Scope

The journal presents itself as a general title for clinical psychiatry, taking both clinical work on patients and populations and translational work on mechanism, and asking that a visible link between the two be maintained. The editorial office assigns responsibility by disease area, and the principal fields are:本刊的定位是「临床精神病学的通用刊物」：既收以患者与人群为对象的临床研究，也收解释疾病机制的转化研究，并要求两者之间保持可见的联系。编辑部按疾病领域分设责任编辑，收文重点包括：

• Clinical psychiatry: diagnosis and classification, course and outcome studies, evaluation of drug and psychological treatments, and research on services and health systems.临床精神病学： 诊断与分类、病程与结局研究、药物治疗与心理治疗的效果评价、服务与卫生体系研究。

• Epidemiology: incidence and prevalence studies based on registry data, risk factors and disease burden, and evaluation of population-level interventions.流行病学： 基于登记数据的发病率与患病率研究、危险因素与疾病负担、人群干预的效果评价。

• Genetics and translation: the genetic architecture of psychiatric disorders and polygenic risk, epigenetics, and mechanistic work running from genes to neural circuits.遗传与转化： 精神疾病的遗传结构与多基因风险、表观遗传、从基因到神经环路的机制研究。

• Neurobiology: brain imaging and neurophysiology, neurochemistry and neuroimmunology, and the bridge between animal models and human studies.神经生物学： 脑影像与神经生理、神经化学与神经免疫、动物模型与人体研究的衔接。

• Digital psychiatry: symptom monitoring from mobile and wearable data, digital intervention and remote care, and clinical validation of data-intensive methods.数字精神病学： 移动设备与可穿戴数据的症状监测、数字干预与远程诊疗、数据密集型方法的临床验证。
