The article presents a case from the practice of the Serpukhov department of SBIH MR “Bureau of FME”, when the study of the corpse of a young girl as a result of a fall from a great height was used the method of computed tomography of the corpse (virtual autopsy), followed by X-ray anatomical comparison of the results.

We assumed that the different exposure times of the cotton target in the water would not change the morphology and location of the shot products. To confirm our assumption, a series of experiments was carried out, which consisted in exposure of cotton targets in distilled water at different time intervals, followed by their extraction and study. The study showed that the morphology and location of the shot products on a dry target after soaking in water with a duration of up to one day does not change.

The aim of the work was to study polymorphism of microsatellite STR loci vWA, CSF1PO, TPOX, TH01, D16S539, D13S317, D7S820 included in CODIS, ESS and ISSOL standard core loci for Armenian population. Correspondence of frequencies of examined loci to the Hardy – Weinberg equilibrium was revealed. To distinguish genetic variability of STR loci we examined vWA, CSF1PO, TPOX, TH01, D16S539, D13S317, D7S820STR loci of Armenian population residing in the territory of Armenia and compared with data of Caucasian-American population presented in the Promega Technical Manual Allele Frequencies for Caucasian-Americans protocol. This comparative study revealed significant differences for tested populations. The results indicate that this set of polymorphic STR loci provides some polymorphic information. Therefore, prior to the usage of new DNA markers included in CODIS, ESS and ISSOL standard core loci into forensic casework, as well as DNA paternity and relationship testing, studies should be performed on Armenian populationto establish polymorphism of microsatellite STR loci specific for Armenian population.

The article analyzes the mortality of minors in the Volgograd region over the past five years. The number of deaths of children and adolescents in subsequent years is predicted, with the definition of further directions for studying the mortality of minors in other regions of the Russian Federation. With the help of the found mathematical model, a point and interval prediction of the mortality of children and adolescents in the Volgograd region was made and it was shown with what probability in 2018 and in 2019 one could expect the resulting number of deceased persons of the studied age. Further directions for studying the mortality of minors with the aim of reducing the preventable losses of the younger generation, improving the demographic situation in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation have been determined.

The article presents a comparative analysis of the procedural position of the expert in criminal and civil proceeding. There are considered main differences and similarities of the rights, duties and responsibilities of the expert which regulated by the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, the Civil Law Code of the Russian Federation, the Federal Law «About state forensic expert activity in the Russian Federation», the Order of organization and production of forensic medical examination in the state forensic expert institutions of the Russian Federation.

This article is about an important event – the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the forensic medical service of the Moscow Region. The author describes the moments of the anniversary celebration of this organization, which has become a significant event in the history of Russia’s largest state forensic institution.
