The objective of the present study was to determine the age of the unidentified corpses based on the investigation of the structure (wall width) of proximal epiphysis of the humeral bone. The results of analysis of the ongoing identification studies suggest the necessity of the development of the new methods for the determination of the human age including those based on the quantitative structural criteria for the long tubular bones. The original method proposed by the authors envisages the preparation of the stains from the frontal sawcuts of the humeral bone on the paper with the identification of the parameters of interest and calculation of the morphometric coefficients (MC). The significant differences in these coefficients suggest the possibility of using the proposed method for the purpose of identification expertise.

In spite of the commendable global Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) coverage in the last two decades, completion and timeliness of receipt of all the required doses are still below target. In Uganda, the 3 + 0 PCV regimen has been reported to have a steady decline in the completion rate and the reasons for the delayed completion are unidentified. This study aimed at assessing the influence of socio-demographic factors on delayed PCV completion among young children.
