Research Abstract |
Major issues in forensic autopsy include the analysis of a causal relationship between trauma and fatal outcome, which requires objective diagnostic evidence to support or supplement circumstantial evidence and clinical records. In conventional morphological pathology, however, it is difficult to detect functional deterioration in the death process and assess the findings with relevance to clinical findings. Therefore, the present study project comprehensively analyzed the pathophysiology after trauma using pathological, biochemical, molecular biological and immunohistochemical findings in routine casework to prepare criteria for autopsy diagnosis and severity evaluation of post-traumatic shock and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), followed by assessing the validity of these criteria. These analyses provided objective criteria for assessment of acute responses in fatal traumas, subacute shock, and protracted shock, involving SIRS, multiple organ dysfunction and sepsis.
