Introduction: Anaesthesiologist medico-legal risk is well reported in the literature, however, there is little data regarding the medico-legal risk of family practice anaesthetists (FPAs) in Canada. We aimed to describe the expert criticisms from medico-legal cases involving family physicians providing care within the scope of anaesthesia.

Methods: Medico-legal cases involving FPAs providing anaesthesia-related care were identified from a national repository at the Canadian Medical Protective Association.

Introduction: Forensic Odontology plays a crucial role in medicolegal identification by comparing dental evidence in antemortem (AM) and postmortem (PM) dental records, including orthopantomograms (OPGs). Due to the complexity and time-consuming nature of this process, imaging analysis optimization is an urgent matter. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) are promising artificial intelligence (AI) structures in Forensic Odontology for their efficiency and detail in image analysis, making them a valuable tool in medicolegal identification.

International norms and domestic law-making and decision-making often underestimate the effects of psychological torture and the challenges posed by digital technologies like artificial intelligence, neurotechnology, and cybertechnology, such as cybertorture, used in interrogation techniques. This article focuses on how anti-torture legal measures, both in the international context and in their domestic implementation in China, respond to the contemporary challenges in the prevailing legal framework posed by the emergence of digital technologies and the effects of psychological torture. These challenges need to be considered from medico-legal perspectives in risk evaluation and remedies for the intertwined concept of neurorights and cybertorture and the effects of psychological torture, as well as introducing the argument that neurorights as an integral concept of human rights should be placed in the architecture of the human rights legal framework regarding cybertorture as a theoretical basis for legal reasoning in specific cases.

Molecular autopsy is a term employed to describe the investigation of the cause of death through the analysis of genetic information using biological samples collected post-mortem. Its utility becomes evident in situations where conventional medico-legal autopsy methods are not able to identify the cause of death, i.e.
