Abstract

An autopsy or post-mortem is a medical examination procedure performed on a person's body after death to find out the cause of death or other medical conditions that can be identified from the deceased's body. This literature review aimed to describe a forensic autopsy review on the crime of murder. To be able to prove that a crime has been committed a forensic autopsy is used to prove whether the crime actually occurred or not. Forensic autopsy evidence is used to facilitate judges in making decisions and to expedite the course of proceedings in court so that the truth can be proven. Forensic autopsies are performed for criminal and legal investigation purposes. This autopsy can help identify the cause of a person's death, as well as gather evidence and information needed to assist the investigation process. The specific goals of a forensic autopsy are to study the cause of death of a person, gather evidence, identify victims, assist in criminal investigations and identify signs of violence. A forensic autopsy aims to reveal a cause of death for a person and for legal/court purposes.

Abstract

Barotrauma is a trauma or wound that occurs in the organs of the body due to sudden changes in air pressure around either change in pressure in the air or underwater. This literature review aimed to describe barotrauma from a traumatology perspective. In the case of barotrauma, the pathophysiology will follow Boyle's law. Namely, there is a relationship between the volume of gas in a closed room and the surrounding environment. Barotrauma that occurs when the pressure drops are called a squeeze. Squeeze events occur when there is a space filled with air and a membrane with a supply of blood flow from arteries and veins and experience a sudden change in pressure. Manifestations of barotrauma can also occur in the teeth, spine, and joints due to sharp and rapid changes in pressure. Damage to the teeth can occur because air is trapped in the teeth or because the teeth are sensitive to pressure. Damage to the spine and joints can occur because the pressure causes the vertebral discs to shift or damage the joint tissue. In conclusion, barotrauma is damage caused by pressure differences in the body, especially in the ears, lungs, and sinuses. Deaths from barotrauma are commonly associated with diving, especially freediving and gear diving.

Abstract

Sexual violence is usually a covert case where the witnesses are the victim and the perpetrator. For various reasons, even victims may not be able to provide complete information about the perpetrator or the identity of the rapist. With limited initial information, physical and biological evidence found from victims, crime scenes, and perpetrators will play an important role in the objective and scientific reconstruction of the incident. This literature review aimed to describe various sperm examination methods and medicolegal aspects of rape cases. Identification of one or more intact spermatozoa is conclusive evidence of the presence of semen, further confirming sexual contact. The conditions and the sperm collection area play an important role in determining the time interval between deposition and sample collection. Examination of spermatozoa can be done without staining and with staining. Examination of semen can be done by examination (tactile, visual, UV light, acid phosphatase reagent, zinc spot test, and baecchi stain).

Abstract

Domestic violence is a very specific problem because domestic violence occurs at all levels of society, starting from the status community social from low to high social status. Most victims of domestic violence are women, whether wives or daughters, and the perpetrators are usually husbands or other subordinates in the household. This literature review aimed to describe the review of medicolegal aspects of domestic violence. Types of violence can be in the form of acts of physical, psychological, or sexual violence and neglect of the household. Physical violence is a physical act committed against another person or group that results in physical, sexual, and psychological harm. The factors that cause violence against women in the household, especially those perpetrated by husbands against wives, are the existence of an unequal power relationship between husband and wife, economic dependence, violence is used as a tool to resolve conflict, and competition between husband and wife. In conclusion, domestic violence is a form of violence against women because victims of domestic violence are generally women. Violence against women means violence that violates women's human rights, which also means violence that violates human rights.

Abstract

Introduction: The capacity to predict an individual's age from biological evidence constitutes a significant advancement in forensic intelligence. DNA methylation, a stable epigenetic mark, provides a molecular basis for "epigenetic clocks." However, the operational reliability of these clocks necessitates rigorous validation across diverse biological samples and populations, particularly for challenging, low-template touch DNA evidence. Methods: Following approval from the Ethical Committee of CMHC Indonesia (No. 128/EC/CMHC/2023), we recruited 150 healthy Indonesian male volunteers aged 18-65. Semen, saliva, and high-yield standardized touch DNA samples were collected. DNA was extracted, quantified fluorometrically, and subjected to bisulfite conversion with efficiency controls. The methylation levels of a curated five-CpG panel (ELOVL2, FHL2, TRIM59, KCNQ1DN, C1orf132) were quantified using a rigorously controlled pyrosequencing workflow. Body-fluid-specific age prediction models were developed using multiple linear regression, validated with 10-fold cross-validation, and assessed for statistical assumptions including multicollinearity. Results: The models for semen and saliva demonstrated high predictive accuracy, yielding Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) values of 3.19 years (R²=0.94) and 3.55 years (R²=0.92), respectively. The model developed from high-yield touch DNA was less precise but still highly informative, with a MAD of 5.49 years (R²=0.85). All models satisfied the assumptions of linear regression, with Variance Inflation Factors below 2.5 indicating low multicollinearity. The 95% prediction intervals were narrowest for semen, reflecting its superior precision. Conclusion: This study validates a robust, targeted epigenetic panel for age prediction in a Southeast Asian population. We present highly accurate, tissue-specific models for semen and saliva, suitable for immediate consideration in forensic casework. The touch DNA model, while requiring cautious interpretation, provides a valuable framework for generating investigative leads from trace evidence. Our findings underscore the critical importance of tissue-specific modeling and provide a detailed methodological and statistical blueprint for the responsible implementation of forensic age estimation.
