RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Three-dimensional (3-D) modelling can be a useful technical aid and we used it to reconstruct a homicide scene to corroborate the statement of an eyewitness. 3-D modelling of the bloodstain was conducted by Micro Smith Poser 11 and Autodesk 3-Ds Max software. The technique was found to be easily understandable by the police and judiciary in the interpretation of the sequence of the events of the crime. It refuted the eye-witness's account of the actions of the accused who was charged with murder and allowed collection, storage and retrieval of the patho-anatomic information about the deceased. CONCLUSION: The checks on the accuracy of statements given by eye-witnesses that can be provided by 3-D modelling may change the outcome of criminal investigations in future.

Child malnutrition is a critical global challenge. India alone is home to nearly 46 million stunted children, a third of the world's total. Supplementing locally-produced foods has been acknowledged as a sustainable strategy for combating child malnutrition. We used an established protein malnutrition (PM) model in young mice to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the SAVI-enriched diet as a food supplement to combat child malnutrition in India. Results indicate that feeding the SAVI-enriched diet improves body weight, lean muscle mass, bone, and immune health in PM young mice. Based on the results of our study in mice, we suggest future human trials to examine the supplement's potential benefits for humans.

Child malnutrition is a global public health challenge. A protein malnutrition (PM) model in young mice was established in this study. The efficacy of an ocean-based protein (APP) extracted from by-catch fish as compared to casein and soy on restoring body weight, bone growth, and immunity of PM mice was evaluated. Results show that supplementation of APP increases body weight, lean muscle mass, bone area, mineral content and density. APP supplementation increases spleen, thymus weight, and interlukin-6 production. In conclusion, APP is an alternative source of protein to effectively restore body weight, bone growth and immune function of PM mice.
