Death by food. Forensic science, medicine, and pathology, 2018, Volume: 14, Issue:3 Although death from food is not an uncommon finding in forensic facilities worldwide, the range of underlying lethal mechanisms and associated conditions that should be sought at the time of autopsy is quite disparate. Deaths may occur from i) infectious agents including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, cestodes, nematodes and prions; ii) natural toxins including amanita toxins, tetrodotoxin, ciguatera and scombroid; iii) anaphylaxis; iv) poisoning; v) mechanical issues around airway and gut obstruction and/or perforation; and vi) miscellaneous causes. Food-related deaths are important in terms of global mortality, and thus autopsies need to be comprehensive with full ancillary testing. Medicolegal matters may involve issues concerning likely exposure to infectious agents, possible foods ingested, the declared content and possible components of food, the significance of toxicological analyses, and aspects of duty of care in cases of café coronary syndrome and gastroenteritis while in care. Topics: Airway Obstruction; Anaphylaxis; Esophageal Perforation; Food; Food Hypersensitivity; Food Microbiology; Foodborne Diseases; Forensic Medicine; Humans; Mediastinal Diseases; Obesity; Pica; Prader-Willi Syndrome	2018

The use of negative practice for the control of pica behavior. Journal of behavior therapy and experimental psychiatry, 1993, Volume: 24, Issue:3 The treatment of a 33-year-old female disabled by mental retardation and Prader-Willi syndrome who exhibited pica is described. Negative practice was administered following each occurrence of the target behavior, that is, biting off and chewing on inedible objects. Data were collected within a reversal design. The results indicated that pica was reduced to a near zero level. Follow-up data collected after 7 months while the procedure was continued revealed a sustained suppression of pica.
