混合痔在临床上广泛采用吻合器痔上粘膜环切钉合术(procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids,PPH)治疗,PPH术后尿潴留是较常见的并发症之一,多数经过心理疏导、物理疗法等干预措施后缓解,少数经导尿处理后恢复,因术后尿潴留导致膀胱憩室者罕见.尿潴留行导尿操作是临床上非常普通且安全的诊疗措施,虽然导尿操作的刺激、牵拉或疼痛可诱发心脑血管不良反应,但也罕见报道;因PPH术后并发尿潴留并膀胱憩室,行导尿操作后发生猝死的案例更是未见报道.本文报道1例此类法医病理学检验案例,以期引起临床和法医鉴定中重视和警惕.

Medical disputes in China are historically poorly documented. In particular, autopsy-based evaluation and its impact on medical malpractice claims remain largely unstudied. This study aims to document autopsy findings and medical malpractice in one of the largest cities of China, Wuhan, located in Hubei Province. A total of 519 autopsies were performed by the Department of Forensic Medicine, Wuhan University School of Medicine, Wuhan, China, over a 10-year period between 2004 and 2013. Of these cases, 190 (36.6%) were associated with medical malpractice claims. Joint evaluation by forensic pathologists and clinicians confirmed that 97 (51.1%) of the 190 claims were approved medical malpractice cases. The percentage of approved malpractice cases increased with patient age and varied according to medical setting, physician specialty, and organ system. The clinico-pathological diagnostic discrepancy was significantly different among various physician specialties (P = 0.031) and organ systems (P = 0.000). Of those cases involved in malpractice claims, aortic dissection, coronary heart disease, and acute respiratory infection were most common. Association between incorrect diagnosis and malpractice was significant (P = 0.001). This is the first report on China's medical malpractice and findings at autopsy which reflects the current state of health care services in one of the biggest cities in China.
•This manuscript aims to describe the effects of neuropeptide Y on primary rat cardiomyocytes.•The set of experiments includes analysis of cell viability, ATP content and mitochondrial membrane potential using commercially available analysis kits, mitochondrial structure by TEM and mRNA and protein levels of a potential mediator of the effects, PGC-1alpha.•The rationale for these experiments is that NPY has been linked to cardiomyopathies, which in turn are often characterized with mitochondrial dysfunction.•It is still unclear if increased NPY in cardiomyopathies is beneficial or harmful, and what are the direct effects of NPY on cardiomyocyte mitochondrial function.•Therefore, the data is potentially of interest.
Objective:To investigate cases of medical tangle in resent years in the Third grade A‐level hos‐pitals in some city and analyze the factors affacting the occurance of medical tangles .Methods:Analyze 211 re‐cords of medical tangle happened in three Third grade A‐level hospitals in some city during the period from January 2011 to December 2013 retrospectively ,take the cases which ,based on 1∶2 ,were involved the con‐current same kind of cases in charged by different doctors from the same section as the control group .Collect the basic data ,the data of patient party and the data of the medical party .Make single factor analysis and multiple factor analysis on the factors which may affect the occurance of medical tangle with χ2 test and logis‐tic regression model .Results:The single factor analysis revealed that medical costs ,education degree ,jobs , types of medical insurance of the patient partys ,medical service attitude and actions of the medical staff were the factors w hich resulted in the medical tangles ;multiple factor analysis of logistic regression hinted that medical service attitude and actions of the medical staff were the independent factors which resulted in the medical tangles .Conclusion:Medical service attitude and actions of the medical staff are the independent fac‐tors w hich result in the medical tangles and they are also the protective factors .

In forensic identification,the blood alcohol concentration detection has to be conducted to get the evidence for drunk driving.Based on the fact that alcohol can be decomposed in human body and there are lots of factors that may affect the physicochemical properties of alcohol, this paper aims to review those factors that may influence the blood alcohol concentration detection, including blood specimen collection and preservation,detection methods, body corruption,diffusion of alcohol in the stomach and disease of the Decedent.It is suggested that all these factors should be considered in future forensic cases to detect accurately blood concentration of drivers.

The compound crossbow can be used to eject syringe-like dart loaded with poisonous solution. Succinylcholine (Sch) is a short-acting neuromuscular blocker medically used to achieve complete relaxation of muscle for a good intubation condition. Without the help of an artificial respirator, intramuscular injection of a large dose of Sch can paralyze the respiratory muscle and result in the receiver's death. In this paper, we present the homicide case of a young male killed by Sch from a syringe-like dart ejected by a compound crossbow. The subcutaneous and muscular hemorrhages observed around the entry were more severe than that caused by a medical injection. Additionally, other autopsy results showed the external appearance of a pinhole, general asphyxia signs and pathological findings which were not characteristic. The discovery of a syringe-like dart at the scene is the critical clue and reason for analyzing for Sch, which is commonly used to load syringe-like dart to paralyze and steal dog in the countryside of China.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between the expression of connexin 43(Cx43) in myocardial cell of the left ventricle for patient with hypertensive heart disease(HHD) who died suddenly. Methods: Twenty autopsy cases were selected from the Department of Forensic Medicine of Wuhan University during 2009-2011.The cases were divided into two groups(HHD group and control group) with 10 cases in each group.After conventional pathological examination,Cx43 in the left ventricular myocardium of each case was detected with immunohistochemical staining.Results: In HHD group,the Cx43 positive staining were found in the cytoplasm or side-side connection of ventricular myocardial cell,and the positive area and average optical density of Cx43 positive particles were significantly decreased as compared with that respectively of the control group(both P 0.01).Conclusion: The expression of myocardial Cx43 is significantly decreased in sudden-death cases with hypertensive heart disease,which suggests the decreased expression of Cx43 may have relation with sudden death of hypertensive heart disease.
Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of multi-slice spiral CT(MSCT) for rib fracture with digital radiography(DR) in comparison,and further to assess its potential application value in forensic identification.Methods:For 80 patients with rib fructures,th frontal and oblique DR film and MSCT with varied 3D-reconstruction techniques such as volume rendering(VR),maximum intensity projection(MIP),multi-planar reformation(MPR) and thin axial images were analyzed retrospectively.The rates of indenified,suspected and missed diagnosis in rib fracture were compared between MSCT and DR.Results:65 cases with 188 fractures were correctly diagnosed by DR,with the indenified diagnosis rate 73.44%(188/256),the suspect diagnosis rate 7.44%(19/256) and the missed diagnosis rate 19.14%(49/256).79 cases with 253 fractures were correctly diagnosed by MSCT,with the indenified diagnosis rate 98.05%(251/256),the suspect diagnosis rate 1.17%(3/256) and the missed diagnosis rate 0.78%(2/256).There is significant statistic difference between DR and MSCT(P 0.01) for diagnosis of rib fracture.Conclusion:The display rate of rib fracture with MSCT 3D-reconstruction was much higher than that of DR.DR can be used as a routine screening examination,and MSCT can provide further definite diagnosis and reliable evidence for clinical forensic identification.
