Brinkmann et al. (103) have investigated different myelomonocyte subtypes (MRP8, MRP14, and 27E10) in the intraalveolar, alveolar-interstitial, and alveolar-intracapillary compartments of drowning and control cases and demonstrated a higher number of all subtypes in all compartments in the former, but with wide variation from one case to another. Local (hypoxia, acidosis, catecholamine reactions, interstitial edema, osmotic cytotoxicity) or systemic factors (increase in pulmonary arterial and capillary pressure) may trigger activation of these cells.
8%. Kringsholm et al. 7% of 91 drowning victims with a PM interval of less than 24 hours had a combined lung weight of less than 1000 g, but when considering a PM submersion time up to 1 week and the combined lung and pleural liquid weight, 13% of 131 drowning victims had a combined lung weight of less than 1000 g. Morild (69) found that only 6% of 133 drowning cases, most with a PM submersion time of less than 1 week, had a combined lung weight of less than 1000 g. In Copeland’s (65) and Morild’s (69) series, no significant differences are reported between salt- and freshwater drowning, whereas no data on the influence of water salinity are available in the study by Kringsholm et al.
