An ethical advancement of scientific knowledge demands a delicate equilibrium between benefits and harms, in particular in health-related research. When applying and advancing scientific knowledge or technologies, Article 4 of UNESCO's Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights, ethically justifiable research requires maximizing direct and indirect benefits and minimizing possible harms. The National Institution of Health [NIH] Data Sharing Policy and Implementation Guidance similarly states that data necessary for drawing valid conclusions and advancing medical research should be made as widely and freely available as possible (in order to share the benefits) while safeguarding the privacy of participants from potentially harmful disclosure of sensitive information. This paper discusses the challenges in the maximization of research benefit and the minimization of potential harms in the unique context of health-related research in Big Data from multiple sources, which are differently protected by the law. Part I frames the ethical dilemma by discussing potential benefits and harms, showing the constant misalignment in health-related research in Big Data from multiple sources, between the benefits in the use of confidential information for scientific purposes and the value in keeping confidentiality. Part II addresses existing regulations, including their nature and legal coverage. It highlights the prevailing challenges when combining data from multiple sources that are differently protected by the law. Part III compares different requirements for consent or authorization to use persons' health information for research. It focuses on the difficulty of existing regulation to ensure those requirements when using multiple sources of data. Part IV investigates whether exemptions from the authorization requirement could prevail in the context of information that exceeds the protection of HIPAA and the Protection of Human Subjects Regulations. In Part V the paper proposes a solution of a statistical nature, using the method of synthetic data to balance conflicting considerations. Part VI shows how the use of synthetic data can overcome some of the ethical challenges.

科学知识的伦理进步要求在利益和危害之间取得微妙的平衡,特别是在与健康有关的研究中。教科文组织《世界生物伦理与人权宣言》第4条规定,在应用和推进科学知识或技术时,伦理上合理的研究要求最大限度地提高直接和间接效益,并尽量减少可能的危害。《美国国立卫生研究院数据共享政策和实施指南》同样指出,应尽可能广泛和免费地提供得出有效结论和推进医学研究所需的数据(以便分享利益),同时保护参与者的隐私,使其免受敏感信息泄露的潜在危害。本文讨论了在受不同法律保护的多来源健康相关大数据研究的独特背景下,研究利益最大化和潜在危害最小化所面临的挑战。第一部分通过讨论潜在的利益和危害来构建伦理困境,展示了在来自多个来源的与健康相关的大数据研究中,为科学目的使用机密信息的好处与保密的价值之间不断出现的错位。第二部分讨论现有的法规,包括它们的性质和法律范围。它强调了在合并受到不同法律保护的多个来源的数据时所面临的普遍挑战。第三部分比较了同意或授权将个人健康信息用于研究的不同要求。它侧重于现有法规在使用多个数据源时确保这些要求的困难。第四部分调查在信息超出HIPAA和人类受试者保护条例保护的情况下,授权要求的豁免是否可以占上风。在第五部分,本文提出了一个统计性质的解决方案,使用综合数据的方法来平衡冲突的考虑。第六部分展示了如何使用合成数据来克服一些伦理挑战。

A Leap to Hybrid Governance for European Union Healthcare on Organ Donations. 欧盟医疗机构对器官捐赠的混合治理的飞跃。
Pub Date : 2018-01-01
Tasnim Ahmed

This article evaluates two proposals that the Organs Directive along with the commission's Action Plan 2009-2015 can be viewed as a form of hybrid governance. The Organs Directive is the first legally-binding supranational risk regulation devised in the field of organ donation and transplantation. The Directive is modelled on the earlier Directive dealing with blood, tissue, and cells. The Action Plan, which is soft law, will complement the Directive. The Directive and Action Plan requires additional administration procedures from the Member States with the EU Commission regularly monitoring the implementation of the work programme to ensure it is manageable for them. Before probing the Directive, the Impact Assessment (IA) undertaken by the EU Commission on organ donations, which is used to determine the rationale behind the adoption of the stringent Directive with the Action Plan, will be examined. The social, economic, and health impacts of the four regulatory options available to the Commission will be considered. The Directive and the Action Plan, which are finally adopted, will be discussed in detail, before the arguments are placed highlighting the fact that the Directive and Action Plan display a mode of hybrid governance. Next, the advantages and disadvantages of hybrid governance are laid out and conclusions are drawn as to whether the hybrid model was the best form of action in EU healthcare. In the conclusion, the article proposes the emergence of an "integrated model" within the Organs Directive, which is based on the fusion of the three governance structures: the OMC, comitology, and agencies.

本文评估了《机关指令》和欧盟委员会《2009-2015年行动计划》可被视为混合治理形式的两项建议。《器官指令》是在器官捐赠和移植领域制定的第一个具有法律约束力的超国家风险监管条例。该指令以先前处理血液、组织和细胞的指令为蓝本。行动计划是软法律,将补充该指令。该指令和行动计划要求成员国制定额外的管理程序,欧盟委员会定期监测工作方案的执行情况,以确保其可管理。在探讨该指令之前,将审查欧盟委员会对器官捐赠进行的影响评估(IA),该评估用于确定采用严格指令和行动计划背后的理由。委员会将审议现有的四种管制选择的社会、经济和健康影响。指令和行动计划,最终通过,将被详细讨论,之前的论点是强调这一事实,指令和行动计划显示混合治理模式。接下来,混合治理的优点和缺点被列出,并得出结论,是否混合模式是最好的行动形式在欧盟医疗保健。在结论部分,文章建议在机构指令中出现一个“综合模式”,该模式基于三个治理结构的融合:管理委员会、委员会和机构。

This Note begins with a discussion of both the national opioid problem as well as the specific epidemic in Ohio as an example of how it has grown within all of the states. Part II discusses the differences between prescription opioids and opiates, how they can be obtained, what effects they have on the human body, and why the government has an interest in this growing problem. Next, this Note explains how and why there was an increase in access and addiction to prescription opioid pain medication. Following this explanation, the steps the government has taken to try to rectify the issue are explained. Part II then explores more details about the problem of heroin use--explaining what the drug is, what an overdose looks like, and how fentanyl-laced heroin is contributing to the problem. Similar to the pain medication description, there is a discussion on steps the government has taken thus far to combat the opiate issue. Finally, Part II introduces a United States Supreme Court case, National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius. In Part III, there is an in-depth analysis of why the state government solutions for dealing with the opioid epidemic have not worked thus far. This Note argues that, because even the strides that states like Ohio have taken have not solved the problem, Congress should mandate that all rehabilitation facilities accept health insurance and that all health insurance companies cover the cost of rehabilitation for opiate and opioid addiction. Analysis of the Commerce Clause, the Necessary and Proper Clause, and the Taxing Clause show that Congress has the authority to make such demands.

本说明首先讨论了全国阿片类药物问题以及俄亥俄州的具体流行病,作为它如何在所有州内发展的一个例子。第二部分讨论了处方阿片类药物和阿片类药物之间的区别,如何获得它们,它们对人体有什么影响,以及为什么政府对这个日益严重的问题感兴趣。接下来,本说明解释了处方阿片类止痛药的获取和成瘾增加的方式和原因。在此解释之后,解释了政府为纠正这一问题所采取的步骤。第二部分探讨了更多关于海洛因使用问题的细节——解释毒品是什么,过量是什么样子,以及芬太尼海洛因是如何导致这个问题的。与止痛药的描述类似,讨论了政府迄今为止采取的打击鸦片问题的步骤。最后,第二部分介绍了美国最高法院的一个案例,全国独立企业联合会诉西贝利厄斯案。在第三部分中,深入分析了州政府处理阿片类药物流行病的解决方案迄今尚未奏效的原因。本说明认为,由于即使像俄亥俄州这样的州已经取得了长足的进步,也没有解决问题,国会应该强制要求所有康复机构接受健康保险,所有健康保险公司承担阿片类药物和阿片类药物成瘾的康复费用。对《商业条款》、《必要和适当条款》和《征税条款》的分析表明,国会有权提出上述要求。

Supporting Mothers with Mental Illness: Postpartum Mental Health Service Linkage as a Matter of Public Health and Child Welfare Policy. 支持患有精神疾病的母亲:作为公共卫生和儿童福利政策事项的产后心理健康服务联系。

Jesse Krohn, Meredith Matone

Through our work in youth advocacy as, respectively, legal and public health professionals, we are all too aware of the high levels of health care fragmentation experienced during pregnancy and postpartum by poor, young mothers of color. Meredith Matone's research highlights the heightened risk of fragmentation for girls with histories of child welfare involvement. For example, she found that 66.7% of young mothers who had resided in out-of-home placements and who had taken antipsychotic medication prior to becoming pregnant failed to fill prescriptions for antipsychotics in their first postpartum year. Put another way, two-thirds of these vulnerable young mothers--a far higher proportion than young mothers without histories of child welfare involvement--were not getting the treatment that they needed to care for themselves and their children. The very real consequences of this phenomenon can be seen in the experiences of Jesse Krohn's clients, several of whom have their stories told here. Treatment discontinuity, particularly during the transition to parenthood, places mothers at risk for poor health outcomes and maladaptive parenting approaches; threatens the health and safety of infants; and triggers child welfare involvement. This article explores the negative consequences and root causes of treatment discontinuity, as well as particularized population vulnerabilities for treatment discontinuity including, as noted, involvement with child welfare. It will also provide public health and child welfare policy solutions for reducing treatment discontinuity and improving mental and physical health outcomes for new mothers and infants. The population of mothers at highest risk for postpartum treatment gaps is not small: more than 40% of Medicaid-financed births to young women aged 15 to 24 occurred in mothers who had a childhood relationship to the child welfare system. It is unacceptable to be aware of the pervasiveness of this problem, particularly among intersectionally vulnerable women, and not deploy a targeted and evidence-based preventative and remedial response.

通过我们分别作为法律和公共卫生专业人员在青年宣传方面的工作,我们都非常清楚有色人种的贫穷年轻母亲在怀孕和产后所经历的医疗保健高度分散。梅雷迪思·马通的研究强调了有儿童福利史的女孩分裂的风险增加。例如,她发现66.7%的年轻母亲在怀孕前接受过家庭外安置和抗精神病药物治疗,但在产后的第一年没有按照处方服用抗精神病药物。换句话说,这些脆弱的年轻母亲中有三分之二——比没有儿童福利史的年轻母亲的比例要高得多——没有得到照顾自己和孩子所需的治疗。这种现象的真实后果可以从杰西·克罗恩客户的经历中看到,他们中的一些人在这里讲述了他们的故事。治疗中断,特别是在过渡到为人父母期间,使母亲面临健康状况不佳和养育方式不适应的风险;威胁婴儿的健康和安全;并引发儿童福利的介入。本文探讨了治疗不连续性的负面后果和根本原因,以及治疗不连续性的特定人群脆弱性,如前所述,包括涉及儿童福利。它还将提供公共卫生和儿童福利政策解决办法,以减少治疗中断,改善新生儿母亲和婴儿的身心健康结果。产后治疗缺口风险最高的母亲群体并不少:在15至24岁的年轻女性中,有超过40%的医疗补助资助的分娩发生在与儿童福利系统有童年关系的母亲身上。意识到这一问题的普遍性,特别是在交叉弱势妇女中,而不采取有针对性和基于证据的预防和补救措施,这是不可接受的。

Analysis of the Proposed TPP-Related Patent Linkage System in Taiwan. 台湾tpp相关专利联动制度之建议分析。
Pub Date : 2017-01-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3290083
Ping-hsun Chen
The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Agreement mandates member states to implement a patent linkage system vested in Article 18.53. To successfully join the TPP Agreement, Taiwan has begun the legislation of a patent linkage system by proposing an amendment for the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act. Article 18.53 requires a member either to adopt a notification mechanism under Paragraph 1 or to stay the issuance of marketing approval under Paragraph 2. But, Taiwan's proposal includes both measures. Taiwan's patent linkage system allows a pioneer drug company to register patents claiming (a) a material, (b) a combination or formula, or (c) pharmaceutical use. The scope of patentees who may benefit from the mechanism is larger than what is required. In addition, the system requires a generic drug company to notify the patentee at the time of filing the drug application if the generic drug company asserts invalidity or non-infringement which the generic drug company must prove. Furthermore, the health authority is allowed to stay the issuance of a generic drug permit while the patentee is suing the generic drug company in the court.
跨太平洋伙伴关系协定(TPP)要求成员国实施第18.53条规定的专利联系制度。为成功加入TPP,台湾已开始立法专利联动制度,提出药事法修正案。第18.53条要求成员要么采用第1款规定的通知机制,要么停止第2款规定的上市批准的发放。但是,台湾的提议包括这两项措施。台湾的专利联动系统允许先驱制药公司注册要求(a)材料,(b)组合或配方,或(c)药物用途的专利。可能从该机制中受益的专利权人的范围比所要求的要大。此外,该系统要求仿制药公司在提交药品申请时通知专利权人,如果仿制药公司声称无效或非侵权,仿制药公司必须证明。此外,在专利权人向法院起诉仿制药公司期间,保健当局可以暂停发放仿制药许可证。

The National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Standard (the 'National Standard') was signed into law July 29, 2016. This Article analyzes the National Standard and posits that Vermont's Act 120 was a more effective labeling law because it safeguarded consumer sovereignty. The State regulatory scheme in place prior to the passage of the National Standard satisfied consumer demand for disclosure while allowing for necessary experimentation with GMO labeling. Part I provides an overview of the current federal scheme regulating GMOs. Part II analyzes of the conflict surrounding GMOs and labeling. Given that analysis, Part III compares the disclosure requirement of the National Standard with the requirements of Vermont's Act 120 and concludes that Vermont's labeling law offered a better safeguard for consumer sovereignty because it included a larger range of products and required a label that immediately relayed disclosures to consumers.

《国家生物工程食品披露标准》(以下简称“国家标准”)于2016年7月29日签署成为法律。本文分析了国家标准,并认为佛蒙特州第120号法案是一个更有效的标签法,因为它保护了消费者的主权。在国家标准通过之前的国家监管计划满足了消费者对信息披露的要求,同时允许对转基因生物标签进行必要的实验。第一部分概述了目前监管转基因生物的联邦计划。第二部分分析了围绕转基因生物与标签的冲突。基于上述分析,第三部分将国家标准的披露要求与佛蒙特州第120号法案的要求进行了比较,并得出结论认为,佛蒙特州的标签法为消费者主权提供了更好的保障,因为它包括更大范围的产品,并要求标签立即向消费者传达披露信息。

On December 18, 2015, President Obama signed into law a policy rider forestalling the therapeutic modification of the human germ line. The rider, motivated by the science's potential unethical ends, is only the most recent instance in which the legislature cut short the ongoing national conversation on the acceptability of a developing science. This essay offers historical perspective on what bills were proposed and passed surrounding four other then-developing scientific breakthroughs--Recombinant DNA, in vitro fertilization, Cloning, Stem Cells--to better analyze how Congress is, and should, regulate this exciting and promising science.

2015年12月18日,奥巴马总统签署了一项政策附加条款,阻止对人类生殖系进行治疗性修改。这一附加条款的动机是科学潜在的不道德目的,这只是立法机构中断正在进行的关于一门发展中的科学的可接受性的全国性对话的最新例子。本文从历史的角度分析了围绕重组DNA、体外受精、克隆、干细胞这四项当时正在发展的科学突破提出和通过的法案,以更好地分析国会是如何、应该如何监管这一令人兴奋和有前途的科学。

Circling the Drain: Regulating Nutrient Pollution from Agricultural Sources. 循环排水渠:调节农业来源的营养污染。
Pub Date : 2017-01-01
William Gutermuth

The 2014 Toledo, Ohio tap water ban has, at least temporarily, put a spotlight on United States water supplies. Consequently, many Americans have begun to take a closer look at the quality of the fresh water bodies being used to supply tap water to their homes. Therefore, this Note analyzes the problems currently threatening the lakes, rivers, and other surface waters that are the source of fresh drinking water for huge populations in the United States. Part II examines the problem of nutrient pollution and explains the harmful effects it has on human health. Part III provides an overview of the current laws governing nutrient pollution and tap water quality. Part IV analyzes the source of the problem and demonstrates that agriculture is largely responsible. Lastly, Part V suggests that the problem of nutrient pollution can be resolved through a reinterpretation of the Clean Water Act's definition of a point source.

2014年俄亥俄州托莱多市颁布的自来水禁令,至少暂时让美国的供水成为人们关注的焦点。因此,许多美国人开始更密切地关注为他们家庭提供自来水的淡水的质量。因此,本文分析了目前威胁湖泊、河流和其他地表水的问题,这些水是美国大量人口的新鲜饮用水来源。第二部分探讨了营养物污染问题,并解释了营养物污染对人体健康的有害影响。第三部分概述了管理营养物污染和自来水质量的现行法律。第四部分分析了问题的根源,并论证了农业的主要责任。最后,第五部分建议,营养物污染问题可以通过重新解释《清洁水法》对点源的定义来解决。
