Abstract：
:The Pittsburgh Tissue Engineering Initiative (PTEI) is the prime catalyst for tissue-engineering research and the development of a viable for-profit tissue-engineering industry in southwestern Pennsylvania. PTEI operates targeted programs that support commercializable research; provide professional and community education; and facilitate interactions between academic medical centers, regional government, and industry to support the development of a vibrant tissue-engineering industry. This article discusses the types of research and education programs provided by PTEI and provides a brief summary of some of the tissue-engineering-related research in the region.

杂志文章abstract：:The success of a denture is dependent on a good foundation; therefore, construction of the prosthesis begins with extraction of the teeth. The teeth should be maintained as long as possible if they can be restored. When the teeth are extracted, bone resorption usually starts, owing to systemic and local factors. Good ...

abstract：:All unilateral clefts of the lip are not alike. The deficiencies that exist, especially in the lateral lip element, can vary considerably. Because of these differences, it is unreasonable to expect one technique of repair to satisfy all situations. In more difficult complete unilateral cleft lip deformity, the Z-plast...
