[Suicide in Bavarian prisons (author's transl)].

The rate of suicides of prisoners in Bavaria from 1945-1974 was investigated. It was shown that only for prisoners awaiting trial was the rate higher than in the normal population or of soldiers of the Bundeswehr. A much higher risk of suicide was found for the first day of imprisonment. The most common method was by hanging in solitary confinement. A sure prevention by confinement with more prisoners is not possible.

On the estimation of lay-time by measurements of rigor mortis.

Measurements of the torgue to overcome rigor mortis on the legs of 101 male human cadavers at 5 degrees C are reported. There seems to exist an upper limit, which is dependent on the lay-time, above which no value occurs, but below which every value may be found. By calculating the 90% tolerance limits for lay-times grouped at 12-hourly intervals, this upper limit was found to decrease exponentially with lay-time. This may be used for the estimation of maximum lay-times from rigor mortis measurements.

[The legal status of medical students during practical training in hospitals (author's transl)].

The most important change in the qualification regulations in force at the present time is the provision for the practical training of medical students, which occurs not only in university hospitals but also in "teaching hospitals" outside the university. The realization of the practical year is problematic according to the actual conditions because of the difficulties and financial investment necessarily associated with it. Furthermore, the legal status of the students during the practical activities differes from that of earlier medical assistants, because according to the present law the legal provisions for employment and social insurance such as the determination of division of labour, working hours and remuneration and also for third party and accident insurance do not apply.

[Measurements of rigor mortis on human skeletal muscles in situ (author's transl)].

The torque, necessary to break the rigor mortis of arms and legs at 17 female and 35 male cadavers stored at a temperature of 4 degrees C was determined. The values show differences between male and female cadavers to an extent, that both groups have to be treated separately. Relating the torque to the diameter or the cross section of the limb does not eliminate the differences: Frequently considerable differences between left and right limbs were obtained, however, without preference of one side over the other. There is no direct functional relationship between post mortem time and the intensity of r.m., but the values occasionally allow estimates on the maximum time post mortem.
