At present, the death cases of simple asphyxiant gas acute poisoning are increasing sharply. Common asphyxiant gases in death cases include nitrogen, helium, carbon dioxide, methane, propane, laughing gas, etc. Simple asphyxiant gas has no affinity for biological matrices and escapes quickly, which puts forward new requirements for autopsy procedures, selection and collection of samples, laboratory analysis and identification. This paper reviews the research and development process of death cases caused by simple asphyxiant gas acute poisoning and put forwards the collection and analysis strategy of the samples in such cases. The most valuable biological samples in such cases should be lung tissues associated with the airways, followed by brain tissue and cardiac blood. Gaseous samples from the esophageal cavity, tracheal cavity, pulmonary bronchi, gastric and cardiac areas are also recommended as valuable samples. In the case of postmortem examination, the gas should be injected into gas sample bag directly. Biological materials such as tissue and blood should be directly sealed in head-space vials and analyzed by using the headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

Neonatal encephalopathy represents a broad neurological syndrome which encompasses newborn foals presenting a variety of non-infectious neurologic signs and/or abnormal behaviors in the immediate postpartum period. It is recognized as the most predominant neurological disorder in neonatal foals. Prognostic factors can guide clinicians in medical decision-making, aiding in the establishment of survival probabilities.

Article Synopsis
- Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a significant health issue in neonates, particularly in developing regions like Ethiopia, with this study particularly focusing on its incidence and predictors in intensive care settings.
- A retrospective analysis of 634 neonates revealed a 14.9 per 1000 incidence rate of AKI, with various factors such as sepsis, perinatal asphyxia, and specific drug use (like gentamicin) identified as statistically significant predictors.
- This research highlights the need for increased attention to neonatal care in low-resource settings to help reduce morbidity and mortality associated with AKI.

Introduction: neonatal death is a global issue in both developed and developing countries. Evidence on determinants of neonatal mortality is scarce, particularly in the pastoralist and agro-pastoralist areas of Ethiopia, including the Somali region. This study aimed to identify the determinants of mortality among neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care units at selected public hospitals, in the Somali region, eastern Ethiopia.

Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to create prediction models for maternal and neonatal morbidity related to vaginal birth after a previous caesarean section or elective repeat caesarean in Dutch women, highlighting the need for better counseling based on individual risks.
- - Researchers analyzed data from 2,592 women with prior caesarean sections and found a 12.7% rate of maternal or fetal complications, with higher overall morbidity in those opting for trial of labor (TOL) compared to elective repeat caesarean (ERCS).
- - The prediction models developed showed poor performance, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve below 0.6, preventing accurate validation of the models prior to addressing overfitting issues.
