	Nazi human experimentation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Almost all of Mengele's experiments were of little scientific value, including attempts to change eye color by injecting chemicals into children's eyes, various amputations and other brutal surgeries, and in at least one case attempting to create artificial conjoined twins by sewing the veins of twins together.
		In the course of these experiments 75 percent of the selected number of inmates were vaccinated with one of the vaccines or nourished with one of the chemical substances and, after a period of 3 to 4 weeks, were infected with spotted fever germs.
		Experiments with yellow fever, smallpox, typhus, paratyphus A and B, cholera, and diphtheria were also conducted.

	The Validity of Nazi Hypothermia Experimentations
		The medical experiments fell into two broad categories: (1) experiments whose objectives were compatible with professional medical ethics and the proposes of medical practice, but whose mode of implementation violated moral law; (2) experiments whose very purposes violated medical ethics and which were irreconcilable with the accepted norms of medical research (Gutman 958).
		Experiments involving medical treatment took place in far greater numbers and consisted of three main categories: those relating to the treatment of battle injuries; those relating to the treatment of victims of gas attacks; and those testing immunization compounds or medicines, for the prevention or treatment, respectively, of contagious or epidemic diseases.
		The experiments comprised of sterilization and castration of non-Aryan races, severe starvation, exposing prisoners to extreme pressure and temperature, transplantation of bones and organs, vivisection of the brain and various muscles, liquidation; chiefly gassing and lethal injections, injection and consumption of sea water, and random acts of cruelty (Nazi 1-5).

	Jewish Law - Articles ("The Ethics Of Using Medical Data From Nazi Experiments")
		When the medical problem is not pressing (schizophrenic brain research) and the benefit to society is relatively marginal, the need to preserve the integrity of the medical profession and the victims' memory outweighs the potential benefit to society.
		Ultimately, the arguments as to whether the experiments were scientific or not, or whether the doctors were medically competent or not, leaves one with the impression that had such experiments been "good" science and the doctors medical professionals, these facts would somehow change our impression of the doctors and their experiments.
		Citations of the Nazi data must be accompanied with the author's condemnation of the data as a lesson in horror and as a moral aberration in medical science.

	Nazi Medicine and Public Health Policy
		Nazi Germany also pioneered what we now call experimental epidemiology: two striking papers -- a 1939 article by Franz H. Müller of Cologne, and a 1943 paper by Eberhard Schairer and Erich Schöniger of Jena -- presented the most convincing demonstrations up to that time that cigarettes were a major cause of lung cancer.
		Nazi medical ethics was underpinned by sexist paternalism, Nordic supremacy, cleanliness, punctuality, orderliness,
		A 1943 article in a leading German cancer journal cited the "demands of medical ethics" to inform patients of the severity of their diseases, and in at least one case a physician was prosecuted for failing to inform a woman she had cancer (physicians protested the ruling in print).

	UJC - Nazi Medical Experiments More Common Than Thought
		The scope of the often horrific medical experiments performed by Nazi doctors on Jews during the Holocaust is far more extensive than previously known, according to the newly released testimonies of nearly 2,000 surviving victims.
		The testimonies revealed that medical experiments were conducted not just at Auschwitz but at 30 concentration camps and ghettos, according to Gideon Taylor, executive vice president of the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany.
		Her 1999 lawsuit against the pharmaceutical giant Bayer alleging that it collaborated in Nazi medical experiments on Jews was a factor in deciding that victims of Nazi medical experiments would share the compensation of slave and forced laborers, Taylor said.

	Nazi Nightmares - Medical Killing in Nazi Germany
		Nazi doctors carried out direct medical killings as part of "life unworthy of life" policy, as well as deathly experiments on concentration camp prisoners.
		Along with that, Nazi obsession with an idea of complete erasure of the Jews out of Europe led to the elimination of Jewish physicians and the gradual exclusion and barring of Jews from medical practice altogether.
		SS doctors also practiced a murderous "epidemiology" sending prisoners with a contagious disease, especially typhus and scarlet fever, to the gas chambers, sometimes with their fellow patients, contagious or not, so that the entire block could be "disinfected".

		Reference is made to the subatmospheric pressure experiments which are being carried out on concentration camp inmates in the Dachau camp by the air force.
		The third experiment of this type took such an extraordinary course that I called an SS physician of the camp as a witness, since I had worked on these experiments all by myself.
		When the skull and the cavities of the breast and of the abdomen had been opened under water, an enormous amount of air embolism was found in the vessels of the brain, the coronary vessels, and vessels of the liver and the intestines, etc.

		Nazi Germans and the doctors involved rationalized their actions as the best thing for humanity, "specifically the Aryan race." But the world has judged their actions to be sadistic and murderous.
		Nazi mass killings removed a barrier and crossed a boundary in the doctors' perception of using medical experiments for research.
		Other experiments were done to find out how humans would respond to extreme freezing temperatures, in order to better protect their own troops, "who often faced exposure to bitterly cold environments." They tried different methods involving hot baths, sun lamps or internal irrigation to see how people would respond to near-death freezing temperatures.

		But I have to ask this question: In World War II, the Nazis experimented on human beings in horrible ways in the concentration camps, and I imagine, if you wanted to take the time to read about it, there would have been some discoveries there that benefited mankind.
		We condemn what the Nazis did because there are some things that we always could do but we haven't done, because science always has to be guided by ethics and by morality.
		He was making a connection between the utilitarian morality that the Nazis used to defend their perverse medical experiments with the moral arguments used to defend the destruction of human embryos in stem cell research.

		However, there were a great deal of findings about the human body from these experiments since it is not legal to treat human beings in this manner, so this was the only time these kinds of things were ever done to the human body.
		Would the use of Nazi imformation somehow justify their heinous crimes against mankind, or is it just for the sake of science and the well-being of future people?

	[No title]
		There is no legitimate comparison between stem-cell research, which seeks to find a cure for disease and to counter human suffering, and the perversion of science and morality represented by the actions of Nazi doctors who deliberately tortured their victims in medical "experiments" on human beings, including young children and the disabled.
		While reasonable, decent people may legitimately differ in their views of embryonic cell research, it is a gross distortion -- and an offensive misuse of the Holocaust - to compare stem-cell research to the hideous barbarities of Nazi pseudo-science.
		Your suggestion that the Nazi experiments could have resulted in "discoveries that benefited mankind" is especially odious to Jewish survivors of the Holocaust who lost relatives and loved ones as a result of those horrific experiments.

	Media Matters - Dobson likened embryonic stem cell research to Nazi experiments
		On the August 3 broadcast of the Focus on the Family radio show -- devoted to a discussion of stem cell research -- James C. Dobson, founder and chairman of Focus on the Family, compared embryonic stem cell research with Nazi experiments conducted on live human patients during and prior to the Holocaust.
		Once born to one of this listeners, I would assume the child (or children if they chose to save more than one, and why would you not save more than one?) would be raised by both parents in a traditional family.
		Dobson should logically be for this type of "adoption", but he might decry the fact that only a small number of embryos survive the process and actually become born.
