Return of Results from Research Using Newborn Screening Dried Blood Samples.
There may be compelling reasons to return to parents a limited subset of results from research conducted using residual newborn screening dried blood samples (DBS). This article explores the circumstances under which research results might be returned, as well as the mechanisms by which state newborn screening programs might facilitate the return of research results. The scope of any responsibi...

Several factors including the place of abode, type of feed, birthweight, and the accuracy of the test have been found to affect the measured, phenylalanine concentration ...
متن کاملSome Observations on Dirac Measure-Preserving Transformations and their Results
Dirac measure is an important measure in many related branches to mathematics. The current paper characterizes measure-preserving transformations between two Dirac measure spaces or a Dirac measure space and a probability measure space. Also, it studies isomorphic Dirac measure spaces, equivalence Dirac measure algebras, and conjugate of Dirac measure spaces. The equivalence classes of a Dirac ...
متن کاملStorage and use of residual newborn screening dot blood samples in Italy
State newborn screening programs are essential to protect the health of children. Moreover, blood-spot card stocks and, in general, collections of biological specimens have a significant research potential. Children are a vulnerable research population, as they lack the capacity for consenting to their participation. However, unlike members of such other populations, children’s vulnerability is...
