Full Text: J For Sci44, 677.pdf Abstract: The objective of this paper is to develop an overview of William R. Maples’ distinguished career in forensic anthropology. Influences central to his career choice and the historical development of his professional life are described. A discussion of his key contributions to the fields of primatology and forensic anthropology are then summarized. Included in this discussion is a chronological survey of citations of Maples’ works derived from the Social Sciences Citation Index. Integral to this summary of Maples’ life are his varied and intriguing case studies.

Full Text: 2007\J For Sci52, 1177.pdf Abstract: This research delineates the historical evolution of death in custody. A retrospective, exploratory analysis of 145,425 cases from Maryland’s Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, occurring from 1939 to 2004, was conducted. Two hundred and two custodial deaths were identified and subsequently examined relative to time, agency, decedent characteristics, and cause and manner of death. Results indicate that there have been substantive changes in custodial deaths over time. Cardiovascular disease was the most frequent cause of death from the 1930s to the 1970s, except for the 1940s, when syphilis and tuberculosis took precedence. Asphyxia, the predominant cause of death in the 1980s, reflected an increase in suicidal hangings. Emerging in the 1980s, drug intoxication deaths were prevalent in the 1990s and 2000s. Sudden unexplained deaths involving violent behavior, the use of multiple restraints, and drug intoxication were not identified until the 1980s, coinciding with periods of increased cocaine abuse nationally.

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 96, 397-404. Abstract: The objective of this study was to determine the effect of different parameters on a predictive model of pulmonary function for elementary school children in an area of low air pollution in Taiwan. Healthy children aged 7 to 12 years from three elementary schools in low-air-pollution areas (Da-Chen, Mai-Liau and Tai-Si) participated in the study. A total of 836 children (423 boys and 413 girls) were included in the study. During summer vacation, each child underwent a physical examination including a screening spirometry. A questionnaire regarding respiratory symptoms and indoor air pollutants was also completed by the children’s parents. Air monitoring showed that the levels of outdoor pollutants were relatively low. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed with FVC (forced vital capacity) and FEV1 (forced expiratory volume in 1 sec) as dependent variables. Gender, age, height, weight, technician and indoor air pollution parameters were the independent variables. The results showed that gender, height, weight and technician were the most significant variables for predicting FVC and FEV1. The various indoor air pollution parameters seemed to have no influence on the pulmonary function of children, except that mildew in bedrooms mildly decreased FEV1. Regression analysis showed that all the pulmonary function parameters measured had a positive correlation with height, whereas weight correlated only with certain parameters. Because both indoor and outdoor air pollution was relatively low, we suggest that this model could be used as a basic predictive model of pulmonary function for elementary school children in Taiwan.

Full Text: -1959\J Fra Ins169, 385.pdf Abstract: The attthor points out the important bearing that the purity of our water supply has upon its utilization for drinking purposes or in various industries, and the services of the chemist in determining its availability for these purposes. Attention is also called to the serious problem arising in connection with the steadily increasing pollution of our streams and tidewaters by sewage, factory waste and refuse of all kinds, and how chemistry can be of service in the solution of this problem.

Full Text: -1959\J Fra Ins223, 43.pdf Abstract: The rigorous solution for cylindrical gravitational waves is given. For the convenience of the reader the theory of gravitational waves and their production, already known in principle, is given in the first part of this paper. After encountering relationships which cast doubt on the existence of rigorous solutions for undulatory gravitational fields, we investigate rigorously the case of cylindrical gravitational waves. It turns out that rigorous solutions exist and that the problem reduces to the usual cylindrical waves in euclidean space.
