  • - The report discusses a case involving the interdisciplinary analysis of mummified remains of a subadult female, highlighting the need for collaboration among forensic experts in pathology, anthropology, and entomology to draw accurate conclusions related to child abuse and neglect.
  • - Analysis of the remains revealed evidence of advanced decomposition, various fractures, signs of growth arrest indicating neglect, and dried subdural blood, leading to the conclusion that the child suffered from repeated violence and trauma throughout her life.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates how nerve connections (innervation) affect prostate cancer, noting that while many experiments show nerves influence cancer growth, there's limited information specifically about human prostate cancer innervation.
  • - Analysis of prostate tissue samples revealed a significant decrease in nerve density in cancerous tissues compared to normal tissues and benign prostatic hyperplasia, with various types of nerves detected (sympathetic, parasympathetic, and sensory).
  • - The research suggests that while the pattern of innervation in prostate cancer is similar to that in healthy tissues, the overall nerve presence is much lower, particularly in higher-grade cancer cases, and does not show increased nerve activity linked to cancer proliferation.
