    Electrocution injuries are divided into high (HVI) and low voltage injuries (LVI). The aim of this study was to examine the sociodemographic data of cases where autopsy was performed because of death originating from electric shock, together with the clinical characteristics, scene of incident, electrical entry-exit wound localizations, pathological effects of electric shock on the body, and cause of death. A total of 4210 autopsies were retrospectively reviewed, and 49 had died from electrocution. The mean age of the cases was 29.2 +/- 16.04 years and 87.8% were males and 12.2% were females, 49% of the cases were the result of HVI and 51% the result of LVI. The presence of electrical entry and/or exit wounds were significantly higher in electrocution injuries due to home accidents than work accidents (p < 0.005). There was no statistically significant difference between the deaths caused by the direct effect of electric shock and those who died with LVI and HVI. The deaths of all the cases were accidental in origin, with no suicide or homicide. Deaths due to electrocution due to home or workplace accidents can be determined by examining the crime scene, witness statements, autopsy and histopathological findings.

    Comparison of Cardiac Wall Thicknesses and Coronary Artery Obstructions Between Deaths Resulting From Acute Myocardial Infarction and Deaths From Other Causes
    (Galenos Publ House, 2022) Altin, Ismail; Oruc, Mucahit; Celbis, Osman; Samdanci, Emine T. U. R. K. M. E. N.
    Objective: The risk factors for myocardial infarction (MI) can be separated into three general categories: non-modifiable factors, modifiable risk factors, and lifestyle. This study aimed to investigate whether or not there was any effect of cardiac wall thickness and coronary artery obstructions on acute MI.Methods: In this retrospective study of histopathological examinations of autopsies, two groups were formed. The first contained 28 cases diagnosed with acute MI and the second 28 cases with no heart pathology and the cause of death was reasons other than heart disease. The subjects in the two groups were similar in age, height, weight, and body mass index. The groups were compared in terms of the left and right ventricular wall thicknesses and the degree of obstruction of the right, left, anterior descending, and circumflex coronary arteries.Results: The mean left ventricular wall thickness was 1.461 +/- 0.2767 cm in the acute MI group and 1.386 +/- 0.2460 cm in the control group, with no statistically significant difference found between the two groups (p=0.289). A statistically significant difference in the degree of obstruction of the coronary arteries was found between the groups.Conclusions: Although the mean cardiac wall thickness was greater in the acute MI cases, no statistically significant difference was found between the two groups.

    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020) Celbis, Osman; Altin, Ismail; Ayaz, Nusret; Bork, Turgay; Karatoprak, Serdar
    Incest is specific type of sexual abuse. The aim of this study was to evaluate the sociodemographic data and examination findings of cases referred to our hospital as forensic court cases of incest, and to measure the effect on mental health disorders of the nature of the sexual abuse. Retrospective examination was made of the records of 40 cases of incest victims. Evaluation was made of the age, gender, incident suffered, the perpetrator, form of abuse, examination findings, and mental status. The cases comprised 36 girls and 4 boys. Without penetration sexual abuse was determined in 25 cases and with penetration sexual abuse in 15 cases. At least one mental health disorder was determined in 20 of the cases of simple sexual abuse and in 11 of the major sexual abuse type cases. The most frequently seen mental health disorder was post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in 21 cases. Mental health disorders were determined in 77.5% of the incest cases in this study, at a greater rate 80% in cases of without penetration sexual abuse than in cases of with penetration sexual abuse 74.33%. Therefore, all cases of incest must be followed up carefully without differentiation of without or with penetration abuse.

    An examination of the sociodemographic and psychiatric characteristics of children who have suffered penetrative and non-penetrative sexual abuse in Malatya, Eastern Turkey
    (Wiley, 2022) Dundar, Ahmet Sedat; Oruc, Mucahit; Altin, Ismail; Donmez, Yunus Emre; Celbis, Osman
    Penetrative and nonpenetrative sexual abuse can cause short- and long-term psychiatric problems in victims. This study aimed to examine the sociodemographic characteristics and psychiatric diseases of children in Malatya, eastern Turkey, according to whether the abuse was penetrative or nonpenetrative. A retrospective examination was conducted on the records of 115 cases of sexual abuse that had been referred to judicial authorities from January 1, 2012-July 30, 2019. The subjects were evaluated by a committee formed of 5-7 separate specialized department faculty members. It was determined that 51.3% (n = 59) of the cases had suffered nonpenetrative sexual abuse, and 48.7% (n = 56) had suffered penetrative sexual abuse. The majority of the perpetrators were known to the child from their close environment. A psychiatric diagnosis was made by the committee in 20.3% (n = 12) of the nonpenetrative cases and in 42.9% (n = 24) of the penetrative cases. There was a significant difference between penetrative and nonpenetrative sexual abuse in terms of psychiatric diagnoses. Of the cases of penetrative sexual abuse, 87.5% (n = 14) had attempted suicide. As a result, early diagnosis of sexual abuse, which has devastating effects on mental health in the early and late periods before it penetrates, can reduce the devastating effects on the child. For this reason, it is crucial for doctors, psychologists, social workers, and teachers who work with children to be informed about this issue.
