The objectives of the Phases I and II of Clinical Trials, “Prevention and Treatment of COVID-19 Infections Using Vitality TherapyTM” were, as the title indicates, to find prevention and cure for the COVID-19 infections. Phases I and II were funded by the author. The author is seeking funds from donors to start Phase III Clinical Trials. Methods: Group I participants were subjected to irradiation in an infrared sauna for 30 minutes weekly for the prevention of COVID-19 infections. Group II participants were infected patients. The patients were irradiated in infrared saunas for 60 minutes for treatment of COVID-19 infections. The wavelength of the infrared is 5 to 20 micrometers. To prevent dehydration at the fever temperature of 37.5°C to 39.0°C, participants were asked to drink 500 ml or more of hydrogen- rich micro-clustered antioxidant alkaline water with pH of 9.5 or ordinary tap water with pH 7 to 7.3. Acidic beverages or drinks with pH 2 to 6 were avoided. Group III participants were asked to take 2 to 5 grams of Vitamin C daily, with food, for the prevention of COVID-19 infections. The dosage was proportional to the weights of the participants. Results and Conclusion: Phases I and II of the Clinical Trials using Vitality TherapyTM revealed that COVID-19 infections can be prevented by 30 minutes of weekly infrared irradiation in an infrared sauna. With respect to the infected patients, 60 minutes irradiation in an infrared sauna completely cured the COVID-19 infections. There were no safety concerns. High doses of Vitamin C (Ascorbic acid), which produces Hydrogen Peroxide, can be used for preventing COVID-19 infections.","PeriodicalId":89408,"journal":{"name":"Journal of clinical research & bioethics","volume":"43 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69970825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The lock-down has worsened the prevailing economic crisis; affected the health and political system; and exacerbated unemployment levels in African settings, especially in the Democratic Republic of Congo. All these factors have had detrimental effects on the mental health of the affected population. We sought to provide insight into policy-relevant approaches including the integrative community-based organization, digital health; systematic screening of mental health problems in primary and clinical health care, given that failure to treat those who are emotionally affected will result in long-term social and economic outcomes. The primary health workforce should be trained and empowered to become incrementally efficient and to provide sustained mental health care services through digital health systems. Helping communities affected by COVID-19 to feel better mentally will require the integration of new technologies within primary health care to enable access to mental health screening and psychotherapy centered on a supportive therapy strategy, anger, and stress management. Furthermore, the establishment of personalized and integrative community-based mental health care will go a long way to assist mental health in developing countries characterized by a paucity of workers in order to achieve the coverage of mental health services during health emergencies. Any partnerships between the ministry of health and international organizations during the COVID-19 pandemic should plan for global commitment to increase the provision of needed mental health care services in the concerned communities.","PeriodicalId":89408,"journal":{"name":"Journal of clinical research & bioethics","volume":"1 1","pages":"1-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69971769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ethical, legal, and social consequences of integrating physiological and brain technology into market research have raised concerns, especially as this field continues to expand. Further, the expectations of the technology and research findings are often tainted by misrepresentation of false claims, neuromyths or inaccurate reporting. Herein, an explanation of consumer neuroscience is provided, as well as its limited power of persuasion. Concerns for autonomy, control, and privacy are addressed by reviewing common misconceptions of the influence consumer neuroscience has on decision making. Additionally, this paper clarifies the limitations of certain techniques implemented and discusses the importance of public knowledge to combat inaccurate interpretations of data results. By acknowledging the best applications for these tools, the value of consumer neuroscience in market research is revealed.","PeriodicalId":89408,"journal":{"name":"Journal of clinical research & bioethics","volume":"1 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69971648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
