Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Research Ethics
  • Biomedical Publication Standards
  • Informed Consent in Research

Background:

  • Authors are expected to report adherence to ethical guidelines in biomedical publications.
  • Reporting on ethics committee approval and informed consent is a standard practice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the proportion of research manuscripts in two Indian pediatric journals that report ethical clearance, informed consent, and assent.
  • To assess ethical reporting standards in Indian pediatric research.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of research articles published in 'Indian Pediatrics' and 'Indian Journal of Pediatrics' in 2006.
  • Review of articles for reporting on ethical clearance, informed consent from guardians, and assent from child participants.
  • Descriptive statistics were used to express findings as percentages.

Main Results:

  • Only 29.53% of manuscripts reported ethics committee approval.
  • 46.94% of prospective studies reported informed consent, while 34.10% mentioned neither approval nor consent.
  • Assent was reported in only 14.81% of eligible studies, and only 7.41% reported all three ethical elements (approval, consent, assent).

Conclusions:

  • A significant proportion of published pediatric research articles from India lack adequate reporting on ethical approval, informed consent, and assent.
  • There is a need to improve ethical reporting standards in pediatric research publications.
  • Ensuring and reporting ethical practices is crucial for protecting vulnerable populations in research.
