This work presents a bibliometric profile of Bioethics Journal according to the following journal databases: MEDLINE, LILACS, The Philosopher' s Index, Ulrich's, SciELO and Qualis classification system (Brazil).

A (36%); most Bioethics journals appeared in the 1990's (47%), and 36% have less than 10 years of existence. From those that disappeared (34%), the average survival time was about 4 years. There are only 12 countries with indexed journals. In Brazil, from 3 Bioethics journals, only one is (partially) indexed. English is the preponderant language (45%). Only 3% of journals are monthly. LILACS has two additional publications (Acta Bioethica, Chile, and Revista Latino Americana, Colombia). SciELO has only Acta Bioethica. In Ulrich's database, there are eight additional publications.

O estado puerperal e suas interseções com a bioética

Lillian Ponchio e Silva discute aqui, com rigor e veemência, alguns pontos nevrálgicos do debate relativo ao altamente polêmico delito do infanticídio. O trabalho utiliza como fundamento a constatação de que a Bioética principalista não leva em conta os conflitos presentes no contexto social de países com grandes desigualdades. Esta última ciência pressupõe um sujeito livre de qualquer tipo de opressão e, assim, torna o infanticídio um crime essencialmente moral, sem levar em conta suas condicionantes sociais. Ao considerar somente algumas vozes e interesses, portanto, a Bioética principalista deixa à margem da pauta de discussão os indivíduos e grupos tradicionalmente oprimidos e vulneráveis. Para a autora, é preciso buscar uma maneira mais adequada de tratar o infanticídio e, ainda, tentar avançar na discussão de algumas questões específicas, como a análise do estado puerperal (expressão extremamente ambígua e muito contestada pelos médicos) e a tutela do bem jurídico no infanticídio, além do tratamento dispensado à mulher nessa situação.

As trevas da razão esclarecida e as pesquisas em seres humanos em Tuskegee e na Guatemala: um caso de bioética

This work is aimed at examining the paradox of modernity, from the opposition between Enlightenment ideals and historical events that followed, especially during the twentieth century, as well as to study the impact of mismatch on Bioethics, adopting as a reference epistemological critical theory of the Frankfurt School. Bioethics presents itself as a shaky science, devoid of references, and primarily impacted by the emptying of ethics. The reason desubjectivation established by and exacerbated by modern enlightenment, was able to erect dark scary for humanity and promote barbaric practices in the name of a science that promises order and progress. This paradox and the fallacy of reason enlightened by scientific advances are wide open, always accompanied by ethical and moral returns scary. Some examples are the surveys conducted in Tuskegee and Guatemala, and treated in this study, which show how far modern rationality and all its consequences

Pesquisas em animais: uma reflexão bioética

Animal models are an important tool in scientific research. It is known that this practice must be based on bioethical principles in order to impose limits about pain and suffering, or for inspecting proceedings and research site. This study has as aim to evaluate and present current legislation ruling animal research in Brazil, comparing it with other countries, as well as fostering bioethical reflection about this issue. For this, we present current Brazilian legislation and we have carried out international literature review and discussion. The articles were searched in PubMed data base, using the key words "bioethics" and "animal welfare". Nineteen articles from 1997 to 2013 were included. It was concluded the evident contribution of animal research for scientific research in several fields. It is morally relevant for humans, as rational beings, to secure humane treatment to animals contributing to research. The safest way to follow this path is establishing clear norms and studies well designed, involving society for assigning ethical norms. Thus, animal welfare would be guarantee.
