✦ Synopsis

We studied the effect of temperature on median motor responses in a 41-year-old man with organophosphate intoxication. At 32°C, a normal amplitude compound motor action potential (CMAP) and a smaller spontaneous repetitive discharge (SRMAP) were present. With warming to 39°C, the CMAP amplitude decreased 20%, while the SRMAP amplitude decreased 33%. With cooling to 14°C, the CMAP amplitude decreased 9%, while the SRMAP became unobtainable. Possible mechanisms for these findings are discussed.

The effects of shrink fitting on the magnetic properties of iron cores are investigated in order to simulate the magnetic behavior of iron cores mounted in motor frames. Shrink fittings, of course, decrease permeability and increase effective magnetostriction and magnetic loss. It is well known that

It is unclear whether the high variance of electromyographic parameters measured in feeding teleost fishes reflects functionally significant motor variation that is under control of the fish, or functionally insignificant variation characteristic of EMG data. We addressed this issue by examining the
