Concordance of Shape Risk Scale, a new pressure ulcer risk tool, with Braden Scale [PDF]
AbstractThe occurrence of pressure ulcers was examined in a cross‐sectional study in 23 health care facilities and in home care involving 548 patients. The screening of pressure ulcer risk was assessed simultaneously using the Braden Scale and the new Shape Risk Scale (SRS), and the results were compared.

The microscopic spin-phonon coupling constants in CuGeO_3
Using RPA results, mean field theory, and refined data for the polarization vectors we determine the coupling constants of the four Peierls-active phonon modes to the spin chains of CuGeO_3. We then derive the values of the coupling of the spin system to
