- We report on ferroelectric/giant magnetoresistive Nao.sKo.sNbCVLao.oSrojMniO} (NKN/LSMO) heterostructures gro\vn onto LaAlOj (001) single crystal using KrF pulsed laser ablation of stoichiometric ceramic target. Main processing parameters have been optimized to obtain smooth LSMO template layer, avoid NKN-LSMO interdiffusion, preserve NKN stoichiometry against the lost of volatile potassium and sodium and achieve reasonable reliability of NKN film performance. X-ray diffraction 0- 20 scans and rocking curves evidence for single-phase content and high c-axis orientation both in template LSMO and top NKN layers. Ferroelectric measurements yield remnant polarization P, of 1.5 (.iC/cm2 and spontaneous polarization Ps of 7 jiC/cm2 at electric field strength of 130 kV/cm. At room temperature, dielectric permittivity e' and dissipation factor tancJhave been found to vary from 595 to 555 and 0.046 to 0.029 respectively in the frequency range of 0.4 to 20 kHz. At 10 kHz dielectric permittivity linearly increases from 410 to 650 in the temperature range 77 K to 415 K while the dissipation factor below 320 K does not exceed 3%.

- We developed an effective regenerative therapy, referred to as platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB)-modulated guided tissue regenerative (GTR) therapy (P-GTR), capable of achieving periodontal regeneration of horizontal (Class III) furcation defects in the beagle dog. To determine its efficacy, repair and regeneration of horizontal furcation defects by P-GTR therapy and GTR therapy were compared. Chronically inflamed horizontal furcation defects were created around the second (P2) and fourth mandibular premolars (P4). After demineralization of the root surfaces with citric acid, the surfaces of left P2 and P4 were treated with PDGF-BB (P-GTR therapy) and those of contralateral teeth were treated with vehicle only (GTR therapy). Periodontal membranes were placed and retained 0.5 mm above the cemento-enamel junction for both groups. The mucoperiosteal flap was sutured in a coronal position and plaque control was achieved by daily irrigation with 2% chlorhexidine gluconate. At 5, 8, and 11 weeks, two animals each were sacrificed by perfusion with 2.5% glutaraldehyde through the carotid arteries, and the lesions were sliced mesio-distally, demineralized, dehydrated, and embedded. Periodontal healing and regeneration after GTR and P-GTR therapy were compared by histomorphometric as well as morphological analysis. Morphometric analysis for each time period was performed on the pooled samples of P2 and P4. Five weeks after both therapies, the lesions were filled primarily by tissue-free area, epithelium, inflamed tissue, and a small amount of newly formed fibrous connective tissue. At 8 and 11 weeks after P-GTR therapy, there was a statistically greater amount of bone and periodontal ligament formed in the lesions. The newly formed bone filled 80% of the lesion at 8 weeks and 87% at 11 weeks with P-GTR therapy, compared to 14% of the lesion at 8 weeks and 60% at 11 weeks with GTR therapy. Also, with P-GTR therapy there was less epithelium and tissue-free area, less inflamed tissue, and less connective tissue. Morphological analysis indicated that the defects around P2 revealed faster periodontal repair and regeneration than those around P4. While the lesions around P2 were effectively regenerated by 11 weeks even after GTR therapy, those around P4 failed to regenerate. On the other hand, P-GTR therapy further promoted periodontal repair and regeneration so that at 8 weeks the lesions around P2 and P4 demonstrated complete and nearly complete regeneration, respectively. Interestingly, P-GTR therapy stimulated formation of fibrous connective tissue compared to GTR therapy in the early stages of repair, thereby filling the wound space with the tissue and stabilizing the wound. Later, the fibrous connective tissue was found to be mineralized into bone or cementum depending on locations during remodeling. Consequently, P-GTR therapy effectively promoted periodontal regeneration with reproducibility.

- A rabbit model was used to study the healing and stability of titanium implants in free bone grafts, placed simultaneously or after 8 weeks of healing and followed for 24 weeks. The skull bone was used as donor site and the tibial metaphysis as recipient site. Stability measurements were performed by using resonance frequency analysis (RFA) at implant placement and after 4, 8, 16 and 24 weeks of healing. Statistically significant higher resonance frequencies were measured at all time points for the delayed approach implants. Removal torque tests after 24 weeks revealed no differences between the two procedures. Histologic ground sections were prepared on specimens taken after 8, 16 and 24 weeks of healing. More bone-implant contacts were observed in the bone graft for the implants inserted in a delayed fashion, while there was no statistically significant difference in the degree of total bone-implant contact between the two groups. It is concluded that delayed implant placement in autogenous onlay bone grafts results in a better integration and stability of the implants.
