Objective·To investigate the information requirements of suicide attempters and their family caregivers, as well as the ability of family caregivers to take care of them. Methods·A total of 148 suspected suicide attempters from Department of Emergency of three hospitals in Shanghai and their family caregivers were enrolled in this study. Each group combined with one patient and one family caregiver. The patients and their family caregivers were interviewed by suicide module of the mini-international neuropsychiatric interview, homemade general information questionnaire, family caregiver task inventory, family adaptability and cohesion scale and information needs willingness questionnaire. Results·There were 84 cases (56.8%) of suicide attempters and 64 cases (43.2%) of non-suicide attempters according to the survey. Linear regression analysis showed that the family's ability of taking care of the patients is positively correlated with family intimacy and negatively correlated with the impact of such illness on the family (P=0.000, P=0.008).The scores of patients' information requirement about the status of disease, the treatment-related information, the way to obtain medical information, the cure probability, precautions after treatment, and self-care ability or support from family caregivers were higher than the expectation scores from their family caregivers. Equally, the scores of information requirement from the patients' family caregivers about above-mentioned information were also higher than the expectation scores from patients. Conclusion·The family care ability is related to the influence of the patients on the life of the family caregivers and family intimacy. For the patients and their family caregivers, there is a great demand for information about disease status and treatment situation, the way of seeking help, care information and so on. More information support and psychological assistance should be provided to suicide attempters and their family caregivers.

Objective To study the prevalence and risk factors for personality disorder (PD)outpatients attending in for psychiatric and psychological counseling in Shanghai. Methods 3075 subjects were sampled by systematic sampling method from outpatients in psycho-counseling clinics and psychiatric clinics in Shanghai Mental Health Center. Based on DSM- Ⅳ criteria, personality disorders were assessed by both questionnaires (personality diagnostic questionnaire, PDQ-4+) and interviews (structured clinical interview for DSM- Ⅳ Axis Ⅱ , SCID- Ⅱ ). Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the significant independent contributor to PD. Results 71.3% of the outpatients were found having pathological personality by using questionnaire of self rating PD scale. 982 outpatients (31.9%) met criteria for at least one personality disorder by using structured clinical interview. Younger age (OR= 1.8, 95% CI: 1.5-2.1 ), single or divorced (OR = 1.6, 95%CI:1.4-1.9), psychological counseling outpatients (OR=1.2, 95%CI: 1.1-1.3), mood and outpatients with neurosis disorders (OR = 1.7, 95%CI: 1.4-2.0) were more frequently assigned as personality disorders. Data from logistic regression analysis showed that patients of tender age, not nurtured and raised by their parents, with introvert characters were related risk factors of PD. Conclusion High prevalence rate of PD was found in this sample of Chinese outpatients, especially in thosepsychological counseling outpatients with mood or neurosis disorders. More attention should be paid to the recognition and intervention of PD in outpatients with mental disorders.

Objective To study the clinical effect and complications of MRI guided stereotactic radiofrequency lesion in patients with intractable schizophrenia. Methods Thirty-eight cases of intractable schizophrenia underwent MRI guided stereotactic stereotactic radiofrequency lesion for single target or combined target. According to 1990 standards from National Psychosurgery Cooperation, the therapeutic outcome was assessed 6 months after operation. In addition, pre-and post-operative brief psychiatric reacting scale (BPRS) scores were got by psychiatrists for evaluating the curative effect. Results Six months after operation, 8 cases were free from symptoms, 15 cases were significantly improved, 12 improved a little and 3 had no improvement. The effective rate was 92.1%. 15cases had mild transient post-operative complications, and all recovered within 2 weeks. Psychiatric evaluations of BPRS demonstrated that there were significant decreases in total score and factor scores of anxiety-depression, lacking-activity, disturbance, activation and hostile-suspiciousness after operation (P<0.05). Conclusions MRI guided stereotactic radiofrequsency lesion is accurate, safe and effective for intractable schizophrenia.

<p><b>AIM</b>To report the clinical experience during collecting sperm samples in the Fragile X syndrome (FXS) male patients.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Two different polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based methods were used for the molecular diagnosis of FXS. Sperm collection was done mostly according to the laboratory manual of the World Health Organization.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>We failed to collect sperm samples from five Fragile X subjects aged 18-60 years as a result of an unexpected erectile dysfunction (ED). Multiple examinations of the same subject at different times, and of different subjects from different provinces examined by different physicians, showed the same result consistently in all the five subjects.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Erectile reflex is an instinctive response in all healthy males. The absence of erection can be caused by hormonal, physical or neuronal malfunction. As hormonal profiles were reported to be generally normal in Fragile X men, we propose that an unknown physical factor or the neuronal circuit, or both, underlying the erection is compromised. The finding of this symptom in Fragile X patients may help better understand the clinical spectrum and pathogeneses of the disease.</p>
