“…In the current study the personal assaults was the most common cause (29.03%), and it was comparable to other studies [14][15][16][17], [19], [20] , While other studies [18], [21] found that, fall was the most frequent cause. The variability in frequency of the cause of the trauma, depend on the location in which the study has been performed, and also perhaps due to cultural level, difference lifestyles, and the specific community characteristic, as the violence including personal assaults, becoming increasing in our society probability as result from instability in security conditions in this community, so the reflection of that, it made the our society becoming more violent, at the time of the current study performed.…”

“…The topography of the nasal pyramid according the age group and the gender, the results as follows; in the age group (0-10), most common nasal pyramid topography was no deformity and it's found in (80%),while in the reminder age groups, the most common nasal deformity was sided deviation, as follows; in age group (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20) it was (63.15%), in age group (21-30) years, it was (50%), in age group (31-40), it was (77.77%), as it shown in table 3. The relationship between the mechanism of the trauma and the topography of the nasal pyramid, it reveled that; regarding falling as the etiological factor, the most common type of nasal pyramid topography was no deformity, in the reminder etiologies, the most common nasal pyramid topography was sided deviation, as follows; in case of accident apart from fall there were 16 patients (47.05%), in personal assault; there were 20 patients (55.55%), in road traffic accident, there were 16 patients (53.33%) ,and in sport injury; there were 8 patients (80%) as shown in table 4.…”

Objectives: To evaluate the relation between the mechanism of nasal trauma and age, gender, occupation, the residency, and nasal fracture, among Iraqi patients. Patients and methods: Descriptive study enrolled 124 patients attended ENT outpatient department at AL-Yarmouk Teaching Hospital in Baghdad/Iraq, from May 2015 to May 2016 complaining of recent nasal trauma, in whom the information data as age, gender, mechanism of trauma, occupations, residency, and topography of the nasal pyramid were collected and their correlation was evaluated and studied. Results: The frequency of the nasal trauma was detected as following; males (61.29%) and females (38.7%), the most common age group was 21-30 years (38.7%), the most common cause was personal assault (29.03%), and the fracture nasal bones was found in (82.25%), from those (60.78%) were sided deviation, and (35.29%) had central depression, regarding the occupations; (32.25%) were students, while for residency; (51.61%) where came from urban area. Conclusions: The nasal trauma was detected high in males, young adults, students, those where living in urban area, and the personal assault was the most frequent etiological factor. The frequency of nasal bones fracture was also high, for which sided deviated was found more than central depression.

Identifying and Interpreting Domestic Violence in Archaeological Human Remains: A Critical Review of the Evidence

This research reviews and discusses the clinical and social science datasets used to identify victims of domestic violence (DV) in the archaeological record. Clinical sources are skewed by law enforcement and cost issues, dominated by Western female data and suggest that DV is a well-documented form of abuse. Social science sources and perspectives, having arisen from activist movements, are more spatiotemporally diverse in breadth and perspective, and challenge the notion that DV is universal and well-documented, but are biased because they rely upon self-survey reports. Palaeopathology and bioarchaeology have adopted a clinical approach to DV, relying on a pattern of injuries (focussed on the head, face and neck), without critically evaluating whether such datasets are appropriate to the spatiotemporal and socio-cultural diversity present in the archaeological record. A case study evaluating the injury patterns in 964 post-medieval adult females from London (England) demonstrates that the majority of injuries that conform to the clinical model have robust alternative explanations, and only a small minority of females have injuries that may have been produced by interpersonal violence, not necessarily DV.In conclusion, the review highlights that the perspectives of the elderly and male victims are currently neglected in research, and evidence for injury, especially that which may reflect abuse, necessitates interpretation within a 'web of violence' approach, as DV does not occur in isolation from other violence in a community. It challenges the 'check-list' approach to interpretation and suggests that a closer examination of fracture mechanism combined with injury patterning may be a more informative approach with which to identify DV victims of both sexes and identifies the need to integrate other health data into the interpretation of violence and abuse. Overall, it concurs with the minority of clinical and forensic literature that it might not be possible to differentiate DV and assault victims.

“…Nasal bone fractures are the most common fractures of the face, accounting for more than 50% of all facial fractures in adults . Their aetiology tends to differ depending on the patients domicile, but is usually caused by blunt trauma to the midface, that is fall, violence, traffic accident or sport injuries …”
