Objective To systematically analyze the current status of judicial adjudication in medical-injury cases involving shortened survival,identify core issues in forensic identification and adjudication,and propose targeted improvements.Methods We searched China Judgments Online for 88 effective judgments and conducted quantitative and qualitative analyses across four dimensions:patient baseline characteristics,forensic identification procedures,trial process,and adjudicative outcomes.Results The judicial support rate for shortened survival claims was 25％.Marked practice divergences were observed:only 28.4％of cases explicitly cited authoritative survival statistics as the scientific basis for opinions;four compensation-calculation approaches were identified with inconsistent standards;the second-instance reversal rate reached 20％.Conclusion It is necessary to develop a unified technical specification for forensic identification of shortened survival,establish scientifically grounded compensation-calculation models,and strengthen multidisciplinary collaboration mechanisms to enhance the credibility of adjudication.

Objective: To investigate the hearing loss and speech disorders in the elderly, to analyze the risk factors of the elderly deafness, as well as to provide reference for the clinical research of the elderly deafness. Methods: From March 2016 to March 2018, 913 elderly people, who were tested for hearing and speech disorders, were examined by a unified questionnaire to investigate the demographic data of the subjects and the related factors of deafness, and the hearing and speech recognition tests were carried out. According to the hearing loss, the hearing impaired group was divided into the hearing impaired group (500, 1 000, 2 000 and 4 000 Hz, the average hearing threshold>25 dBHL) and the non hearing impaired group (the average hearing threshold of the four frequencies ≤25 dBHL), and then the single factor analysis and the unconditional Logistic regression analysis were used. Finally, the risk factors of senile deafness were analyzed. Results: Of the 913 elderly subjects in the survey, 389 (42.61%, 389/913) had no hearing impaired, 345 (37.79%, 345/913) were mild hearing impaired, and 149 (16.32%, 149/913) had moderate hearing loss. Twenty-six patients were severe hearing loss (2.85%, 26/913); 4 patients had severe hearing loss (0.44%, 4/913). Among the 524 hearing-impaired elderly, there were 244 speech-recognition disorders (46.56%, 244/524), of whom 106 were mild hearing-impaired, accounting for 30.72% (106/345), 108 were moderate hearing loss, accounting for 72.48% (108/149), 26 were severe hearing loss, accounting for 100% (26/26), and 4 were the profound hearing loss, accounting for 100% (4/4). Statistical analysis showed that the age, job status, history of hypertension, history of hyperglycemia, and smoking history were independent risk factors for senile hearing loss (P<0.05). Conclusions High incidences of hearing and speech recognition obstacle are found in health examination for the elderly patients. Noise exposure, age, history of hypertension, high blood sugar, and smoking history are high-risk factors for senile deafness, therefore, prevention and rehabilitation programs are urgent to be developed.
