Objective To investigate the pathological features and significance of m yocardial contraction band necrosis in sudden cardiac death. Methods Using HE and PTA Hstaining, the distribution sites and pathological features of m yocardial contraction band necrosis were observed. The data were analyzed accord-ing to the extent of necrosis. Results The locations, pathological features and the extent of necrosis were sim ilar in different sudden death cases. The locations were related with sites of m yocardial dam age. The papillary m uscles of left ventricular were m ost occurred, followed by the anterior wall of left ventricular. In the sudden death cases caused by stress cardiom yopathy, the extent of m yocardial contraction band necrosis was lighter than the others. Most cases were predom inantly level 1, the others were level 2. Conclusion Used as the diagnosis basis of acute m yocardial ischem ia, the m yocardial contraction band necrosis has im portant significance to determ ination of death.

Objective T o prom ote the further research on body stature estim ation and the innovative ap-plications based on the distances betw een the anatom ical landm arks on body torso surface. Methods A specification for the collection of distances betw een the anatom ical landm arks on body torso surface w as established. T he data of 933 cases of adult population in Y angtze R iver D elta region w ere collected. M ultiple linear regression m ethod w as used to statistical analyse and establish the regression equation of stature estim ation. Results A regression equation about 5 variables including gender (x1), cervical verte-brae-coccyx line (x2), sterna-pubis line (x3), distance betw een acrom ion and iliospinale anterius (x4) and shoulder breadth (x5), and stature (y) w as established, y=105.406+5.414 x1+0.436 x2+0.286 x3+0.225 x4+0.193 x5. Conclusion T he m ethod is suitable for the rapid, sim ple and accurate estim ation of stature for the forensic experts.

Cranial defect restoration is popular in forensic anthropology,craniofacial surgery,and archaeology.Virtual 3D restoration developed fast and has a broad prospect since computer assisted method applied in cranial facial defect restoration based on CT scans.In recent years,with the continuous development of computer algorithms and software,the 3D cranial facial defect restoration methods have been increasing.The purpose of this paper is to summarize the computer-aided 3D cranial facial defect restoration based on CT scans published in the past two decades and to research the current progress.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of different cultivation modes on the yield of Gentiana crassicaulis and its microbial diversity and secondary metabolite content in the rhizosphere soil. MethodWith G. crassicaulis of different cultivation modes and its rhizosphere soil as the research objects， the composition of bacterial and fungal communities， dominant bacteria， and differential microorganisms in the rhizosphere soil were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing technology. HPLC was used to determine the content of iridoids in G. crassicaulis with different cultivation modes. ResultCompared with plastic film mulching， planting without mulch and intercropping of peony， white kidney bean， potato， and corn increased the yield of fresh products by 16.11%-17.68%， 22.48%-26.34%， 29.37%-32.19%， 34.82%-36.57%， and 35.34%-39.71%， respectively， and increased the yield of dry products by 19.75%-23.17%， 25.86%-29.32%， 30.18%-34.94%， 35.22%-39.87%， and 39.72%-43.73%. The total content of four iridoids， including gentiopicrin， loganic acid， sweroside， and swertiamarin， increased by 10.17%-37.83%， 5.93%-47.44%， 9.09%-28.84%， and 10.71%-28.57%， respectively. The diversity of bacterial and fungal communities in the rhizosphere soil increased significantly （P<0.05）. The relative abundance of pathogenic bacteria such as Sordariomycetes， Leotiomycetes， Tremellomycetes， Eurotiomycetes， Fusarium， and Cladophialophora decreased， and the proportions of beneficial bacteria such as Proteobacteria， Acidobacteria， and Actinobacteriota increased and they gradually became the dominant bacteria. ConclusionDifferent cultivation modes can affect the yield of G. crassicaulis and its microbial diversity and iridoid content in the rhizosphere soil. Cultivation without mulch and intercropping patterns have certain advantages， which can provide theoretical references for the planting of G. crassicaulis.
