Objective Through the investigation and analysis to "Chinese Medical Digest" and its relative periodicals to get a general idea of the survival and situation of these periodicals and to establish the pattern for their survival and development. Methods Such methods as telephone consultation, questionnaire survey, interview, and conference discussion were adopted to collect the relative information of medical digest periodicals and thus an analysis was made upon it. Results There were 18 kinds of "Chinese Medical Digest" periodicals originally. Of all these 18 kinds of the periodicals, 6 kinds are still publishing, 10 kinds have transferred its nature to first-hand literature periodical, and 2 kinds have ceased their publishment. Conclusion As a result of the computer, the network and the full text database development, the survival of medical digest periodicals are endangered. However, regarding to the different domain of subject, different reforming measures should be taken.

Objective To study the effects caused by novel antipsychotics quetiapine and aripiprazole on concentrations of platelet 5-HT in patients with schizophrenia,and to explore the relationships among the change of platelet 5-HT concentrations, psychiatric symptoms and the sensitivity of therapy. Methods Sixty-eight patients with schizophrenia meeting International Classification of Diseases-10 (ICD-10) were enrolled in the study. They were divided into quetiapine group(n=34) and aripiprazole group(n=34) according to the sequence of admis-sion. The platelet 5-HT concentrations were measured with high performance liquid chromatography method(HPLC-ECD). The positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) was used to evaluate the psychopathology. Treatment emergent symptom scale (TESS) was used to evaluate the side effects. PANSS,TESS were used at pre-treatment,the end of 4th and 8th week of treatment. Results The platelet 5-HT concentrations in two groups were higher af-ter 8 weeks treatment,but had no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). In quetiapine group, the platelet 5-HT concentration was (458.89±233.36) ng/10~9 at the pre-treatment, and (554.31±313.22) ng/10~9 at the end of treatment (t=1.709, P=0.099). In aripiprazole group, the platelet 5-HT concentration was (409.83±149.32)ng/10~9 at the pretreatment, and (421.27±245.96)ng/10~9 at the end of treatment (t=0.321, P=0.819). There was no difference between two groups(P>0.05). Stepwise regression analysis showed the changing rate of platelet 5-HT concentrations was positively correlated with the dosage of quetiapine (r=0.385, P=0.039).It was positively correlated with the decreasing rate of PANSS in aripiprazole group(r=0.391, P=0.040). Con-dusion The changes of psychiatric symptoms and the dosages of antipsychotics maybe have intimate relationships with platelet 5-HT concentrations in the course of medication.

Functional experiment plays an important role in understanding the mechanisms of diseases and principles of diagnosis and treatment. It requires students to master basic skills of func-tional operation, and complicated disciplines of functional alteration as well. Thus functional experi-ment needs to be an open course. The use of the virtual reality (VR) and real-time recording tech-niques provides potential for this exploration. By the way of real-time recording system, HD video of experiment operation is played, which helps guiding students to learn basic experiment skills; while based on the development status of VR technology, it is more applicable for learning by oneself, such as preview before the class and review for the test, and furthermore, the advantage of VR technique will be more apparent, if the key development focuses on experiment extensions to disclose more compli-cated functional alterations. This new technique helps to improve teaching effects of functional experi-ment.
