中介素（IMD）对大鼠心肌细胞缺氧-复氧损伤的作用

目的探讨中介素（IMD）对大鼠体外培养心肌细胞缺氧-复氧损伤的作用。方法用大鼠H9c2心肌细胞株制作实验模型,样本分为对照组、缺氧-复氧组（缺氧1h、复氧30min）、IMD组（缺氧-复氧前30min加入10-7mol/L IMD）。采用MTT比色法检测心肌细胞活力;透射电镜观察细胞超微结构;激光共聚焦显微镜观察并测定细胞内钙离子浓度;流式细胞术测定细胞凋亡率。结果与对照组比较,缺氧-复氧组和IMD组细胞存活率显著降低,而IMD处理组明显升高细胞存活率（P〈0.01）;在形态学上,IMD预处理可明显减轻缺氧-复氧对大鼠心肌细胞的损伤;缺氧-复氧组细胞[Ca2＋]i荧光强度和细胞凋亡率比对照组显著升高,IMD预处理可明显降低上述升高的比率（P〈0.01）。结论 IMD对大鼠心肌细胞缺氧-复氧损伤有一定保护作用,提高心肌细胞存活率、减轻心肌细胞钙超载和抑制凋亡是其作用途径。     

A Safer Method for Body Restoration Following Autopsy

Restoration of autopsy incisions can result in inadvertent needle stick injury to the prosector, which can be difficult to prevent even with the use of personal protective equipment such as Kevlar cut resistant gloves. We present a new technique for closure of autopsy incisions using a commonly available commercial hardware tool, a hole punch with a lever enhanced action, combined with blunt probe sewing, which results in an esthetic and leak‐proof means of restoring cadavers. This technique is especially useful in cases which may pose blood‐borne infection risks to the prosector.     

A Comparison Between Digital Radiography,Computed Tomography,and Magnetic Resonance in the Detection of Gunshot Residues in Burnt Tissues and Bone

The radiological search for GSR is crucial in burnt material although it has been rarely tested. In this study, thirty‐one bovine ribs were shot at near‐contact range and burnt to calcination in an oven simulating a real combustion. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) were performed before and after carbonization and compared with former analyses with DR (digital radiography); thus comparing the assistance, the radiological methods can provide in the search for GSR in fresh and burnt bone. DR demonstrated the greatest ability in the detection of metallic residues, CT showed lower abilities, while MR showed a high sensitivity only in soft tissues. Thus, DR can be considered as the most sensitive method in the detection of GSR in charred bones, whereas CT and MR demonstrated much less reliability. Nonetheless, the MR ameliorates the analysis of gunshot wounds in other types of remains with large quantities of soft tissues.     

Fatal Child Abuse Presenting with Multiple Vertebral and Vascular Trauma

This case study involves the unexplained death of a previously healthy 30‐month‐old child. Reportedly, she was found unresponsive by her foster father following a 2‐hour nap. She was transported to the hospital and died in the emergency room of unknown causes. Blood drawn in the ER showed hemoglobin of 4.3 mg/dL. Postmortem skeletal survey, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, and retinal examinations were negative. The medical examiner assumed jurisdiction of the body. The autopsy showed massive retroperitoneal hemorrhage, transections of the abdominal aorta, and inferior vena cava, and complete tears of the anterior longitudinal ligament of the spine at C5/C6 and L1/L2 with diastases of the vertebral bodies at the corresponding intervertebral disk spaces. The case is believed to be extraordinary due to both the extent of injury that does not match the reported history and the mechanism of vertebral and vascular injuries.

目的：建立基于液基细胞学技术的血样羊水栓塞的诊断方法,并对其有效性进行研究。方法收集羊水栓塞者血液样本,分别用两种直接涂片法（上清涂片法、沉淀涂片法）和两种液基细胞涂片法（自动涂片法、人工涂片法）对血液样本中的羊水成分进行检测,对4种方法的羊水成分检出率进行比较。结果建立的两种液基细胞涂片法的羊水成分检出率（分别为84.6%、92.3%）明显高于直接涂片法（分别为53.8%、61.5%）。结论液基细胞涂片法可以提高羊水栓塞的检出率。     

线粒体缺氧性损伤及其法医学意义

线粒体是真核细胞中特殊的细胞器,主要功能是进行氧化磷酸化合成细胞活动所需的能量,机体所摄入的氧气绝大部分都在线粒体中被消耗。机械性窒息的精准诊断是法医病理学实践中的难点之一,法医病理学工作者一直致力于寻找一种可靠、敏感的标志物用于机械性窒息的确诊。线粒体对于缺氧环境极为敏感,其损伤标志物或可作为诊断机械性窒息的依据。本文旨在综述缺氧环境下线粒体损伤的研究进展,并探索将线粒体损伤标志物用于法医病理学实践的可能性。     

Sudden death in an adolescent due to undiagnosed classic Hodgkin lymphoma

Few cases of natural sudden death presenting as an undiagnosed lymphoma have been reported in the literature, especially in adolescents. Herein we provide a report of sudden death caused by undiagnosed classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). We describe an 18-year-old female who collapsed after several weeks of weight loss, decreased appetite, and dyspnea. At autopsy, a bulky mass arising in the mediastinum and neck compressed the esophagus and trachea, surrounded the great vessels, obliterated the pericardial sac, and infiltrated the myocardium. The lungs were collapsed and large pleural effusions were present. The tumor burden, which weighed at least 2710 g in aggregate, was entirely above the diaphragm. Microscopic examination of the masses showed features typical for nodular sclerosis cHL including large bands of sclerosis, numerous Hodgkin/Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells, and an eosinophil-rich mixed inflammatory cell infiltrate. Immunohistochemical stains showed the HRS cells to be uniformly positive for CD30 and CD15 and negative for CD3, CD20, CD45, and PAX5. This case exemplifies a rare sudden natural death due to previously undiagnosed cHL in a young patient.
