Abstract

The study examines the activity index and exponential growth of authors analysed during 1989-2016. The result of the study found that publications growth between 11 (0.26%) in 1989 and 447 (10.76%) in 201. RGR shows a fluctuates trend between 0.02 and 1.02 in 2005, 2006 and 1991 respectively. Complete twenty three years the research could be observed that RGR less than 1. DC between 0.64 and 0.94. Further, overall DC measured 23.08 throughout study period. It witnessed CI values measured between 0.04 and 5.56 in the year 2014 and 2009 respectively. The CC values measured between 9.87 in 2016 and 6.15 in 1995 and 1995, the whole CC observed as 230.26 over period of study.

Summary

Introduction

When one speaks or thinks about it, one associates it immediately with death, autopsies and related problems (Kaye, 1992) This is only part of legal medicine, as new approaches and sub specialties are realized because of the advances in medical sciences and socio-political changes around the world. The origin of Forensic Medicine remains lost in a distant past, whenever the principles of medical sciences met those of law and justice (Kovacevic, 1998). Perhaps it began with the Code of Hammurabi (1792-1750 BCE), which imposed sanctions for errors in medical and surgical practices.
