Good Scientific Practice and Ethics in Sports and Exercise Scence: A brief and comprehensive hands-on appraisal for Sports Research.
Arora NK, Roehrken G, Crumbach S, et al. Good Scientific Practice and Ethics in Sports and Exercise Scence: A brief and comprehensive hands-on appraisal for Sports Research. . Sports. 2023;11(2):13 Seiten.Sports and exercise training research is constantly evolving to maintain, improve, or regain
psychophysical, social, and emotional performance. Exercise training research requires a balance
between the benefits and the potential risks. There is an inherent risk of scientific misconduct
and adverse events in most sports; however, there is a need to minimize it. We aim to provide a
comprehensive overview of the clinical and ethical challenges in sports and exercise research. We
also enlist solutions to improve method design in clinical trials and provide checklists to minimize
the chances of scientific misconduct. At the outset, historical milestones of exercise science literature
are summarized. It is followed by details about the currently available regulations that help to
reduce the risk of violating good scientific practices. We also outline the unique characteristics of
sports-related research with a narrative of the major differences between sports and drug-based trials.
An emphasis is then placed on the importance of well-designed studies to improve the interpretability
of results and generalizability of the findings. This review finally suggests that sports researchers
should comply with the available guidelines to improve the planning and conduct of future research
thereby reducing the risk of harm to research participants. The authors suggest creating an oath to
prevent malpractice, thereby improving the knowledge standards in sports research. This will also
aid in deriving more meaningful implications for future research based on high-quality, ethically
sound evidence
The influence of the donor–recipient relationship on related donor reactions to stem cell donation
The core of sibling stem cell donation-A grounded theory study
Background: There is a lack of theoretical framework supporting stem cell transplant nurses in their assessment, judgment and caring interventions of sibling stem cell donors. Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore sibling stem cell donors’ main concerns and how they deal with them before and after donation. Method: Ten healthy sibling donors, 5 men and 5 women, with a median age of 54 years were included in this study when they were due to donate stem cells to a brother or sister. Data were collected prospectively on three occasions (before the donation and three and twelve months after it) through in-depth interviews, which were recorded and transcribed verbatim for analysis by the Grounded Theory method according to Charmaz. Results: This study describes the efforts of the ten donors to fulfil their duty as a sibling by doing what they considered necessary in order to help. Their efforts were summarised in a process wherein the grounded theory generated three main categories; Prepare, Promote and Preserve. A clear path of transition leading to fulfilment is evident, starting before the donation and continuing for one year afterwards. Conclusions: Being a sibling stem cell donor means doing what you have to do to fulfil your duty and if possible, saving the life of a seriously ill brother or sister. The relationship between the siblings is strengthened by the donation process. Sibling stem cell donation appears to be about fulfilment and the theoretical framework may support clinicians in their evaluation and support of donors
