Determination of human body burden baseline date of platinum through autopsy tissue analysis. (1/2516)

Results of analysis for platinum in 97 autopsy sets are presented. Analysis was performed by a specially developed emission spectrochemical method. Almost half of the individuals studied were found to have detectable platinum in one or more tissue samples. Platinum was found to be deposited in 13 of 21 tissue types investigated. Surprisingly high values were observed in subcutaneous fat, previously not considered to be a target site for platinum deposition. These data will serve as a human tissue platinum burden baseline in EPA's Catalyst Research Program.  (+info)

Wasting of the small hand muscles in upper and mid-cervical cord lesions. (2/2516)

Four patients are described with destructive rheumatoid arthritis of the cervical spine and neurogenic wasting of forearm and hand muscles. The pathological connection is not immediately obvious, but a relationship between these two observations is described here with clinical, radiological, electrophysiological and necropsy findings. Compression of the anterior spinal artery at upper and mid-cervical levels is demonstrated to be the likely cause of changes lower in the spinal cord. These are shown to be due to the resulting ischaemia of the anterior part of the lower cervical spinal cord, with degeneration of the neurones innervating the forearm and hand muscles. These findings favour external compression of the anterior spinal artery leading to ischaemia in a watershed area as the likeliest explanation for this otherwise inappropriate and bizarre phenomenon.  (+info)

Functional integrity of mitochondrial genomes in human platelets and autopsied brain tissues from elderly patients with Alzheimer's disease. (3/2516)

To determine whether pathogenic mutations in mtDNA are involved in phenotypic expression of Alzheimer's disease (AD), the transfer of mtDNA from elderly patients with AD into mtDNA-less (rho0) HeLa cells was carried out by fusion of platelets or synaptosomal fractions of autopsied brain tissues with rho0 HeLa cells. The results showed that mtDNA in postmortem brain tissue survives for a long time without degradation and could be rescued in rho0 HeLa cells. Next, the cybrid clones repopulated with exogenously imported mtDNA from patients with AD were used for examination of respiratory enzyme activity and transfer of mtDNA with the pathogenic mutations that induce mitochondrial dysfunction. The presence of the mutated mtDNA was restricted to brain tissues and their cybrid clones that formed with synaptosomes as mtDNA donors, whereas no cybrid clones that isolated with platelets as mtDNA donors had detectable mutated mtDNA. However, biochemical analyses showed that all cybrid clones with mtDNA imported from platelets or brain tissues of patients with AD restored mitochondrial respiration activity to almost the same levels as those of cybrid clones with mtDNA from age-matched normal controls, suggesting functional integrity of mtDNA in both platelets and brain tissues of elderly patients with AD. These observations warrant the reassessment of the conventional concept that the accumulation of pathogenic mutations in mtDNA throughout the aging process is responsible for the decrease of mitochondrial respiration capacity with age and with the development of age-associated neurodegenerative diseases.  (+info)

beta-amyloid load is not influenced by the severity of cardiovascular disease in aged and demented patients. (4/2516)

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: This study was conducted to analyze the association between reported risk factors for Alzheimer's disease, apolipoprotein E epsilon4 allele, and cardiovascular disease and neuropathological changes essential for the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. METHODS: Our data are based on clinical and postmortem evaluations of a cohort of nondemented (n=118) and demented (n=107) individuals. A cardiovascular index was calculated at autopsy to estimate the extent of cardiovascular disease. Neuropathological lesions such as senile/neuritic plaques, neurofibrillary tangles, beta-amyloid load, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, and the load of paired helical filaments were determined. RESULTS: The aforementioned neuropathological lesions did not show any positive significant correlation with cardiovascular index. In contrast, the extent of Alzheimer's lesions was significantly higher in those nondemented and demented patients carrying the apolipoprotein E epsilon4 allele than in those without this allele. CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrate that the apolipoprotein E epsilon4 allele, but not cardiovascular disease, indeed influences the extent of Alzheimer's lesions seen in the brain tissue of demented patients as well as asymptomatic controls.  (+info)

Opportunistic Pneumocystis carinii infection in red-bellied tamarins (Saguinus labiatus). (5/2516)

P. carinii infection in red-bellied tamarins (Saguinus labiatus), born and maintained in a laboratory breeding colony, was examined by histopathologic examination postmortem. P. carinii cysts were detected in 6 of 10 red-bellied tamarins examined, by using Grocott's, toluidine blue O and immunostaining with avidin-biotin complex using antisera for rat-, simian-, and human-P. carinii. The results obtained from the present studies imply that P. carinii may be an important pathogen in this species.  (+info)

Comparison of prenatal ultrasound and postmortem findings in fetuses and infants with congenital heart defects. (6/2516)

OBJECTIVE: Detection of congenital heart defects by prenatal ultrasound examination has been one of the great challenges since the investigation for fetal anomalies became part of the routine fetal examination. This prospective study was designed to evaluate the concordance of prenatal ultrasound findings with autopsy examination in a population consisting of both referred women and non-selected pregnant women. DESIGN: Criteria for inclusion were an ultrasound examination at the National Center for Fetal Medicine and an autopsy performed during the years 1985-94. Results from the ultrasound and autopsy examinations were systematized into categories depending on the degree of concordance. RESULTS: Of 408 infants and fetuses with developmental anomalies, 106 (26%) had congenital heart defects. In 63 (59%) of these 106 cases, the heart defect was the principal reason for the termination of pregnancy or the cause of death. Excluding five cases with a secundum atrial septal defect, there was complete agreement between the ultrasound examination and the autopsy findings in 74 (73%) of 101 cases. In 18 cases, there were minor discrepancies between ultrasound and autopsy findings. The main diagnosis was thus correct in 92 cases (91%). From the first time period (1985-89) to the second (1990-94), the detection rate of all heart defects increased from 48% to 82%. CONCLUSION: This study confirms a good correlation between ultrasound and autopsy diagnoses in fetuses and infants with congenital heart defects. A significant improvement in the detection of heart defects occurred from the first time period to the second and was probably due to increased experience and technical advances.  (+info)

Thromboatheromatous complications of umbilical arterial catheterization in the newborn period. Clinicopathological study. (7/2516)

Severe catheter-related thromboatheromatous lesions were found at necropsy in 33 of 56 infants who had umbilical arterial catheters passed during life. In infants dying within 8 days of insertion of the catheter, varying degrees of thrombosis of the aorta and its major branches were seen. With increasing thrombosis and aging of the thrombus, fatty deposits were seen first within the thrombus, and then in the intima and media. In addition there was evidence of proliferation of medial smooth muscle cells and of disruption of the medial architecture below the thrombus, characterized by the presence of abundant mucopolysaccharide. In infants who survived longer, varying degrees of organization of the thrombus could be traced, leading eventually to raised fibrous plaques with lipid and occasionally calcification. The lesions in the older infants were similar in many respects to experimental thromboatheromatous lesions produced in rabbits, and to some lesions of artheroma occurring spontaneously in humans. A wide variety of embolic phenomena were found, with features suggesting asynchrony of embolic episodes. The presence of thrombotic lesions could not be related to birthweight, Apgar scores at 1 and 5 minutes, age at catheterization, duration of catheterization, underlying disease process, age at death or the presence of hypothermia, acidosis, or anomalies in coagulation tests. There is a need for less hazardous methods of monitoring arterial oxygen tension.  (+info)

Short left coronary artery trunk as a risk factor in the development of coronary atherosclerosis. Pathological study. (8/2516)

The relation between the length of the main left coronary artery and the degree of atherosclerosis in its branches was studied by postmortem examination in 204 subjects aged 20 to 90 years. The findings suggest that in cases with a short main left coronary artery the atherosclerotic lesions in the anterior descending and circumflex branches appear earlier, progress faster at higher levels of severity, and lead more frequently to myocardial infarction, than in cases with a long left coronary artery trunk. In cases over the age of 50 years, where disease is expected to have developed, it was shown that the degree of atherosclerosis in the left anterior descending and circumflex branches was inversely related to the length of the main left coronary artery. The correlation coefficients were -0-527 and -0-428, respectively, and in either case a test for zero correlations was significant (P less than 0-001). The possible changes in the haemodynamic and mechanical conditions associated with the variations of the anatomical pattern of the coronary arteries and their influence in the development of atherosclerosis are discussed. It is suggested that the length of the main left coronary artery is a congenital anatomical and possibly hereditary factor influencing the rate of development of atherosclerosis in the branches of the main left coronary artery.  (+info)

An autopsy is a medical examination of a dead body to determine the cause of death. It involves a thorough examination of the body, including internal organs and tissues, to identify any signs of disease, injury, or other conditions that may have contributed to the person's death. During an autopsy, the body is typically opened and the organs and tissues are removed and examined under a microscope or other specialized equipment. The pathologist who performs the autopsy will also take samples of tissue and fluids for further analysis in the laboratory. Autopsies can be performed for a variety of reasons, including to determine the cause of death in cases where the death was unexpected or unexplained, to investigate criminal or suspicious deaths, or to provide information for medical research. They are an important tool for advancing medical knowledge and improving public health.

In the medical field, the cause of death is the underlying reason or condition that directly led to a person's death. It is the primary factor that initiated the chain of events that ultimately resulted in the person's demise. The cause of death is typically determined by a medical examiner or a doctor who has been authorized to issue a death certificate. This determination is based on a thorough examination of the person's medical history, physical examination, and any relevant test results. The cause of death can be either an acute or chronic condition, and it can be related to a variety of factors, including illness, injury, genetics, environmental factors, or lifestyle choices. Some common causes of death include heart disease, cancer, stroke, respiratory failure, and accidents.

Coroners and medical examiners are officials who are responsible for investigating deaths that occur suddenly or unexpectedly, or deaths that are deemed suspicious. They are also responsible for determining the cause of death and making a ruling on whether the death was natural, accidental, or the result of foul play. Coroners are typically elected officials who serve in a county or district, while medical examiners are appointed by the government and serve at the state or local level. They are responsible for conducting autopsies, which involve examining the body and its organs to determine the cause of death. They may also review medical records, interview witnesses, and consult with other medical professionals as part of their investigation. The findings of a coroner or medical examiner can have important legal and medical implications, and their reports may be used in court proceedings or to inform medical treatment decisions.

In the medical field, "Death, Sudden" refers to an unexpected and rapid loss of life, typically occurring within minutes to hours of the onset of symptoms. Sudden death can be caused by a variety of factors, including heart attacks, strokes, sudden arrhythmias, severe allergic reactions, and other medical emergencies. It is often characterized by the absence of warning signs or symptoms, and can occur in both young and old individuals. Sudden death is a serious medical emergency that requires immediate attention and intervention to prevent further harm or loss of life.

Postmortem changes refer to the physical and chemical changes that occur in the body after death. These changes can be observed during a postmortem examination, also known as an autopsy, and can provide important clues about the cause and time of death. Some common postmortem changes include: 1. Rigor mortis: This is the stiffening of the muscles that occurs after death due to the buildup of lactic acid. 2. Algor mortis: This is the cooling of the body after death due to the lack of blood flow and metabolic activity. 3. Livor mortis: This is the discoloration of the skin and tissues due to pooling of blood in the lowest parts of the body. 4. Decomposition: This is the breakdown of the body's tissues and organs due to the action of bacteria and other microorganisms. 5. Autolysis: This is the breakdown of the body's tissues by the body's own enzymes. 6. Putrefaction: This is the advanced stage of decomposition, characterized by the production of gases and the release of foul-smelling fluids. Understanding postmortem changes is important for forensic pathologists and other medical professionals who are investigating deaths and determining the cause and manner of death.

In the medical field, burial refers to the process of disposing of a deceased person's remains through the placement of the body in a grave or tomb. This process is typically carried out after a person has passed away and their body has undergone the necessary procedures, such as embalming or cremation. Burial can be performed in a variety of ways, including traditional ground burial, entombment in a mausoleum, or scattering of ashes in a designated area. The specific method of burial may vary depending on cultural, religious, or personal preferences. In addition to the physical act of burial, there may be various medical procedures involved in preparing the body for burial, such as the removal of medical devices or the administration of medications to preserve the body. The medical professionals involved in these procedures may include doctors, nurses, morticians, and funeral directors.

"Abortion, Eugenic" is not a commonly used term in the medical field. However, it could potentially refer to the use of abortion as a means of eugenics, which is the practice of selectively breeding individuals to improve the genetic qualities of a population. In the past, eugenics was used to justify the forced sterilization of individuals deemed "unfit" or "undesirable" by society, such as those with disabilities, mental illness, or criminal records. Some proponents of eugenics also advocated for the selective termination of pregnancies based on the genetic characteristics of the fetus, with the goal of improving the overall genetic quality of the population. However, the use of eugenics is widely considered unethical and has been largely abandoned in modern medicine. Abortion is a legal medical procedure that is typically performed to terminate a pregnancy for a variety of reasons, including the health of the mother or the fetus, or as a means of family planning. It is not used as a means of eugenics.

In the medical field, the brain is the most complex and vital organ in the human body. It is responsible for controlling and coordinating all bodily functions, including movement, sensation, thought, emotion, and memory. The brain is located in the skull and is protected by the skull bones and cerebrospinal fluid. The brain is composed of billions of nerve cells, or neurons, which communicate with each other through electrical and chemical signals. These neurons are organized into different regions of the brain, each with its own specific functions. The brain is also divided into two hemispheres, the left and right, which are connected by a bundle of nerve fibers called the corpus callosum. Damage to the brain can result in a wide range of neurological disorders, including stroke, traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and epilepsy. Treatment for brain disorders often involves medications, surgery, and rehabilitation therapies to help restore function and improve quality of life.

Fetal diseases refer to medical conditions that affect the developing fetus during pregnancy. These conditions can be genetic, infectious, or caused by environmental factors. Fetal diseases can range from minor abnormalities that do not affect the baby's health to life-threatening conditions that require medical intervention. Some common fetal diseases include chromosomal disorders such as Down syndrome, neural tube defects such as spina bifida, and congenital heart defects. Fetal infections such as rubella, cytomegalovirus, and Zika virus can also cause fetal diseases. Environmental factors such as exposure to certain medications, alcohol, or tobacco can also increase the risk of fetal diseases. Fetal diseases can be detected through prenatal testing, such as ultrasound, amniocentesis, or chorionic villus sampling. Early detection and intervention can help improve the outcome for the baby and the mother. Treatment options may include medication, surgery, or other medical interventions, depending on the specific condition and severity.

In the medical field, bereavement refers to the emotional and psychological response to the loss of a loved one, such as a spouse, parent, child, or friend. Bereavement is a natural and normal process that involves a range of emotions, including sadness, anger, guilt, and confusion. The grieving process can vary from person to person and can take different lengths of time. Some people may experience a period of intense grief immediately after the loss, while others may feel a sense of numbness or detachment. In the medical field, bereavement is often treated as a mental health issue, and healthcare professionals may provide support and counseling to help individuals cope with their grief. This can include therapy, medication, or other interventions designed to help individuals manage their emotions and adjust to their new reality.
