Publication of Nazi Hypothermia Experiments

This is an unusual dilemma that is much more than an eco-dilemma.  During the Nazi era, Jewish concentration camp prisoners were made guinea pigs in a variety of experiments. One of these experiments involved submerging them in ice water to study the effects of hypothermia.  These experiments were conducted in the hope of developing effective ways of preventing hypothermia in German pilots shot down over the North Sea. Much was learned from these experiments that could benefit our understanding of this life-threatening condition today.

The question is whether or not you feel the results of the Nazi experiments should be published or should they be locked away in respect for the people who died during these experiments.
