Vital reactions in thermal injury: a forensic review of histological, immunohistochemical and molecular markers

Abstract Distinguishing antemortem from postmortem thermal injury remains one of the most challenging tasks in forensic pathology, particularly in cases involving rapid death, extensive charring, or advanced tissue degradation. Classical macroscopic and histological findings prov...

Role of ERK1 and ANP as potential forensic biomarkers in hypothermia conditions: An experimental study

Diagnosing fatal hypothermia remains a forensic challenge due to the lack of specific postmortem markers. This study investigates the potential of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 (ERK) and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) as biochemical indicators in hypothermia-related d...
