Evaluating a Pragmatic Strength Alternative for Frailty Measurement and Assessing Its Predictive Capacity Against Established Frailty Instruments in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Frailty occurs prematurely in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is associated with poor health outcomes. We compared the performance of four frailty instruments, including a pragmatic alternative measure using chair sit‐to‐stand (STS), and evaluated their abilities to predict poor health outcomes.

Soil Moisture: An Essential Climate Variable in Indian Monsoon Regime

open access: yesIOSR Journal of Applied Geology and Geophysics, 2013
Soil moisture as an essential climate variable is studied using regional climate model and has been assessed over Indian climatic zones in Indian monsoon regime. NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis Project 2 data from 1985-1995 are used as boundary conditions to a regional climate model. The model is run on JJAS seasonal scale and analysis is only for the JJAS season
