Tablet-based self assessment memory scale-revised (SAMS-R) evaluates memory functions for older adults by Hisatomo Kowa, Ryoko Kumagai, Yutaro Oki, Miki Imamura, Yuka Suzuki

“…The others were recruited from three regional cohorts of healthy older adults.ParticipantsThe total number of participants was 304 (20 of whom had AD or MCI), and the mean age was 71.2 years. 64% of the participants were women.MeasurementsWe used the logical memory subtest of the WMS-R as the standard for memory evaluation and assessed the relationship between this score and the SAMS score calculated by the software.ResultsThe 2nd SAMS score were higher than the 1st SAMS score in some participants, on the other hand, the intraclass correlation coefficient was good. Since the number of false recognition in the 16-word recognition test was higher in participants with lower LM II scores, we developed a new score to reflect the ratio of false recognition, SAMS-R, and we observed it has good correlation with LM II. …”

Seismic Behavior Experimental Study on the Joint of Circular Tubed Steel-Reinforced Concrete Columns by Yan Dai, Shaofeng Nie, Tianhua Zhou, Chengfeng Xue, Jingrong Peng

“…Based on the in-depth study of the failure characteristics, load-displacement hysteretic curve, skeleton curve, ductility index, load-strain hysteretic curve in the core area of the joint, energy dissipation performance, strength and stiffness degradation performance, and shear deformation in the core area of the joint during the whole loading process, the seismic behavior of this new type of joint was investigated. The results show that the new joint has reasonable failure characteristics, high bearing capacity, good ductility, excellent seismic energy dissipation performance, and strong resistance to strength and stiffness degradation, which meets the seismic design principle of “strong joint and weak component” and is suitable for the results with special requirements for seismic performance. …”
