Calibration of Arrhenius Constitutive Equation for BC/6063Al Composites in High Temperatures.

Isothermal-compression tests of BC/6063Al composites containing 20 vol.% BC were performed using a Gleeble-3500 device, at strain rates ranging from 0.001 s to 1 s and deformation temperatures ranging from 723 K to 823 K.

[Executive dysfunction in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and its correlation with P300].

Objective: To explore the changes of executive function in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and analyze its correlation with P300 event-related potentials.

Methods: Fifty patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and 30 age, gender and education-matched healthy control subjects were assessed by neuropsychological tests, including Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), working memory, verbal fluency, trail making, digit span, digit symbol and Stroop color-word interference to detect P300 event-related potentials.

Results: In temporal lobe epilepsy group, the scores in MoCA, verbal and non-verbal working memory, verbal fluency, digit span, digit symbol and Stroop test were lower than those of the normal control group.

[Application of VEEG+SEMG in diagnosing different motor seizure types].

Objective: To explore the value of video-electroencephalography plus surface electromyography (VEEG+SEMG) in providing theoretic rationales for clinical diagnosis of different motor seizure types and differentiating the application value of paroxysmal diseases.

Methods: A total of 116 suspected and repetitive motion epileptics underwent VEEG+SEMG from 2009 to 2012. According to their clinical features, different muscles were selected to record electromyography (EMG) under different activations and stimulations (bodily movement and posture activation, touching, sound stimulus, tapping tendons and arms straight test, etc) and monitor their seizure states.
