jun., 2002), pp. 22-23
Conception to Obtain Hematopoietic Stem Cells
A couple may have a child to provide stem cells for another child. They may also use preimplantation testing--even, troubling though it is, prenatal testing and selective abortion--to ensure a close tissue match
Risk and Responsibility: Ethics, Grimes v Kennedy Krieger , and Public Health Research Involving Children
The legal case of Grimes v. Kennedy Krieger Institute, Inc, has raised concerns in the public health research community regarding the acceptable level of risk in research involving children, parental authority for informed consent, and exploitation of research subjects for the benefit of public health. We provide an overview of the case and discuss the impact of the court's decision and its possible effect on future research protection policies a…

Type A Behavior and Blood Pressure During General Surgery
The Type A behavior pattern (TABP) has been demonstrated as a risk factor for the development of coronary heart disease (CHD). Psychophysiologic studies suggest that the TABP may be associated with autonomic hyperreactivity to a variety of stressors. Recent studies report an association of TABP with autonomic hyperreactivity in patients under general anesthesia for coronary artery bypass surgery. The present study did not find a significant corre…
Type A Behavior and the Thallium Stress Test
Several recent studies have examined the association between Type A personality and coronary artery disease (CAD) by coronary angiography. Most of these studies have reported a significant association. The present study is an attempt at further confirmation, using a new non-invasive technique for measuring CAD. Subjects were 53 patients undergoing routine exercise stress tests with concomitant thallium-201 myocardial perfusion studies. Five aspec…
Type A Behavior and Blood Pressure during Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery
Systemic hypertension has been reported as common during coronary artery bypass surgery. The coronary-prone Type A behavior pattern has been associated with heightened reactivity of the sympathetic nervous system. Therefore, the possible relationships between the two was explored. Significant correlations were found between systolic blood pressure rise during surgery and interview ratings of overall Type A (p < 0.05), aggressive content (p < 0.01…
