The applicability of forensic time since death estimation methods for buried bodies in advanced decomposition stages.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Estimation of the postmortem interval in advanced postmortem stages is a challenging task. Although there are several approaches available for addressing postmortem changes of a (human) body or its environment (ecologically and/or biochemically), most ...

Postmortem Ocular Findings in the Optical Coherence Tomography Era: A Proof of Concept Study Based on Six Forensic Cases

Diagnostics, 2021
Postmortem analysis of the ocular globe is an important topic for forensic pathology and transplantology. Although crucial elements may be gathered from examining cadaveric eyes, the latter do not routinely undergo in-depth analysis.

STEP levels are unchanged in pre-frontal cortex and associative striatum in post-mortem human brain samples from subjects with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Increased protein levels of striatal-enriched tyrosine phosphatase (STEP) have recently been reported in postmortem schizophrenic cortex. The present study sought to replicate this finding in a separate cohort of postmortem samples and to extend ...

An investigation of postmortem urotensin II receptor levels in brain and kidney tissues in a rat model of cardiac ischemia

Journal of Forensic Science and Medicine, 2018
This study aimed to investigate changes in postmortem urotensin II receptor (UTR) levels in brain and kidney tissues in a rat model of cardiac ischemia. The rats were divided into two groups: a control group and a cardiac ischemia-induced group.

Metagenomic identification of pathogenic bacteria for pneumonia from postmortem lung tissue

Human Pathology Reports, 2022
Pathologists have been concerned about the validity of bacterial cultures from lung tissue for the postmortem identification of pneumonia-associated pathogens. Therefore, we studied whether pathogenic bacteria that cause pneumonia could be identified via

A Systematic Review About Postmortem Pink Teeth: Forensic Classification, Diagnostic Value, and Analysis Methods

Diagnostics
Background: The phenomenon of pink teeth represents a notable observation in forensic science, although its interpretation remains complex and not directly attributable to a specific cause of death. Methods: This systematic review provides an updated and
