The Tuskegee Experiment had the purpose to observe the natural history of untreated syphilis.
Объяснение
## Step 1The Tuskegee Experiment, also known as the Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro was a clinical study conducted between 1932 and 1972 by the U.S. Public Health Service. This study was conducted to understand the natural progression of untreated syphilis.## Step 2The study involved 600 African American men, 399 of whom had syphilis and 201 of whom did not. The men were not informed that they had syphilis, and they were not offered treatment even after penicillin became the standard treatment for syphilis in 1947.## Step 3The study was conducted without the informed consent of the participants, and it was not properly documented. This led to significant ethical violations and was a major scandal in the medical community.## Step 4The Tuskegee Experiment is often cited as a classic example of medical ethics violations and is used as a cautionary tale in discussions about medical ethics and the rights of research subjects.
