Postmortem Metabolomics: Strategies to Assess Time-Dependent Postmortem Changes of Diazepam, Nordiazepam, Morphine, Codeine, Mirtazapine and Citalopram [PDF]

Metabolites, 2021
Postmortem redistribution (PMR) can result in artificial drug concentration changes following death and complicate forensic case interpretation. Currently, no accurate methods for PMR prediction exist.

Examination of postmortem changes in the lungs, trachea, and bronchi in a rat model imaged with small-animal computed tomography [PDF]

Fujita Medical Journal, 2023
Objectives: As less autopsies are performed, the need for postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) as an alternative is increasing. It is important to know how postmortem changes over time are reflected on CT, in order to improve the diagnostic capability ...

Postmortem changes in brain cell structure: a review [PDF]

Free Neuropathology, 2023
Brain cell structure is a key determinant of neural function that is frequently altered in neurobiological disorders. Following the global loss of blood flow to the brain that initiates the postmortem interval (PMI), cells rapidly become depleted of ...

Feasibility of an Isolated Kidney Perfusion Model for Postmortem Interval Estimation in a Rabbit Model: A Pilot Study [PDF]

Diagnostics
Background: The estimation of the postmortem interval (PMI) remains a complex challenge in forensic medicine. While macroscopic, biochemical, and molecular methods are well-documented, postmortem functional approaches at the organ level are largely ...

Study of Root Transparency in Different Postmortem Intervals Using Scanning Electron Microscopy

Diagnostics, 2023
In the fields of forensics, the identification of human remains is a recurrent problem. The estimated age at death is one of the copious criteria to be evaluated. In adult teeth, the height of the root dentin transparency is used to estimate age. However,

Hantavirus and criminality: disease and family

Revista de Epidemiologia e Controle de Infecção, 2020
Background and objectives: Hantavirus is a pathogen that causes a viral disease with an acute and severe presentation, and a high mortality rate. In face of a sudden loss, some families may not conceive the complete absence of the deceased relative ...

The Influence of Eyelid Position and Environmental Conditions on the Corneal Changes in Early Postmortem Interval: A Prospective, Multicentric OCT Study

Diagnostics, 2022
In the current study, using portable optical coherence tomography, we evaluated 46 corneas of 23 individuals in a multicenter setting during the first 17 h after death. Twenty-three eyes were kept open, and twenty three were kept closed. Furthermore, the
