💡 The social value and scientific methodological value of the proposed research are crucial.

⚖️ Balancing risks and benefits is an important aspect of ethical research.

🔍 When evaluating the risk-benefit in an ethics committee, there are two types of techniques: invasive and non-invasive.

💉 Injections can be considered invasive techniques, but the level of risk varies depending on factors such as the location and size of the injection.

⚖️ Risk assessment in research involves comparing the minimum risk with the potential complications that can occur.

🧮 The determination of minimum risk is subjective and can be compared to the daily life of an individual, which varies from person to person.

📉 In the case of healthy volunteers, the accepted risk level is higher compared to individuals with health issues.
