background and aim: an important criterion for success assessment of implant-supported prostheses is marginal fit. vertical and horizontal discrepancy can result in loosening of the prosthetic screw, crestal bone resorption, peri-implantitis and loss of osseointegration. despite careful attention to waxing, investing, and casting, marginal discrepancies are inevitable. the aim of this study was...

objective: this experimental in vitro study compared marginal adaptation of indirect composite, glass-ceramic inlays and direct composite. materials and methods: seventy-five recently extracted human molars were randomly divided into three groups (n=25) and mesio-occluso-distal cavities with the same dimensions were prepared in the teeth. indirect composite and glass-ceramic inlays were fabrica...

Preface The present set of lecture notes are prepared for the course " Statistik 2 " at the University of Copenhagen. It is a revised version of notes prepared in connection with a series of lectures at the Swedish summerschool in Särö, June 11–17, 1979. The notes do by no means give a complete account of the theory of contingency tables. They are based on the idea that the graph theoretic meth...

This paper considers some fundamental questions concerning marginally trapped surfaces, or apparent horizons, in Cauchy data sets for the Einstein equation. An area estimate for outermost marginally trapped surfaces is proved. The proof makes use of an existence result for marginal surfaces, in the presence of barriers, curvature estimates, together with a novel surgery construction for margina...

This research combined three distinctly unique and separate measures of corruption into one corruption factor, so as to yield a robust measurement approach to further understand the political and socioeconomic variables of corruption. The findings show that a strong significant variable in measuring corruption is the personal marginal-tax rate, especially in hierarchical based nations. The high...
