Introduction
Respecting the concept of autonomy requires doctors to provide patients with the medical information and treatment alternatives they need to make their own decisions. It also encourages informed consent, honesty, and confidentiality. In the context of healthcare, autonomy is typically defined as the ability of competent individuals to make decisions about their own health care.

The World Medical Association, on the other hand, created the Helsinki Declaration as a guide for doctors and other medical professionals doing medical research on issues relating to people. Clinical trial ethical criteria were created because of World War II. Nazi war criminals were the focus of the Nuremberg trials, which were held there. 
As a result, in 1947, the Nuremberg trials were established because of the Doctors trial. Twenty-three people were charged with crimes against humanity (Bonah, & Schmaltz, 2020). All those trials led to the Nuremberg Code, which established 10 essential rules for handling human subject research. In order to safeguard the rights and welfare of those recruited to participate in research activities,
