The proposed study is most likely to violate the ethical principle of autonomy, which is the right of individuals to make decisions about their own healthcare. Newborns cannot provide informed consent for their screening samples to be used in research, and parents/guardians may not fully understand the implications of participating in the study. Therefore, there is a potential for exploitation and infringement on the autonomy of the newborns and their families.
