How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Crimes against morality in the field of medicine, including violations of patients' rights, unlawful medical experiments, negligence, commercialization of medicine, and moral violence, undermine public trust in medical institutions and professionals. These crimes have serious consequences for the health and well-being of patients, as well as for the moral and ethical foundations of the medical profession. To study crimes against morality in medicine, identify their types and causes, and propose ways to minimize such violations through enhanced control, improvement of ethical education, and the development of legislative initiatives. A comprehensive analysis of domestic and foreign literature, judicial practices, and official reports from medical and legal institutions was conducted. Methods of content analysis, qualitative and quantitative approaches, as well as comparative analysis of the legislation of various countries on medical ethics, were used. Crimes against morality in medicine were classified into several categories: violation of patients' rights, unlawful experiments, negligence, commercialization of medicine, and moral violence. The consequences of such crimes are discussed, and ways to prevent them are proposed through improvements in the education and control systems in the medical field. The research findings emphasize the need for the development of stricter control measures to ensure compliance with medical ethics, the creation of effective self-regulation mechanisms, and the activation of educational programs, which will help reduce violations and restore trust in the medical profession.
