Detection and Estimation of Age of Injuries in Fresh Bodies Using Immunohistochemistry.

A cross-sectional study of the wound age estimation from the forensic skin wound samples was performed immunohistochemically with a sample size of 40 (n = 40). The samples were segregated according to the appropriate stages of wound healing with the help of hematoxylin-eosin staining. Later, they were subjected to immunohistochemistry staining with anti-AQP3 antibody.

Estimation of time since death based on light microscopic, electron microscopic, and electrolyte analysis in the gingival tissue.

Background: Estimation of time since death is an important parameter in forensic science. Although there are various methods available, precise estimation is still to be established.

Aim: The present study aimed to evaluate the histological and ultrastructural changes in the gingival tissue along with the changes in electrolyte levels (sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium) among the three groups which included normal, 2, and 4 h since death.

Sudden Death Due to Giant Cell Myocarditis: A Case Report.

The definition of sudden death is variable and there has been no single all-purpose definition. Sudden death can be defined as sudden or unexpected death in an otherwise healthy individual who is not known to have been suffering from any dangerous disease, injury or poisoning and is found dead or dies within 24 hours after the onset of terminal illness. Some authorities limit the duration to 1 hour.
