    Abstract: Sichuan is the biggest province of the People's Republic of China, with a broad area of over 560 thousand square km and a population of over 90 million people. The central portion of it is a big basin about 200 thousand square km in area, surrounded by many mountains with average altitude between 1,000 and 3,000 m above sea level. About 90 per cent of the population of the province lives in this area. The west portion of the province, called West Sichuan Plateau with average altitude of over 3,000 m, is relatively unpopulated. According to a census of a district of Zigong in 1973, 39.2 per cent of the population was below age 15 and 4.3 per cent above age 65. [In Britain (1975) the corresponding figures were 25 per cent and 14 per cent— Editor ].

    Abstract: Chinese herbal medicine has been used to treat millions of people with schizophrenia for thousands of years. Aims To evaluate Chinese herbal medicine as a treatment for schizophrenia. Method A systematic review of randomised controlled trials (RCTs). Results Seven trials were included. Most studies evaluated Chinese herbal medicine in combination with Western antipsychotic drugs; in these trials results tended to favour combination treatment compared with antipsychotic alone (Clinical Global Impression ‘not improved/worse’ n= 123, RR=0.19, 95% CI 0.1-0.6, NNT=6,95% CI 5–11; n =109, Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale ‘not improved/worse’ RR=0.78,95% CI 0.5-1.2; n =109, Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms ‘not improved/worse’ RR=0.87,95% CI 0.7-1.2; n= 109, Scale for the Assessment of Positive Symptoms ‘not improved/worse’ RR=0.69,95% CI 0.5-1.0, NNT=6 95% CI 4-162). Medium-term study attrition was significantly less for people allocated the herbal/antipsychotic mix (n =897, four RCTs, RR=0.34,95% CI 0.2–0.7, NNT=23,95% CI 18-43). Conclusions Results suggest that combining Chinese herbal medicine with antipsychotics is beneficial.

    Psychiatry in Traditional Chinese Medicine

    Abstract: Psychiatry in traditional Chinese medicine had a long evolution, but is now under re-evaluation. Modern psychiatry in China is based on Western psychiatry, and has a history of less than one hundred years since the first lunatic asylum was set up in Guangzhou (Canton) in 1898 (1, 2, 3) and the first generation of Chinese psychiatrists was trained by an American psychiatrist, Dr Lyman, in Peking Union Medical College, in the 1930s. The present paper is a brief introduction to psychiatry in traditional Chinese medicine.

    Abstract: A number of studies with conflicting results have examined the familiality of schizophrenia syndromes in Western populations. Aims The objective of this study was to determine, using clinical data from concordant sibling pairs, whether symptom dimensions and other clinical characteristics of schizophrenia show familial aggregation and are therefore potentially useful traits in genetic studies. Method We measured clinical and demographic features, and symptom dimensions of schizophrenia in 137 families from China who had two or more affected members with schizophrenia. Within-sibling pair correlation was assessed with intraclass correlation coefficient and kappa statistics. Results Global functioning, positive, disorganisation and dysphoric symptoms, premorbid schizotypal and schizoid traits, premorbid social adjustment, type and age at illness onset all showed significant evidence of familial aggregation. DSM–IV schizophrenia subtypes were also found to be familial. Conclusions This is the first study in a large non-European population to confirm that schizophrenia dimensions and clinical characteristics show significant familiality, implying possible heritability. This supports their use in the delineation of homogeneous subsets for future genetic studies.
