AI Article Synopsis
- Human cadaveric donors play a crucial role in anatomical research, yet many studies fail to ethically address their use or exhibit inconsistent language regarding consent.
- To improve this, 22 editors from anatomical journals worldwide collaborated to create standardized language for authors discussing ethical cadaver use in their studies.
- This initiative aims to enhance the consistency and professionalism of anatomical research while promoting the adoption of similar language in other disciplines and media outlets.
Article Abstract
Human cadaveric donors are essential for research in the anatomical sciences. However, many research papers in the anatomical sciences often omit a statement regarding the ethical use of the donor cadavers or, as no current standardized versions exist, use language that is extremely varied. To rectify this issue, 22 editors-in-chief of anatomical journals, representing 17 different countries, developed standardized and simplified language that can be used by authors of studies that use human cadaveric tissues. The goal of these editor recommendations is to standardize the writing approach by which the ethical use of cadaveric donors is acknowledged in anatomical studies that use donor human cadavers. Such sections in anatomical papers will help elevate our discipline and promote standardized language use in others non anatomy journals and also other media outlets that use cadaveric tissues.
