In this study we investigated the krotaphion-sphenion distance (K‑S distance) in the pterion region of German, Euro-American, African-American and Rwandan skulls of modern individuals from the nineteenth to the twenty-first century to look for statistically significant differences in sex and ancestry. We found a statistically significant sex-specific difference in the K‑S distance, which was greater in male skulls than in female skulls for both sides of the skull. Our study also showed that there is a statistically significant difference in the K‑S distance between the four populations studied. Landmarks and morphometric parameters measured in our investigations, which were not used for the present examination were provided to the software program Fordisc for its reference data to enhance the range of its usability for identification of unknown skulls or partial skulls of European individuals.}, language = {en} } @article{BohnertMonoranuSiauwetal.2020, author = {Bohnert, S. and Monoranu, C. - M. and Siauw, C. and Al-Tinawi, F. and Bohnert, M.}, title = {T{\"o}dliche Hirnmassenblutung infolge Vitamin-K-Mangels bei einem 9 Wochen alten S{\"a}ugling}, series = {Rechtsmedizin}, volume = {30}, journal = {Rechtsmedizin}, issn = {0937-9819}, doi = {10.1007/s00194-020-00387-z}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-232475}, pages = {175-179}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Intrakranielle Blutungen sind im S{\"a}uglingsalter seltene, aber lebensbedrohende Ereignisse.

Die klinische Diagnostik umfasst hinsichtlich der Blutungsgenese neben Sonographie und MRT als apparatives Verfahren auch eine Fundoskopie sowie laborchemische Analysen, insbesondere der Gerinnungsparameter. F{\"u}r die Blutgerinnung ist das fettl{\"o}sliche Vitamin K essenziell: Fr{\"u}he, klassische und sp{\"a}te Vitamin-K-Mangel-Blutungen werden dabei unterschieden. Um ein geh{\"a}uftes Wiederauftreten von Vitamin-K-Mangel-Blutungen bei Neugeborenen und jungen S{\"a}uglingen zu verhindern, bedarf es einer hinreichenden Aufkl{\"a}rung der Eltern.
