The Singapore Medical Journal (SMJ) has in the past 55 years reflected the phenomenal socioeconomic progress of Singapore. Publications in the pre-independent years were mainly on diseases like cholera, diphtheria, leprosy, tetanus and worm infestation. In the new millennium, the research papers included molecular genetics, health economics, obesity, Internet medicine, cancer, cosmetic surgery and palliative medicine. The annual SMA Lecture published in the SMJ provides an ethical compass for doctors to remind them of primum non nocere.
《新加坡医学杂志》（SMJ）在过去55年里反映了新加坡惊人的社会经济进步。独立前几年的出版物主要是关于霍乱、白喉、麻风病、破伤风和蠕虫感染等疾病。在新千年，研究论文涵盖了分子遗传学、卫生经济学、肥胖症、网络医学、癌症、整容手术和姑息医学。发表在《新加坡医学杂志》上的年度新加坡医学协会讲座为医生提供了一个道德指南，提醒他们首要的是不伤害患者。
