[Prospects for determining age from human soft tissues (a morphometric study)].

Biometric studies of the aorta, endocrine glands (testes, prostate, and thyroid), and x-ray examination of the hands from 427 corpses of men and women aged 17-89 years helped formulate equations of paired and multiple linear regression for the diagnosis of age. The difference between biological and passport age is significant if the diagnosis is made on the basis of a single object or single sign. Complex use of several objects described by many signs is recommended; in this case the confidence intervals is no more than +/- 4.09 years.

[The forensic medical assessment of age-related changes in the thyroid].

The problem of assessing the age of unidentified corpses remains a pressing one. Relevant published data is reviewed in brief. This study was aimed at assessing the possibility of using quantitative morphometric parameters of thyroid involution for forensic medical evaluation. The method of using these parameters and their mathematical processing is described. An optimal model is selected for assessing the biological age from two parameters, the percentage and diameter of follicles; this model permits the diagnosis of age with an accuracy of 88%.
