[A comparative analysis of causes of deaths among children up to 14 years of age in the autopsy material of the Krakow Institute of Forensic Medicine, Collegium Medicum, Jagiellonian University in the years 1946-1973 and 1996-2005].
The analysis included 272 deaths, including 206 violent deaths and 66 death caused by diseases. The objective of the report was to carry out a comparative analysis of the material originating from the previous decade and data collected in previous years, based on the material of the Chair on disease associated-deaths in the years 1950-1959 (613 described cases) and violent deaths occurring in children in the same age group in the years 1946-1973 (to allow for data interpretation, the results originating from the period 1946-74 were averaged for a 10-year period, thus arriving at 334 cases).
