V.We compared copeptin levels in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) patients with controls and investigated how plasma copeptin levels were changed with the disease period. Thirty patients with RRMS without a prior attack in the last twelve months, and 19 RRMS patients with a clinical acute attack and 30 healthy individuals were included into the study. Copeptin levels were significantly higher in all RRMS patient groups than healthy controls. Plasma copeptin levels were higher in patients in remission period compared with relapse period of 19 RRMS patients with an acute attack. We consider copeptin can be used as a potential biomarker for RRMS. STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Information on the morphological accuracy of crowns produced by different technologies is limited. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the morphology and contacts of crowns fabricated with intraoral systems, extraoral systems, and conventional method. MATERIAL AND METHODS A typodont mandibular first molar (Nissin Dental Product) received a complete ceramic crown preparation and a reference crown. Microcomputed tomography (μCT) was used to obtain the virtual data (REF) of the reference crown. Three groups of replicated crowns were made intraoral scanning system (TRIOS), extraoral scanning system (D700), and the conventional method (CONV) (n=8). The groups TRIOS and D700 were designed by the correlation method. All crowns were scanned with μCT to obtain 3D data. The data were superimposed on each other or the REF in an inspection software to evaluate precision and trueness. The contact penetration area of the occlusal surfaces of the crowns was calculated. An independent sample t test and 1-way ANOVA with the post hoc least significant difference (LSD) test were use
