[Indirect molecular genetic predisposition factors to increased thrombosis in sufferers with mechanical lower limb trauma]. / Nepryamye molekulyarno-geneticheskie faktory predraspolozhennosti k povyshennomu tromboobrazovaniyu u poterpevshikh s mekhanicheskoi travmoi nizhnikh konechnostei.

THE AIM OF THE STUDY: Was to selectively determine the occurrence frequency of polymorphic alleles in candidate genes of hereditary predisposition to increased thrombosis (T) in persons with mechanical trauma of musculoskeletal system (MS), who died from pulmonary artery thromboembolia (PATE). A total of 48 deaths from PATE cases of sufferers with MS trauma. The character of single nucleotide polymorphisms carriage (SNPC) in 13 candidate genes of hereditary predisposition to increased T (in genes, responsible for the synthesis of plasma proteins of the hemostatic system, platelet factors affecting tension of vessel wall and folate cycle) was determined. It has been established that the most common «mutant¼ alleles are found in PAI-1 -675 5G/4G, MTHFR 677 CT and MTRR 66AG genes, and in 87.8, 53.85 and 75.0% of the analysed cases, respectively. The consideration of SNP carriage character in the genes of predisposition to increased T is required for the full expert judgement on the causality between a mechanical trauma and PATE.

[Forensic expert evaluation problems of early and late complications of interventional methods of treating coronary heart disease (systematic literature review)].

This article focuses on current concepts of ischemic heart disease, its interventional treatment, pathomorphology of early and late postoperative complications, and forensic aspects in evaluation of restenosis of a stented blood vessel.

[Molecular genetic basis of sudden cardiac death in the young with cardiomyopathy of various origins]. / Molekuliarno-geneticheskie osnovy vnezapnoi serdechnoi smerti lits molodogo vozrasta s kardiomiopatiei razlichnogo geneza.

This paper provides a review of the modern literature devoted to the problem of forensic medical interpretation of the molecular genetic research of the young who died suddenly. The authors attempted to draw a parallel between the morphological markers of different variants of cardiomyopathy as the most common disease in sudden death at a young age and the association with genetic mutations in the genes responsible for the synthesis of sarcomer proteins, desmos and membrane channels. Based on the results of the analysis, further research is proposed to improve the accuracy of forensic diagnosis in cases of young deaths.
