Do resin-based composites show similar kinetic profiles for dimensional change and recovery with solvent storage?
Generally the materials were most greatly affected by MEK storage compared to the other two solvents. The glass-fiber-reinforced EVX, however, was most affected by water immersion. The pattern of change/recovery behavior of the materials, during solvent challenge, was similar to the pattern of viscoelastic creep/recovery behavior of resin-composite materials.
NS in children is not characterized by significant loss of CRP into the urine. Therefore, sCRP may serve as a reliable marker of inflammation in this setting. The significant urinary excretion of CRP in children with transient non-renal infectious disease might be attributable to CRP synthesis in renal epithelial cells.
