Study on development strategy of medical and biological techniques correlating with medical protection against New Concept Weapons / 第三军医大学学报

Objective To evaluate the key role of development of medical and biological techniques correlating with medical protection against New Concept Weapons(NCWs) and put forward a development strategy in medical protection against NCWs. Methods Data on the present medical techniques protecting against NCWs were obtained by tracing references. On the basis of analyzing and studying the obtained data, an evaluation was made by consulting experts, system analysis, scientific selection, clustering analysis and policy analysis. Results The correlation coefficients correlation, indexes and scores in the present progress of 36 techniques were determined. Furthermore, the evaluation was made. Conclusion Different developing strategy should be taken in accordance with the important and the present research on medical and biological techniques correlating with medical protection against NCWs. This study will give us some advice on protecting against NCWs in medicine.

A BRIEF INQUIRY INTO HIGHTECH WEAPON INJURIES / 解放军医学杂志

Solving the problem of weapon injuries is of primary importance in military medical research. This article aims at presenting an inquiry into hightech weapon injuries in terms of the following: (1)classify hightech weapons into special, hightech conventional and new concept weapons, and expound their characteristics; (2)demonstrate from different angles the pressing necessity to step up researches on special (nuclear, chemical and biological) weapons; (3)discuss the types and injurious effects (high speed projectiles, war heads with numerous shrapnels and cluster bomb, multiple killing factors and high casualty inflicting power) of the everlastingly emerging hightech conventional weapons, and multiple injuries, and combined injuries produced thereby; (4)probe into new concept weapons, mainly the beamed (laser, microwave and infrasound) and non lethal weapon injuries; (5)bring up the question of confrontation of hightech weapons′ in the space in the future; (6)explore the tactics in four levels to confront hightech weapons, and research on medical protection against hightech weapon injuries in terms of basic sciences, medical logistics, and medical equipments.
