The purpose of the work is to identify challenging issues that arise during the forensic determination of the severity of harm caused to human health, which entailed permanent loss of general ability to work, by means of a content analysis of the existing regulatory documents, results of forensic medical examinations and the formulation of proposal...

The purpose of the work is to establish the relationship between the magnitudes of the electric current and clinical and physiological manifestations (outcome) on the basis of data from special literature. When performing forensic medical examinations, questions are often raised about the possibility of saving the life of an injured person in the p...

The aim of this work is to prove necessity of using the term «newborn» as common both in forensic medicine and general medicine (from the moment of birth till 28th day), to show legality of using the term «signs of recent birth», to demonstrate the importance of understanding not only the higher border in definition of neonatal period but its initi...

The aim of the study: Was to research the muscles response in children during three years of their life to mechanical stimulation with evaluation of the maximum time of its occurrence from 2 to 15 hours of the postmortem period. Assessment of the muscles response to mechanical stress is one of the methods for determining the time of death coming....

Some features of changes in the electrophysical properties of adipose tissue of animal origin in the postmortem period when working with direct-current sources are considered. Objective: Evaluate experimentally the possibilities of registering changes in the electro-physical properties of biological tissues using a direct current source when work...

Objective: Study of muscles response to mechanical irritation with the establishment of the maximum time of its occurrence for 2 to 15 hours of the postmortem period in children and adolescents who died at the age of 4 to 17 years. The the study data of 228 corpses of children and adolescents aged from 4 to 17 years with a precisely established ti...

Objective: The aim of this work was to study the response of muscles to mechanical irritation with the establishment of the maximum time of its occurrence within 2 to 15 hours of the post-mortem period in persons of mature, senile and elderly age with the development of an algorithm for its study. This work presents the data of a study of 345 corp...

The purpose of the work is to determine the advisability of using a skin-muscle flap as an imitator of a human body under a dense cotton target when modeling gunshot injuries resulting from ricochet of a bullet and buckshot when fired from a smooth-bore weapon through clothing. We conducted a ballistic experiment on the formation of gunshot injurie...

The aim of the work is to consider the problematic issues of forensic medical assessment of neurological manifestations of injure of the caudal spine. The current edition of the Medical criteria of characteristics doesn't contain clear qualification and interpretation of definitions of the health severity in patients with injury of the caudal spine...

This article reports the results of the analysis of the literature publications illustrating the current state of forensic medical expertise of gunshot injuries formed as a consequence of the interaction of the projectile with the obstacle. Also presented are the results of the experimental studies in this field and the prospects for their further...

The article provides a review of the literature on the estimation of time since death in the late postmortem period. The possibility of applying in practice the criteria given in the literature is considered.

The objective of the present study was to analyse the modern pathogenetic theories of the mechanisms underlying the development of the lesions in the gastric mucosa (the so-called Vishnevsky's spots) under effect of overcooling. It is emphasized that none of the currently available theories comprehensively accounts for different forms and scenarios...

The authors consider the variants of the formulation of forensic medical diagnosis and expert conclusions in the cases of death among the victims of nasal bone fractures and blood aspiration proposed by different researchers. They emphasize the inadmissibility of the formal logical approach in such situations and the necessity of pathogenetic analy...

The original theory of postmortem rigidity has been developed and substantiated based on the concept of postmortem muscular contracture. It is postulated that the unrestricted growth of Ca2+ concentration in myoplasm of contractile cells during the immediate postmortal period brings the actin-myosine complex to the force generation state without su...

The article describes the features of formation of "spots of Vishnevsky", in general hypothermia. It is proved that the wedge shape of hemorrhages in the gastric mucosa caused by swelling and discrepancy of the paries of stomach pits with the filling of forming wedge-shaped cavity with blood from the arrosive capillaries. It is noted that the dynam...

It is shown based on the historical and legal analysis that the designation of the child's status as a newborn infant throughout the period of its neonatal life till violent death "at or immediately after births" is the exclusive prerogative of the law-enforcement authorities. An original approach has been developed and recommended for the introduc...

The authors describe the morphological picture of skin and bone injuries inflicted by rat bites. Analysis of traces left by rat incisors is presented. Mechanism of their action and conditions for the appearance of injuries on human cadavers is considered.

This paper was designed to analyse the main experimental models of blunt cardiac trauma proposed during a period of more than 100 years beginning from the study of the Italian scientist Felice Meola dated to the 1870s till the present time. The analysis demonstrated that even a mild injury to the anterior chest wall in the projection of the heart m...
