High Technologies

Modern research advanced open wide prospects for socio-economic and cultural progress, but they could also pose a threat for human rights and liberties. It is stated in the article that the transformation of the modern world under the influence of high technologies is leading to the emergence of new types of crimes; the authors show the necessity of developing a criminal law reaction to crimes connected with artificial intelligence, cybercrimes, crimes in the sphere of biotech, as well as the need to work out new approaches to fighting crimes linked to high technologies. The authors claim that the foundations for digital criminalistics have already been laid. They analyze the use of hi tech with criminal purposes in different spheres, including assisted reproductive technologies, and stress that the problems of population replacement, connected with human reproductive functions, are essential for the existence and development of any state and society. Meanwhile, there are considerable discrepancies in how different countries understand human reproductive rights, their protection and regulation. The criminal nature of different actions in the sphere of human reproduction is also understood differently. Modern medical technologies open up great possibilities in the sphere of assisted human reproduction, at the same time, this area is connected with legal risks. The authors attempt to compile a list of crimes against reproductive rights of humans and to view them as a unified object of criminalistic research. It is noted that the use of biotechnologies with criminal purposes could take the form of improper exercise and excess of authority, corruption, fraud and extortion. The article includes the results of the criminalistic analysis of legislation regarding assisted reproduction technologies. It has been revealed that the use of such technologies in Russia is growing year by year, while the legislation regulating legal relations in this sphere makes it possible to use its imperfections and to commit abuses and crimes connected with various falsifications. It is proven that the task of criminalistics is to develop effective technical, tactical and methodological recommendations with the goal of identifying and investigating criminally punishable falsifications. Specifically, it is recommended to introduce obligatory notarization of the surrogacy contract, and to change the procedure of presenting corresponding documentation to registry offices.

As the number of infertile couples is growing in Russia, the use of assisted reproductive technologies (In vitro fertilization, surrogacy, etc.) have been widely developed. Thus, there is the urgent need of proper legal regulation and measures to protect the rights of both surrogate mothers and genetic parents from diff erent abuses, including those of criminal nature. The legislation governing relations in this area needs further development. There are a review of foreign laws concerned, and the analysis of different positions on human reproductive rights in this article. An attempt has been made to determine the list of crimes against human reproductive rights. The necessity of advocacy in the sphere of assisted reproductive technologies is reasoned as a measure of protection of human reproductive rights.

This article is devoted to analysis of legal regulation of the use of assisted reproductive technologies by persons, not married among themselves, in the Russia and the United States. The purpose of this work is due to the increase in the number of actual marital relations in the modern world and the emergence of new ways of human reproduction. In Russia 13% of the adult population are in unregistered marriages. For best results of the investigation, the author used a comparative legal method, that allows to consider the experience of not only Russia, but also foreign countries. The author of the article examines the existing in Russia and the US versions of legal regulation of the use of assisted reproductive technologies by persons not married to each other. The author compares the regulation of the legal consequences of persons, married and non-married among themselves. As a result of the conducted research the author comes to the conclusion that in Russia the legal regulation of the effects of the use of assisted reproductive technologies differ depending on the marital status among themselves. Persons, who are not married, are not subject to special provisions of the Family Code of the Russian Federation, dedicated to regulation of the legal implications of the use of reproductive technologies. In the US it is fixed the same procedure for determining the origin of a child, conceived by nontraditional means, regardless of the status of persons in marriage.

In late 2019, the new Coronavirus has been identified in the city of Wuhan (China) then COVID-19 spreads like wildfire in the rest of the world. Pregnant women represent a risk category for increased abortion rates and vertical transmission with adverse events on the newborns has been recently confirmed. The scientific world is struggling for finding an effective cure for counteracting symptomatology. Today, there are many therapeutic proposes but none of them can effectively counteract the infection. Moreover, many of these compounds show important side effects not justifying their use. Scientific literature reports an immune system over-reaction through interleukins- 6 activation. In this regard, the possibility to control the immune system represents a possible strategy for counteracting the onset of COVID-19 symptomatology. Vitamin D deficiency shows increased susceptibility to acute viral respiratory infections. Moreover, Vitamin D seems involved in host protection from different virus species by modulating activation and release of cytokines. Myo-inositol down-regulates the expression of IL-6 by phosphatidyl-inositol-3-kinase pathway. Furthermore, myo-inositol is the precursor of phospholipids in the surfactant and it is applied for inducing surfactant synthesis in infants for treating respiratory distress syndrome. This review aims to summarize the evidence about COVID-19 infection in pregnant women and to encourage the scientific community to investigate the use of Vitamin D and Myo-inositol which could represent a possible preventive treatment for pregnant women or women undergoing assisted reproductive technologies.

During the last decade, the availability of next-generation sequencing-based approaches has revealed the presence of microbial communities in almost all the human body, including the reproductive tract. As for other body sites, this resident microbiota has been involved in the maintenance of a healthy status. As a consequence, alterations due to internal or external factors may lead to microbial dysbiosis and to the development of pathologies. Female reproductive microbiota has also been suggested to affect infertility, and it may play a key role in the success of assisted reproductive technologies, such as embryo implantation and pregnancy care. While the vaginal microbiota is well described, the uterine microbiota is underexplored. This could be due to technical issues, as the uterus is a low biomass environment. Here, we review the state of the art regarding the role of the female reproductive system microbiota in women’s health and human reproduction, highlighting its contribution to infertility.

Do So

For many commentators in bioethics and the law, safety is the fulcrum for evaluating the ethics of human reproductive cloning. Carson Strong has argued that if cloning were effective and safe it should be available to married couples who have tried to have children through various assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) but been unable to do so. On his view, cloning should be available only as reproductive last resort. I challenged that limited use by trying to show that the arguments Strong adduces in favor of reproductive somatic nuclear transfer (SNT) for married couples extend to same-sex couples as well, who face a different kind of infertility. I also went on to argue that his justifications would in fact extend the legitimate use of SNT to any couples regardless of whether they had fertility difficulties or not.

Introduction. The presented work considers the main features of the high-tech sphere, presents trends in its development taking into account the requirements of time and processes of globalization and integration based on the generalization and analysis of theoretical, analytical and statistical information layer.  It is determined that the concept  of high technology is a new technology based on the current stage of scientific and technological development. They correspond to a specific list of world commodity markets and priorities of scientific, technical and innovation policy of developed countries. The peculiarity of high technologies is that their rapid development changes the market and accelerates in other sectors of the economy.The purpose of the study is the process of creating new high technologies, and the subject of the study is the analysis of the main trends in the development of high-tech industry. The aim of the study is to consider the processes of globalization in the context of their impact on the high-tech sphere. The study is based on the analysis of research in the field of high technology and the formation of major trends in high-tech development, which allows to predict the main vector of development of high-tech sphere and the ability to forecast the development of domestic high-tech sphere.Research methods. The article used general scientific and specific research methods, in particular: comparison - to study the theoretical foundations of high-tech development and the formation of a categorical research apparatus; analysis and synthesis - in the process of identifying trends in the development of high-tech sphere.Research results. Technological progress has completely changed the structure of the modern world economy. Thanks to technology, new activities have now been developed, many of which are efficient and highly profitable. A classic example of the impact of      the introduction of high technology in everyday life is the emergence and use of new information technology. With the widespread use of new communication technology, this has dramatically reduced the cost of voice, data, text, images, and international charges for the transmission of information. Note that not every technology is a commodity and not every brand of technology. Technology can be a commodity in a certain field of activity, from an idea to a market, where you can identify applications that can be commercialized, analyzed and used. However, in this case, the technology must meet the requirements of standard products, such as patents, know-how, industrial or industrial designs, manufacturing practices, equipment and other equipment, technology, in short, as a means of production. technological processes.Perspectives. In future research we plan to identify the main problems of development of high-tech sphere of Ukraine; a promising direction is to determine the main characteristics of high-tech products, which are formed at each stage of production and in the presence of unsatisfactory characteristics, possible intervention in the production process of a prototype high-tech product.

The purpose of the research is to determine the features of foreign experience in protecting reproductive human rights from crimes. The article analyzes the legislation regulating human reproductive rights, provides various points of view of scientists regarding artificial human reproduction. The scientific novelty of the work consists in the development of various mechanisms to protect the legal status of both surrogate mothers and genetic parents, which helps to reduce crime. As a result, the models of perception of the phenomenon in question are defined, both in Europe and in the Asian region. Various ways to minimize legal conflicts are suggested. In addition, taking into account this kind of reality, we have identified differential approaches to the issue of legal liability for abuse in the field of artificial reproduction to people in the countries of the European and Asian continents. They also identified specific features of the work of Russian clinics as agents of medical and genetic consultations with foreign citizens (In particular, the Netherlands, Thailand, and some USA States).

The very idea of human reproductive rights seems challenging. For much of human history, they were not discussed seriously as being a part of the right to privacy, liberty, security, equality, health, and non-discrimination. The situation changed drastically in the 1990s with the development of reproductive technologies. These technologies do not only help infertile couples to conceive, they allow single men and women, no matter their status and sexual preferences, to have offspring of the same genetic origin. We can affirm that in the 21st century assisted reproductive technology (ART) has completely changed what it means to have a baby and to be a parent. Despite their benefits, reproductive technologies leave space for ethical and medical concerns. A few of the many issues raised by reproductive technologies include: the reproductive right to abortion, legal status of the human fetus, ethical aspects regarding the use and storage of embryos, sex selection, surrogacy and gamete donation, and the right and accessibility to medical sterilization. This article sets forth the existing ethical and human rights standards on these issues and illustrates the need for further development and clarity on balancing these rights and interests in the Russian Federation.
