  • Publication number: 20200374968
    Abstract: This application provides a method and an apparatus for switching an RRC state. The method includes: sending, by a communications apparatus, indication information to a network device, where the indication information is used to indicate that the communications apparatus requests to enter an RRC inactive state; after completing a registration process of an RRC connected state, receiving, by the communications apparatus, an RRC connection release message that is sent by the network device based on the indication information, where the RRC connection release message is used to indicate the communications apparatus to enter the RRC inactive state; and entering, by the communications apparatus, the RRC inactive state from the RRC connected state based on the RRC connection release message. In this way, energy consumption of the terminal-side communications apparatus can be effectively reduced, and network resource consumption can also be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20200345817
    Abstract: Neonatal seizure is different from adult seizure, and many anti epileptic drugs that are effective in adults often fail to treat neonatal seizure. Gluconic acid, a natural organic acid enriched in fruits and honey, and the glucose oxidase enzyme, is shown herein to potently inhibit neonatal epilepsy both in vitro and in vivo. Sodium gluconate is shown to inhibit epileptiform burst activity in cell cultures and protect neurons from kainic acid-induced cell death. Sodium gluconate also inhibited epileptiform burst activity in brain slices in a manner that was much more potent in neonatal animals than in older animals. Consistently, in vivo EEC recordings also revealed that sodium gluconate inhibited the epileptic seizure activity in a manner that was much more potent in neonates than in adult animals. Mechanistically, sodium gluconate inhibits voltage-dependent CLC-3 C1? channels both in neuronal cultures and in hippocampal slices.

  • Publication number: 20200100977
    Abstract: A lower limb training rehabilitation apparatus, comprising a weight reducing device, a pelvis supporting device, an exoskeleton device, a control system for controlling mechanical movements of the rehabilitation apparatus, and a treadmill used for walking of a patient. The rehabilitation apparatus hoists the upper body of the patient by means of the weight reducing device, then fixes the crotch of the patient to the pelvis supporting device, and fixes two legs of the patient to two mechanical legs of the exoskeleton device. A power source drives the pelvis supporting device to move up and down, so that the patient can move in the vertical direction; in addition, a sliding base of the pelvis supporting device can assist the patient in moving left and right, swinging left and right, and twisting. The mechanical legs and the treadmill together implement arbitrary movements in six degrees of freedom of the patient.
