Carrion insects living within the bones of large mammals: insect conservation and forensic entomology implications.

Succession patterns of carrion insects on large mammal's carrion has been widely studied, notably to estimate the post-mortem interval in forensic investigations as accurately as possible. However, little attention has been paid to the carrion insects living inside these bones once a carcass is skeletonized. One very recent study documented flies emerging from pig carcasses, and only scarce authors reported the presence of other carrion insects taking advantage of the bone marrow.

27.12 MHz Radiofrequency Ablation for Benign Cutaneous Lesions.

As surgical and/or ablative modalities, radiofrequency (RF) has been known to produce good clinical outcomes in dermatology. Recently, 27.12 MHz RF has been introduced and has several advantages over conventional 4 or 6 MHz in terms of the precise ablation and lesser pain perception.

Effect of 27-MHz radiofrequency on hair follicles: histological evaluation of skin treated ex vivo.

Background: A multitude of methods and treatments exist for cosmetic hair removal. Electroepilation is a commonly performed method of hair removal that is so-called "permanent"; however, there is a paucity of histological studies of the effects of radiofrequency (RF) on hair follicles.

Objective: This study aimed to observe the destruction of human hair follicles and surrounding tissue after the treatment with 27.
