CRISPR01:59

CRISPR

Genome editing technologies allow scientists to modify an organism’s DNA via the addition, removal, or rearrangement of genetic material at specific genomic locations. These types of techniques could potentially be used to cure genetic disorders such as hemophilia and sickle cell anemia. One popular and widely used DNA-editing research tool that could lead to safe and effective cures for genetic disorders is the CRISPR-Cas9 system. CRISPR-Cas9 stands for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short...
Ethical Dilemmas I01:17

Ethical Dilemmas I

Ethical dilemmas in nursing are of utmost importance, as they often arise from the tension between adhering to core ethical principles and the practical realities of healthcare delivery. These dilemmas require nurses to navigate complex situations where competing ethical considerations pull them in different directions.
Let us explore some examples to understand the potentially complex moral decisions nurses face.

Cloning of Dolly the Sheep01:08

Cloning of Dolly the Sheep

The first successfully cloned mammal was Dolly, a sheep, born on 5th July 1996 at Roslin Institute, Scotland. The cloned sheep was named after the American singer Dolly Parton. Dolly lived for seven years and died of respiratory complications, which is speculated to be due to the actual age of her DNA. Because the DNA in cloned cells belongs to an older individual,  the cloned individual’s life expectancy may be affected. Indeed, analysis of Dolly’s DNA revealed shorter telomeres than other...
Psychosurgery01:30

Psychosurgery

Psychosurgery, the surgical alteration or permanent removal of brain tissue to alleviate severe psychological conditions, stands as one of the most radical and controversial treatments in the history of mental health care. Its development and application have evolved significantly, marked by dramatic shifts in scientific understanding and ethical perspectives.

Summary

Educated individuals in Nepal largely support abortion legalization but lack awareness of comprehensive abortion care (CAC) services and their costs. Increased advocacy for abortion law and CAC services is crucial for public knowledge.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Reproductive Health Policy
  • Sociology of Health

Background:

  • Nepal legalized abortion, aiming to improve reproductive health outcomes.
  • Understanding public awareness of abortion laws and services is key to policy effectiveness.
  • Comprehensive Abortion Care (CAC) sites are vital for safe abortion access.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess awareness and perceptions of abortion law and CAC services among educated Nepalis.
  • To evaluate the adequacy of advocacy for the new abortion law and CAC sites.
  • To identify knowledge gaps regarding abortion services and costs.

Main Methods:

  • A survey involving 150 educated participants (above school leaving certificate).
  • Random assignment of participants to the survey.

  • Structured questionnaires were used to gather data on perceptions of abortion and CAC sites.

    • Main Results:

    • Most participants knew abortion is legal and held positive attitudes towards its legalization.
    • A significant majority were unaware of available abortion services at CAC sites.
    • None of the participants knew the cost associated with abortion services.

    Conclusions:

    • There is a critical need for enhanced and adequate advocacy regarding Nepal's abortion law.
    • Public awareness campaigns must highlight the availability and specifics of Comprehensive Abortion Care (CAC) services.
    • Addressing knowledge gaps on service accessibility and costs is essential for effective reproductive healthcare.
