Objective To discuss the difference of handwriting characteristics of schizophrenia,neurosis and healthy people according to the gender,the age and the level of educated.Methods The handwriting data were obtained under the standard condition of handwriting,then the 24 Chinese characters handwriting image information were transformed into digital data using the quantitative characteristics of Chinese characters handwriting recognition system (CCQAS4.0),finally the data of 99 patients with schizophrenia and 131 patients with neurosis were analyzed.Results Many significant differences had been found in schizophrenia,neurosis and norm group (P <0.05,P<0.01),such as footer space((198.33±26.50) mm,(180.31±39.31)mm,(192.39±35.08) mm),average line spacing ((4.02 ± 1.68) mm,(5.34 ± 2.20) mm,(4.76 ± 2.00) mm) etc ; and there were also some important differences between the schizophrenia patient and the neurosis patient from different gender,age and education level in the 24 handwriting characteristics (P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusions (1) Significant handwriting characteristic differences have surely been found among the schizophrenia/neurosis patient and normal people.(2) Gender,age and education level have impact on the characteristic in the schizophrenia patient and the neurosis patient.

In recent years,with the development of the bio-psycho-social medical model,more and more attention has been paid to the relationship between psycho-emotional factors and liver.According to traditional Chinese medicine theory,the liver is mainly responsible for catharsis and regulating emotion,which is closely related to emotion.Epidemiological studies have shown that all kinds of liver diseases are accompanied by different degrees of mental disorders,and mental and emotional abnormalities may promote the occurrence of liver diseases and affect the prognosis.Liver and emotion have a common pathogenesis in pathology,involving the dysfunction of nervous,endocrine and immune systems.Based on the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine and modern medical research,this review analyzes the correlation between emotions and liver.At the same time,neurotransmitters,inflammatory cytokines,brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF),soluble epoxide hydrolase(sEH),intestinal microecology,hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal(HPA)axis and hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid(HPT)axis,which summarizes the potential mechanisms of liver disease complicated with emotional disorders,and provides certain reference value for future theoretical research and clinical treatment.
