Strangulation in Utero

Mrs P., set. 30, multipara, miscarried for the second time, on 29th March 1874.* Her last menstruation was on 17th December, consequently the foetus was about 3| months old. It was perfectly healthy and well developed. No reason could be assigned by the patient for the accident. On examining the foetus, I found the funis coiled twice round the neck, and under the coiling, it was tightly tied in...

Strangulation and Hanging

to the respiration from pressure applied externally to the air passages. The difference between the two lies in the manner in which the force producing this obstruction is applied. In strangulation the result is brought about by compression by the hand as in throttling, or by a rope or some such instrument, while in hanging the constricting force is the weight of the body which is more or less ...

Strangulation in Galaxy Groups

We use a cosmological chemodynamical simulation to study how the group environment impacts the star formation properties of disk galaxies. The simulated group has a total mass of M ∼ 8 × 10 M⊙ and a total X-ray luminosity of LX ∼ 10 41 erg s. Our simulation suggests that ram pressure is not sufficient in this group to remove the cold disk gas from a Vrot ∼ 150 km s −1 galaxy. However, the major...
