[Embryo selection and bioethical principles].

This paper analyzes, from the point of view of the principles of Bioethics, the problems of embryonic selection with the purpose of serving as donors of future transplant for their brothers seriously ill. Analyzed the principles of Bioethics of no malice, charity, autonomy and justice in connection with the matter explained, the author defends its moral fairness and he explains the necessity of proceeding to a legal reform which permits to accommodate in the Spanish Legal Code to this kind of embryonic selection, since nowadays laws into effect prohibit this practice with the purpose discussed here.

Applying theological developments to bioethical issues such as genetic screening.

Catholic movements within the centre of Roman Catholic doctrine recently have discussed Trinitarian theology as applied to sciences, arts, economics, health and other social areas. We explore the possibilities Trinitarian theology offers to bioethical debate, concentrating particularly on genetic screening and testing. It is important therefore to analyse the philosophical implications of this approach onto the bioethical world, where much disagreement occurs on fundamental issues. It is Catholic basic teaching to recognize and see God's hand in plurality, not merely as a cliche and then doing what we feel is right, but to recognize how to live in a pluralistic world. We recognize, in agreement with these theologians, that in order for a Trinitarian mode of understanding to be used by those doing bioethical debate, there is a need to depart from fundamentalism.

Assisted reproductive technology: both sides now.

Over the last 2 decades, increased pregnancy success has been achieved by assisted reproductive technology (ART) at the expense of perinatal well-being from a corresponding rise in multiple births. Multiple pregnancies increase the risk of prematurity, low birth weight, and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Together with recent concerns about possible birth defects and long-term developmental sequelae, modern ART practice is increasingly scrutinized for such adverse perinatal outcomes. Hence, it is mandatory for infertility specialists to look at ART from both sides now--its success and its complications. This article summarizes the prevalence of multiple pregnancies, the risk of low birth weight and possible birth defects, and long-term developmental sequelae associated with ART and discusses some potential approaches to minimizing these perinatal complications. Reducing the number of embryos transferred is an immediate action that can minimize adverse perinatal outcomes associated with multiple births. Continuous refinements in ART techniques will allow the transfer of a single embryo with equivalent rates of pregnancy success leading to a healthy, singleton live birth.

Where does a man stand on issues of assisted reproduction, surrogacy, artificial insemination within lesbian relationships and posthumous conception?

This article takes issues more commonly associated with women: assisted reproduction, surrogacy, artificial insemination within lesbian relationships and posthumous conception and considers what role a man may play in this domain. To this end the article commences with a short scenario of possible life events then traverses the current legal position to examine the extent that the law either facilitates or frustrates a man's desire and ability to fulfill the role of either father or parent in the above situations. The article considers the issues of assisted reproduction technology in both a regulated and an unregulated environment.

[The Evans case and the right not to be forced to reproduce].

The article analyses the ruling of the European Court of Human Rights, Evans v. United Kingdom, of March 7, 2006 (application no. 6339/05) from the perspective of the nature and the effects of a consent together with the conservation and disposal of cryopreserved embryos. Several prevailing normative models are studied in order to look at the disposal of embryos and to test its legal consistency. As a conclusion and basing it on the Evans case, there is a proposition to distinguish between the acts of disposal of spare embryos from IVF programs and the deposit of embryos as a way to prevent lack of fertility.
