Improved understanding of the clinical outcomes of orthopedic implants requires the study of implants at the end of their service life. Previous studies focused on the retrieval of so-called failed implants during surgical revision. Interest is now moving to the study of successful implants, which are those still in place at the patient's death. A procedure was developed for recruitment of implant patients and their families and for safe and effective device and tissue retrieval after death. More than 50 retrievals were performed to support various research efforts.

: Firearm wounds tend to have a precise pattern. Despite this, real-world case presentations can present uncertain elements, sometimes deviating from what is considered standard, and present uncommon features that are difficult for forensic pathologists and ballistic experts to explain. : A retrospective analysis of autopsy reports from the Institute of Legal Medicine, University of Catania, covering 2019-2023, included 348 judicial inspections and 378 autopsies performed as part of the institute's overall activities.

Background: Schizophrenia (SZ) is a severe mental disorder that is marked by hallucinations and cognitive impairments. Ferroptosis is a type of cell death that is associated with iron and lipid peroxidation; it may play a role in SZ etiology. The present study aimed to explore the correlations between ferroptosis-related genes and SZ in three brain regions.

In the last decade, heart transplants using allografts from adult donors after circulatory death, in a controlled setting, controlled donation after circulatory death (cDCD) have been rapidly adopted and widely performed. The selection of retrieval methods has largely been determined by state or institutional guidelines concerning permissible postmortem procedures. A significant majority of cDCD heart recoveries have employed direct procurement and perfusion (DPP) followed by normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) for graft preservation.

End-of-Life Advisory Panel, Australian College of Critical Care Nurses, Banora Point, NSW, Australia; Paediatric Intensive Care Unit, Queensland Children's Hospital, South Brisbane, QLD, Australia.
Background: The death of a child can have a profound impact on critical care nurses, shaping their professional practice and personal lives in diverse, enduring ways. Whilst end-of-life care is recognised as a core component of critical care nursing practice and a research priority, evidence about nurses' experiences after death in neonatal and paediatric intensive care is poorly understood.
Research Question: What is the experience of the nurse after death of a patient in neonatal and/or paediatric intensive care?
Method: Following registration with Open Science Framework, an integrative review of the empirical literature was undertaken.
