Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate whether new-onset periodontitis or apical periodontitis in the adjacent teeth affects osseointegrated dental implants in a beagle dog model. METHODS One control group and 2 experimental groups (periodontitis and apical periodontitis groups) were defined based on the presence of experimental periodontitis or apical periodontitis, with 1 beagle dog randomly assigned to each group. The mandibular second and fourth premolars on both sides of the 3 beagles were extracted. Eight weeks after extraction, 4 bone-level implant fixtures, 2 on both sides of each mandible, were placed in each beagle. Six weeks after implant surgery, healing abutments were connected. After sufficient osseointegration, plaque control was performed in the control group, while periodontitis and apical periodontitis were induced in the experimental groups. The beagles were euthanized for histological analyses 20 weeks after induction of experimental periodontitis. Statistical analyses were performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test with the Bonferroni correction to compare the 3 groups. RESULTS The implants in the control and apical periodontitis groups were well-maintained, while those in the periodontitis group showed clinical signs of inflammation with bone resorption. The bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and bone area values in the periodontitis group were lower than those in the other groups. The distance between the implant shoulder and the first BIC was significantly greater in the periodontitis group than in the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The presence of periodontitis in adjacent teeth can pose a risk to dental implants, potentially resulting in peri-implantitis. However, this was not observed for apical periodontitis. Within the limitations of this study, periodontal care is necessary to reduce the impact of periodontitis in adjacent teeth on osseointegrated implants.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) As patients with poor performance status cannot endure long treatment times, it can lead to unplanned and prolonged radiation treatment or discontinuation of treatment. Moreover, prolonged radiation treatment appears to negatively affect survival for patients. We aimed to verify the feasibility of fast 4DCT-based O-ring linear accelerator (LINAC) treatment in lung 4D stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). MATERIALS/METHODS This study included data of 38 patients who received lung 4D-SBRT. Gating20-70% plans were based on 4DCT data obtained at phase values ranging from 20-70% using a C-arm LINAC. Non-GatingFB plans were retrospectively established based on 4DCT data obtained at phase values of 0-90% using an O-ring LINAC. The prescribed dose of 4,800 cGy was delivered to PTV in four fractions. The conformity index (CI), homogeneity index (HI), and gradient measurement (GM) of the PTV were analyzed to compare dosimetric data between Gating20-70% and Non-GatingFB plans. Organs at risks (OARs) were analyzed in accordance with the RTOG 0915 protocol. Treatment delivery time and total monitor units (MU) were analyzed to compare the efficiency of treatment delivery. Statistical comparisons were performed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test (p<0.05). RESULTS For the PTV, there was no significant difference in the CI or HI between Gating20-70% and Non-GatingFB plans (CI: 1.337±0.137, 1.335±0.174, HI: 0.939±0.015, 0.939±0.016, all at p>0.05). However, there was a significant difference in GM between Gating20-70% and Non-GatingFB plan (1.528±0.206 cm, 1.381±0.222 cm, p<0.001). For OARs, all plans met the criteria for dose constraint. There was a significant difference between Gating20-70% and Non-GatingFB plans except in the spinal cord. In particular, D1000cc and D1500cc values for the ipsilateral lung for Gating20-70% plans were 31.6% and 59.9% lower than those for Non-GatingFB plans (D1000cc: 50.780±132.061 cGy, 34.755±102.480 cGy, p<0.001, D1500cc: 6.641±14.598 cGy, 2.666±7.926 cGy, p<0.001). Treatment delivery time was 92% longer for Gating20-70% plans than for Non-GatingFB plans (5.0±0.4 min, 9.6±3.3 min, p = 0.043). The total MU value for Gating20-70% plans was 9.6% higher than that for Non-GatingFB plans (3665.8±230.7, 4016±236.9, p = 0.039). CONCLUSION When compared to OARs both plans were acceptable per RTOG-0915 protocol, but significant differences were between Non-GatingFB and Gating20-70% plans. However, treatment delivery time of Non-GatingFB plans decreased by 47.9% than Gating20-70% plans. We verified the feasibility of fast 4DCT-based O-ring LINAC treatment for patients who cannot endure long treatment times due to poor performance status in lung 4D-SBRT. In further study, we will analyze dosimetric differences and treatment delivery efficiency considering tumor motion according to tumor location.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The pattern of locoregional recurrence specifically after robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) for prostate adenocarcinoma is still unknown. In this study, we reviewed pelvic magnetic resonance images (MRI) after postoperative biochemical recurrence (BCR) and drew a map of locoregional recurrence to support evidence of determining the optimal target volume of salvage radiotherapy in a post-RALP BCR scenario. MATERIALS/METHODS We have retrospectively searched 7,583 prostate adenocarcinoma patients who have received RALP in our institution between January 2010 and December 2021, and found a pool of highly selected patients with gross tumor recurrence confirmed by post-BCR pelvic MRIs and did not have other histories of malignancy. BCR was defined as the serum PSA more or equal to 0.2 ng/mL, or three consecutive increases. Patients with serum PSA nadir more or equal to 0.2 ng/mL on the 90th postoperative day (POD 90) were excluded to guarantee successful tumor removal. We have reviewed serum PSA levels using R codes, MRI and pathological reports using Excel, and descriptive statistics using SPSS 25. The gross lesions were contoured on the correlating MRIs using MIM Maestro 7.1. The RT structure DICOM files were merged into a map using MATLAB 2022b. In addition, we have conducted Fisher exacted test, Mann-Whitney U test, and logistic regression to identify risk factors for regional recurrence. RESULTS A total of 173 patients were identified with locoregional recurrence from post-BCR pelvic MRIs, and 139 (80.3%) patients were in the high-risk group or very-high-risk group according to the NCCN guidelines: 57 (32.9%) patients with histological grade group 5, 50 (28.9%) patients with initial PSA over 20 ng/mL, 114 (65.9%) patients with extracapsular extension, 55 (31.8%) patients with seminal vesicle invasion, and 15 (9%) patients with pN1. The median follow-up was 4.7 (IQR 2.8-6.9) years for pelvic MRIs and 5.8 (IQR 4.0-8.6) years for serum PSA. The BCF survival was median of 10.7 (IQR 4.6-19.1) months, and the locoregional recurrence-free survival was median of 24.6 (IQR 9.7-49.4) months for this subgroup of patients. At first locoregional recurrence, 148 (85.5%) patients were local only, 20 (11.6%) patients were regional only, and 5 (2.9%) patients were both local and regional. Out of the 25 patients with regional recurrence, the incidence of gross tumor recurrence differed by nodal sites: 3 (12%) in perirectal space, 5 (20%) in internal iliac, 7 (28%) in obturator, 13 (52%) in external iliac, and 6 (24%) in common iliac lymph nodes. CONCLUSION We have found 173 patients and were able to map reliable gross tumor recurrence sites after RALP and confirmed by pelvic MRIs following BCR. The map supports evidence of using the existing consensus pelvic clinical target volume of salvage radiotherapy, in a post-RALP BCR scenario.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) This study aimed to investigate the effect of effective dose to immune cell (EDIC) combined with pre-radiotherapy (RT) absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) on treatment-related lymphopenia during RT and treatment outcome in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A subgroup analysis in patients who received consolidation immunotherapy was also conducted. MATERIALS/METHODS Between August 2008 and December 2021, 517 patients with locally advanced NSCLC treated with definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT) were retrospectively analyzed. All patients had serial complete-blood-count tests at pre-, and during-CRT. Severe lymphopenia was defined as ALC < 0.5x109cells/L during RT. EDIC was calculated according to mean doses of the lung, heart and the total body. The patients were grouped according to high and low EDIC and pre-RT ALC and was assessed for its correlation with radiation induced lymphopenia and survival outcomes. RESULTS Of 517 eligible patients, most of the patients received weekly paclitaxel with carboplatin (90.3%) and 195 patients (37.7%) received consolidation immunotherapy following CRT. A median radiation dose of 63 Gy (IQR, 60-64.5) was delivered in 30 fractions. The optimal cutoff value of EDIC and pre-RT ALC for predicting severe lymphopenia were 2.89 Gy and 2.03x109cells/L, respectively. High risk group was defined as EDIC ≥ 2.89 Gy and pre-RT ALC < 2.03x109cells/L, low risk group as EDIC <2.89 Gy and pre-RT ALC ≥ 2.03x109cells/L, and intermediate group as EDIC ≥ 2.89 Gy and pre-RT ALC ≥ 2.03x109cells/L or EDIC < 2.89 Gy and pre-RT ALC < 2.03x109cells/L. The incidence of severe lymphopenia during RT in high, intermediate, and low risk group was 90.1%, 77.1%, and 52.3%, respectively (p<0.001). The risk groups were independent predictors for both progression-free survival (PFS) (p<0.001) and overall survival (OS) (p<0.001). The high-risk group had higher incidence of locoregional and distant recurrences (p<0.001). In the subset of patients who were treated with consolidation immunotherapy, the risk groups were predictive of severe lymphopenia (p = 0.001), PFS (p = 0.004), and OS (p = 0.012). CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that the combination of EDIC and pre-RT ALC is a predictor for severe lymphopenia during RT, recurrence, and survival in patients with locally advanced NSCLC who received CRT. Moreover, the combination of EDIC and pre-RT ALC may serve as a potential biomarker for the benefit of maintenance immunotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE The da Vinci SP® (dVSP) surgical system (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, CA, USA), a robotic platform designed for single-incision surgery, overcame the need for multiple ports in traditional robotic surgery and issues including triangulation and retraction in single-incision laparoscopic surgery. However, previous studies only included case reports or series with small sample sizes. The aim of this study was to assess the safety and performance of the dVSP surgical system and its instruments and accessories for colorectal procedures. METHODS The medical records of patients who had surgery with the dVSP from March 2019 to September 2021 at Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital were investigated. The pathologic and follow-up data of patients who had malignant tumors were analyzed separately to evaluate oncological safety. RESULTS Fifty patients (26 male and 24 female) with a median age of 59 years (interquartile range 52.5-63.0 years) were enrolled. The procedures included low anterior resection with total mesorectal excision (n = 16), sigmoid colectomy with complete mesocolic excision and central vessel ligation (CME + CVL) (n = 14), right colectomy with CME + CVL (n = 9), left colectomy with CME + CVL (n = 4), right colectomy (n = 6), and sigmoid colectomy (n = 1). Operative time significantly decreased after 25 cases (early phase vs. late phase; operative time 295.0 min vs. 250.0 min, p = 0.015; docking time 16.0 min vs. 12.0 min, p = 0.001; console time 212.0 min vs. 190.0 min, p = 0.019). Planned procedures were successfully completed in all patients. Postoperative outcomes were acceptable with only six cases of mild adverse events through a 3-month follow-up. No local recurrence and only one case of systemic recurrence occurred within 1 year postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated the surgical and oncological safety and feasibility of dVSP, which may be a novel surgical platform for colorectal surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To measure wellness and burnout among gynecologic oncology clinicians and identify trends and at-risk populations to inform future interventions. METHODS Gynecologic oncologist (GO) and advanced practice provider (APP) responses to the 2020 Society of Gynecologic Oncology State of the Society survey were analyzed. The Maslach Burnout Inventory criteria for burnout was used. Work-life balance was scored on a 5-point Likert scale. Chi-square tests were used to compare mental health factors and the prevalence of burnout. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for associations between burnout and gender. RESULTS 543 survey responses were included for analysis. Most GO (54%) and all APP respondents were female. Female GOs were disproportionately affected by burnout particularly in the Northeast (female(F): 40.9% vs male(M): 19.1%, p = 0.007) and South (F: 42.5% vs M:22.9%, p = 0.01). Burnout in female GOs over 40 was 1.79 (CI: 1.13-2.83; p-value 0.01) times higher than similarly aged males. Females in non-private practice experienced burnout 1.66 times that of males in similar positions (CI: 1.18-2.94; p < 0.0001). Female GOs reported the worst work-life balance across all 5 domains. APPs and female GOs experienced more stress and feeling overwhelmed compared to men. GOs were more reluctant to see a mental health professional (p = 0.0003) or take medication (p = 0.009) than APPs. CONCLUSIONS Burnout in gynecologic oncology persists in both genders and is felt most acutely by female GOs. APPs are not immune and would benefit from inclusion in future research to mitigate burnout in healthcare clinicians.

Abstract
Background/Introduction
Transthyretin amyloidosis with mutations (aTTRv amyloidosis) have over 100 recognized pathogenic mutations of the TTR gene and its clinical manifestations are very heterogenous. Through the global THAOS (Transthyretin Amyloidosis Outcomes Survey) patient registry, different and several types of mutants and clinical differences have been identified. Awareness of aTTRv amyloidosis is now becoming somewhat significant amongst physicians all over the world. This is a detailed look at such efforts in Korea.
Purpose
We aimed to seek the geologic significance of aTTRv amyloidosis in South Korea.
Methods
This was an analysis of 638 Korean amyloidosis patients in a single center over a period of 16 years from 1995 to October 2021. 95 individuals were found with aTTR mutations.
Results
aTTRv amyloidosis constituted 14.8% (n=95) of amyloidosis patients, and the most commonly involved organ being the heart (61.7%, n=58). Unlike the rest of the world, the mixed phenotype was most common (51.0%, n=48) in Korea and the most universal mutation in Koreans were Asp38Ala, which only constitutes about 1.0% in the THAOS registry. Val30Met mutation, which comprises 76% of the mutation in the THAOS registry, was mostly associated the neurologic phenotypes. However, the same mutations in Korea mixed phenotypes with cardiac (38.4%) and neurologic (37%) symptoms.
Conclusion
aTTRv amyloidosis in Korea is different from other patients worldwide. The mixed phenotype was most common, emphasizing the need for heart failure management in the Korean population. Genotype wise, Koreans held a less common mutation of Asp38Ala. The most common mutation of Val30Met was more likely to be associated cardiac symptoms, which concurs with other studies that suggesting that geological features are more important than mutations itself.

Abstract
With the increase of the adult orthodontic population, there is a need for an accurate and evidence-based prediction of the posttreatment face in 3 dimensions (3D). The objectives of this study are 1) to develop a 3D postorthodontic face prediction method based on a deep learning network using the patient-specific factors and orthodontic treatment conditions and 2) to validate the accuracy and clinical usability of the proposed method. Paired sets (n = 268) of pretreatment (T1) and posttreatment (T2) cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) of adult patients were trained with a conditional generative adversarial network to generate 3D posttreatment facial data based on the patient's gender, age, and the changes of upper (ΔU1) and lower incisor position (ΔL1) as input. The accuracy was calculated with prediction error and mean absolute distances between real T2 (T2) and predicted T2 (PT2) near 6 perioral landmark regions, as well as percentage of prediction error less than 2 mm using test sets (n = 44). For qualitative evaluation, an online survey was conducted with experienced orthodontists as panels (n = 56). Overall, PT2 indicated similar 3D changes to the T2 face, with the most apparent changes simulated in the perioral regions. The mean prediction error was 1.2 ± 1.01 mm with 80.8% accuracy. More than 50% of the experienced orthodontists were unable to distinguish between real and predicted images. In this study, we proposed a valid 3D postorthodontic face prediction method by applying a deep learning algorithm trained with CBCT data sets.

Abstract
Embryonic stem cells have been a popular research topic in regenerative medicine owing to their pluripotency and applicability. However, due to the difficulty in harvesting them and their low yield efficiency, advanced cell reprogramming technology has been introduced as an alternative. Dental stem cells have entered the spotlight due to their regenerative potential and their ability to be obtained from biological waste generated after dental treatment. Cell reprogramming, a process of reverting mature somatic cells into stem cells, and transdifferentiation, a direct conversion between different cell types without induction of a pluripotent state, have helped overcome the shortcomings of stem cells and raised interest in their regenerative potential. Furthermore, the potential of these cells to return to their original cell types due to their epigenetic memory has reinforced the need to control the epigenetic background for successful management of cellular differentiation. Herein, we discuss all available sources of dental stem cells, the procedures used to obtain these cells, and their ability to differentiate into the desired cells. We also introduce the concepts of cell reprogramming and transdifferentiation in terms of genetics and epigenetics, including DNA methylation, histone modification, and non-coding RNA. Finally, we discuss a novel therapeutic avenue for using dental-derived cells as stem cells, and explain cell reprogramming and transdifferentiation, which are used in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.

Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the healing patterns of 2-mm and 4-mm proximal infrabony defects adjacent to dental implants in canine mandibles. Methods Four male beagles were used. Two groups were created: a 2-mm group (n=4) and a 4-mm group (n=4) depending on the horizontal dimension of proximal infrabony defects adjacent to implants. Bone healing patterns between the 2 groups were evaluated and compared at 8 and 16 weeks using radiographic, histological, histomorphometric, and fluorescent labelling analyses. Results According to microcomputed tomography, the median bone volume fraction, bone mineral density, and the percentage of radiographic distance from the defect bottom to the most coronal bone-to-implant contact (radio-mcBIC) were 32.9%, 0.6 g/cm3, and 73.7% (8 weeks) and 45.7%, 0.7 g/cm3, and 76.0% (16 weeks) in the 2-mm group and 57.7%, 0.8 g/cm3, and 75.7% (8 weeks) and 50.9%, 0.8 g/cm3, and 74.7% (16 weeks) in the 4-mm group, respectively. According to histomorphometry, the median bone area fraction, mcBIC and the percentage of BIC amounted to 36.7%, 3.4 mm, and 58.4% (8 weeks) and 49.2%, 3.4 mm, and 70.2% (16 weeks) in the 2-mm group and 50.0%, 3.0 mm, and 64.8% (8 weeks) and 55.7%, 3.0 mm, and 69.6% (16 weeks) in the 4-mm group, respectively. No statistically significant differences were found between the groups for any variables (P>0.05). Conclusions The proximal defects that measured 2 mm and 4 mm showed similar healing patterns at 8 and 16 weeks, and the top of bone formation in the defects was substantially limited to a maximum of 1.6 mm below the implant shoulder in both groups.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) increase the risk of comorbidity and mortality in coronary artery disease (CAD).
Objectives
We evaluate influence of PAD on prognosis in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods
We analyzed all consecutive patients included in our dedicated local registry for PCI between January 2011 and December 2016. Presence of PAD was defined by decreased ankle-brachial index (<0.9). Major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) was defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarct, revascularization, and ischemic stroke. Major bleeding was defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium 3 or 5.
Results
Among the 4,747 patients who underwent the PCI, 12.9% (n=610) of PAD were identified. Old age (>60 years), renal dysfunction, reduced ejection fraction, and presence of PAD were predictors with both MACE and major bleeding event. Among them, presence of PAD was an independent risk factor of MACE and major bleeding (MACE, HR 8.26, 95% CI 2.33- 29.41, p=0.036; major bleeding, HR 3.11, 95% CI 1.10–10.63, p=0.040, respectively). The MACE and major bleeding rate at 5-year was significantly increased in patients with PAD (MACE, 30.0% vs. 15.8%, log rank test p<0.001; major bleeding, 6.7 vs. 3.6%, log rank test p=0.003, respectively) (Figure).
Conclusion
Presence of PAD was strongly associated with higher rate of long-term MACE and major bleeding. These findings could have a clinical relevance in requiring individualized pharmacologic strategies to reduce the burden of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
With advances in treatment of ischemic heart disease and cancer treatment, use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in cancer survivors and patients with active cancer (AC) is expanding.
Objectives
The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of cancer on survival and major cardiovascular events (MACE) in a long-term, single-center cohort of patients treated with PCI.
Methods
Patients treated with PCI between January 2010 and December 2017 were grouped as follows: controls (patients without cancer), stable cancer (SC), and AC. AC was included patients with cancer diagnosed within the past 6 months, patients who had cancer-related therapy within the past 6 months, active metastatic disease, or active recurrence of the cancer. The primary endpoints were 5-year survival and a secondary endpoint was 5-year MACE.
Results
A total of 6,743 patients (age 66±12 years, 68.4% men) treated with PCI were included: 6,404 (95.0%) controls, 245 (3.6%) SC, and 94 (1.4%) AC. Predominant malignancies were gastrointestinal (37.4%), lung (22.7%), and genitourinary cancer (14.7%). No differences were observed between patients with AC, SC and controls regarding 5-year MACE (total MACE, 33.2% vs. 28.1% vs. 17.5%, p=0.072; cardiac death, 13.6% vs. 9.1% vs. 6.7%, p=0.066; non-fatal myocardial infarction, 2.9% vs. 7.5% vs. 7.8%, p=0.820; revascularization, 17.9% vs. 17.6% vs. 11.6%, p=0.794, respectively). Patients with AC and SC had reduced 5-year survival compared with controls (62.0% vs. 81.5% vs. 89.8%, p<0.001) (Figure). AC was associated with a 1.76 (95% CI 1.22 to 2.54, p=0.002) fold increased risk of all-cause 5-year mortality in multivariable adjusted models.
Conclusions
Cumulative incidence of 5-year survival was discriminated by concurrent status of cancer following PCI. Individualized decision making is needed in the routine practice of PCI regarding concurrent cancer-specific treatment and prognosis.

Abstract
Background Patients with advanced sarcomas have a poor prognosis and few treatment options that improve overall survival. We assessed the efficacy and tolerability of pemetrexed and cisplatin combination therapy in patients with refractory bone and soft tissue sarcoma (STS). Patients and Methods Patients were included in this multicenter, phase II study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT03809637) if they progressed after receiving one or more chemotherapy regimens containing an anthracycline and/or ifosfamide. Pemetrexed was first administered intravenously, followed by cisplatin, over a cycle of 21 days, for a maximum of six cycles. The primary endpoint was a progression-free rate (PFR) at 3 months (3-month PFR). Results From January 2017 to September 2019, we enrolled 37 patients; of these, 73% had previously undergone three or more rounds of chemotherapy. Five patients (13.5%) exhibited objective responses, including two patients (2/6, 33.3%) with malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors, one patient (1/4, 25%) with synovial sarcoma, one patient (1/4, 25%) with undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, and one patient (1/4, 25%) with angiosarcoma. The median progression-free survival was 2.6 months, and the 3-month PFR was 45.9% (n = 17). None of the four patients with osteosarcoma exhibited objective responses or were progression free at 3 months. The most frequent treatment-related grade 3-4 toxicities included neutropenia (16.2%), anemia (13.5%), thrombocytopenia (13.5%), and fatigue (8.1%). Among 26 patients (70.3%) available for immunohistochemical assessments, patients in the low-excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) and low-thymidylate synthase expression groups showed a tendency for longer overall survival. Conclusions Combination therapy with pemetrexed and cisplatin was associated with clinically meaningful and sustained responses among patients with advanced and refractory STS. The combination therapy met its predefined primary study endpoint. Pemetrexed and cisplatin show promising efficacy for advanced sarcoma treatment, particularly as a salvage therapy option. The combination therapy met its predefined primary endpoint, with a 3-month PFR of 45.9%. Pemetrexed and cisplatin showed acceptable toxicity in heavily treated sarcoma patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We previously suggested an ovariectomy (OVX)-induced osteoporotic rat model showing an impaired alveolar bone defect healing. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the effects of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) and recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor-BB (rhPDGF-BB) on alveolar bone defect healing in OVX-induced osteoporotic rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of forty-one female rats were divided into four groups: a collagen group (n=10), a PDGF-BB group (n=11), a BMP-2 group (n=10), and a control group (n=10). Four months after OVX, alveolar bone drill-hole defects were created and grafted with collagen gel, rhPDGF-BB/collagen gel, or rhBMP-2/collagen gel. The defects in the control group were not grafted with any material. Defect healing was evaluated by histological, histomorphometric, and microcomputed tomographic (micro-CT) analyses at 2 and 4 weeks. RESULTS According to the micro-CT analysis, the BMP-2 group exhibited the greatest bone volume fraction among all groups, while the PDGF-BB group did not show significant differences compared with the collagen group. The histomorphometric analysis showed a significantly larger amount of new bone area in the BMP-2 group than in the control and collagen groups at 4 weeks; however, the PDGF-BB group did not reach significant superiority compared with the other groups. CONCLUSIONS Alveolar bone regeneration was significantly enhanced by the local use of rhBMP-2/collagen gel compared with the use of rhPDGF-BB/collagen gel in OVX-induced osteoporotic rats. CLINICAL RELEVANCE A treatment modality using rhBMP-2 may be a promising approach to promote alveolar bone regeneration in patients suffering from postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Abstract
The milling of highly flexible workpieces, such as thin-walled structures used in turbine blades, aerospace equipment, and jet engine compressors, requires vibration compensation to improve the quality of the workpiece surface. Vibration can be reduced by selecting appropriate cutting parameters. However, this approach reduces system productivity. This paper presents an active workpiece holder that controls the vibration of general computer numerical control machine tools. The proposed holder, which comprises a flexible guide mechanism, driver, and sensor, measures vibration and actively controls it using piezoactuators. A high-rigidity flexure mechanism was designed for the holder, and finite element method simulation and modal analysis were performed. Finally, the proposed system was fabricated, and experimental verification indicated that the system reduced vibration. The surface quality obtained using the controlled system was ∼50% better than that obtained using the uncontrolled system.

Abstract
Silicon nitrides, deposited by capacitively coupled plasma (CCP)-type plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD), are generally applied to today's nanoscale semiconductor devices, and are currently being investigated in terms of their potential applications in the context of flexible displays, etc. During the PEALD process, 13.56 MHz rf power is generally employed for the generation of reactive gas plasma. In this study, the effects of a higher plasma generation frequency of 162 MHz on both plasma and silicon nitride film characteristics are investigated for the purpose of silicon nitride PEALD, using bis(diethylamino)silane (BDEAS) as the silicon precursor, and N2 plasma as the reactant gas. The PEALD silicon nitride film deposited using the 162 MHz CCP exhibited improved film characteristics, such as reduced surface roughness, a lower carbon percentage, a higher N/Si ratio, a lower wet etch rate in a diluted HF solution, lower leakage current, and higher electric breakdown field, and more uniform step coverage of the silicon nitride film deposited in a high aspect ratio trench, as compared to silicon nitride PEALD using 13.56 MHz CCP. These improved PEALD silicon nitride film characteristics are believed to be related to the higher ion density, higher reactive gas dissociation, and lower ion bombardment energy to the substrate observed in N2 plasma with a 162 MHz CCP.

Abstract
Periodontopathic bacteria are known to have a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. The aim of the study was to quantitatively compare bacterial profile of patients with different severity of periodontal disease using samples from mouthwash and the subgingival area. Further analysis was performed to evaluate the correlation between mouthwash and two subgingival sampling methods: paperpoint and gingival retraction cord; 114 subjects enrolled in the study, and were divided equally into three groups according to disease severity. Mouthwash and subgingival sampling were conducted, and the samples were quantitatively analyzed for 11 target periodontopathic bacteria using multiplex real-time PCR. There were statistically significant differences in bacterial counts and prevalence of several species between the study groups. Mouthwash sampling showed significant correlations with two different subgingival sampling methods in regard to the detection of several bacteria (e.g., ρ = 0.793 for Porphyromonas gingivalis in severe periodontitis), implying that mouthwash sampling can reflect subgingival microbiota. However, the correlation was more prominent as disease severity increased. Although bacteria in mouthwash have potential to become a biomarker, it may be more suitable for the diagnosis of severe periodontitis, rather than early diagnosis. Further research is required for the discovery of biomarkers for early diagnosis of periodontitis.

Abstract
Peri-implantitis is an inflammatory disease that results in bone destruction around dental implants. A preclinical study using beagle models is frequently performed prior to clinical application in dentistry. Previously, we proposed an immediate peri-implantitis experimental model with a shorter experimental duration and less expense than the conventional experimental model. However, the differences in the regenerative outcomes between the immediate and conventional models were not fully revealed. In this study, we aimed to compare the regenerative outcomes between both models when ex vivo BMP2 gene therapy using autologous periodontal ligament stem cells (B2/PDLSCs) was applied to peri-implantitis defects. The results showed that the defect depths were significantly different between both models. New bone formation occurred in both models, but there were significant differences between the models. More than 70% of the defects were filled with newly formed bone in the conventional model, whereas 30-40% of the defects were filled in the immediate model. However, after adjustment for the differences in the defect depths between the models, the statistically significant differences in the regenerative outcomes between the models were lost. In conclusion, the inferior regenerative outcome of an immediate peri-implantitis model at B2/PDLSCs transplantation resulted from the defect depths, not the model itself.

Abstract
PURPOSE Historically, atopic dermatitis (AD) is associated with an increased risk of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). However, uncertainty remained regarding the effect of AD itself and comorbidities (e.g., allergic diseases, cataract surgery) on RRD occurrence in a large, population-based paediatric population. PATIENTS AND METHODS We analysed the 12-year National Health Insurance Service database (2002-2013) covering the entire Korean population to estimate the association between AD and RRD in people aged under 20 years. RESULTS We identified 3142 RRD patients, and matched 18,852 controls (six controls to each RRD patient); therefore, we included 21,994 peoples under aged 20 years in the analyses. AD was more prevalent in the RRD group (329 patients, 10.47%) than the control group (1043 patients, 5.53%; P < 0.001), and so were severe AD (153 patients [4.87%] and 223 patients [1.18%], respectively; P < 0.001). In conditional logistic regression analysis, AD was associated with RRD (OR, 1.61; 95% CI, 1.93-1.87) even after adjusting for allergic conditions, connective tissue disease, uveitis, and cataract surgery. In addition, severity of AD was associated with an increased risk of RRD (OR for non-severe AD and severe AD, 1.26 [95% CI, 1.05-1.51] and 2.88 [95% CI, 2.25-3.68]). CONCLUSION This study suggests that AD itself is a risk factor of RRD in children by showing the association between AD and RRD occurrence and the biologic gradient even after adjustment for known confounders including allergic conditions, uveitis, and cataract surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to seek the critical time for impairment of alveolar bone regeneration after ovariectomy (OVX) in rats. METHODS A total of 32 female rats were used. Test group rats were divided into a 2M group (n = 8), a 3M group (n = 8) and a 4M group (n = 8) according to the duration from OVX to defect creation. Bilateral OVX was performed in all test groups, and a sham operation was performed in the control group (n = 8). Drill-hole defects (1.5 mm diameter, 2 mm length) were created on both sides of the maxilla. All rats were euthanized 2 and 4 weeks after the surgery. Microcomputed tomographic (micro-CT), histological, and histomorphometric analyses and in vitro experiments were performed. RESULTS The 4M group showed significantly less new bone formation and a lower bone mineral density than the other groups in the micro-CT analysis. The histomorphometric analysis also revealed that the 4M group showed significantly less new bone formation than the control and 2M groups. The rats in the 4M group showed significantly higher alkaline phosphatase expression levels and a larger number of calcified nodules than rats in the other groups, whereas osteoclastic activity was significantly lower in the 4M group than in the other groups. CONCLUSIONS The critical time for impairment of alveolar bone regeneration was 4 months after OVX in rats.

Abstract
In recent years, precision stages, which are widely used in many industrial fields, have been required to have a higher speed, larger size, and higher precision to help realize higher productivity and product quality. High-performance positioning techniques for inspection and production equipment are classified as one of the most challenging technologies. Vibration control is crucial to realize high-precision positioning technologies. In a precision system, various vibrations exist, which act as disturbances and can degrade the system performance. Minimizing the vibrations generated by the system can, thus, help improve the accuracy of system positioning. This paper proposes a hybrid active mount module for a precision stage. The developed module improves stage performance by reducing the base vibration arising from the floor, minimizing the vibration caused by the driving linear motors of the precision stage, and reducing the settling time by compensating the offset displacement due to the nonlinearity of the passive mount during stage driving. The prototype design is presented herein, and the experimental results demonstrate the potential of the developed device. The developed system is expected to effectively improve the stage performance by controlling the various causes of vibration.

Abstract
Trans-polyacetylene [t-(CH)_{x}] possesses twofold ground state degeneracy. Using the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger Hamiltonian, scientists predicted charged solitons to be the primary photoexcitations in t-(CH)_{x}; this prediction, however, has led to sharp debate. To resolve this saga, we use subpicosecond transient photomodulation spectroscopy in the mid-IR spectral range (0.1-1.5 eV) in neat t-(CH)_{x} thin films. We show that odd-parity singlet excitons are the primary photoexcitations in t-(CH)_{x}, similar to many other nondegenerate π-conjugated polymers. The exciton transitions are characterized by two photoinduced absorption (PA) bands at 0.38 and 0.6 eV, and an associated photoluminescence band at ∼1.5 eV having similar polarization memory. The primary excitons undergo internal conversion within ∼100 fs to an even-parity (dark) singlet exciton with a PA band at ∼1.4 eV. We also find ultrafast photogeneration of charge polarons when pumping deep into the polymer continuum band, which are characterized by two other PA bands in the mid-IR and associated photoinduced IR vibrational modes.

Abstract
Background Women has lower prevalence of coronary artery disease but has higher mortality from acute myocardial infarction. The gender difference in the anatomical-physiological relationship may elucidate the gender difference in the clinical presentation of coronary artery disease.
Purpose
We hypothesized that the gender difference in the anatomical-physiological relationship may elucidate the gender difference in the clinical presentation of coronary artery disease.
Background Women has lower prevalence of coronary artery disease but has higher mortality from acute myocardial infarction. The gender difference in the anatomical-physiological relationship may elucidate the gender difference in the clinical presentation of coronary artery disease.
Methods In this multicenter registry, 482 patients who underwent coronary CT angiography and fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement were enrolled. Fractional myocardial mass (FMM, a vessel-specific amount of myocardium) and %FMM (fraction of FMM to whole myocardial mass) was measured in major coronary arteries and branches. FFR and quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) were interrogated in the subset of 772 vessels. The severity of physiological or anatomical stenosis was assessed by FFR and diameter stenosis (DS), respectively.
Results In the analysis of all major epicardial arteries (N = 3,833), FMM was lower in women compared to men (p < 0.01, all), but %FMM was similar between women and men (p = NS, all). Among physiologically assessed 772 vessels, compared to men (N = 587), vessels of women (N = 185) showed smaller dimension (reference diameter (RD) = 2.90 ± 0.65 vs 3.14 ± 0.69 mm, minimal luminal diameter (MLD) = 1.30±.0.57 vs 1.40 ± 0.57 mm (p < 0.05, all), similar severity of stenosis (DS = 55% vs 55% p = NS), and higher FFR (0.81 ± 0.13 vs 0.78 ± 0.15, p < 0.001). In subgroup analysis according to the tertiary categories of DS, RD, and MLD, vessels of women showed higher FFR and lower FMM. Generalized estimating equations modeling demonstrated that gender, DS, RD, MLD, and location in left anterior descending artery were not (p = NS, all) but FMM/MLD were significant predictors for FFR ≤ 0.80 (p = 0.021).
Conclusions
Compared to men, coronary arteries of women are smaller and supply smaller amount of myocardium even after adjusting for vessel size, which may explain overall higher FFR value of women. This gender difference in anatomical-physiological relationship may explain the gender difference in the clinical coronary artery disease.

Abstract
Abstract
Aims The burden of coronary artery disease has been assessed by various semi-quantitative angiographic scores, which are frequently different each other. A non-invasive and quantitative modality may substitute angiographic sores for prognostic implication and decision of revascularization strategy. We compared fractional myocardial mass (FMM) with angiographic scores for predicting myocardial ischemia.
Methods In this multicenter registry, 411 patients who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) were followed by invasive coronary angiography and FFR measurement. CCTA–derived %FMM with diameter stenosis ≥70% (%FMM-70) or ≥50% (%FMM-50) were compared with 9 angiographic scores (APPROACH, Duke Jeopardy, BARI, CASS, SYNTAX, Jenkins, BCIS-1, Leaman, Modified Duke) and were tested regarding their performance for predicting FFR ≤ 0.80. Predictive performance of %FMM or angiographic scores for FFR ≤ 0.80 established in derivation cohort (N = 250) and tested in validation cohort (N = 161).
Results The performance of %FMM-70 and %FMM-50 were similar to most angiographic scores (%FMM-70, c-statistics = 0.76; %FMM-50, 0.71; angiographic scores, 0.68 – 0.79). The frequency of FFR ≤ 0.80 increased consistently according to %FMM-70, %FMM-50, and all angiographic scores (p < 0.001, all). The optimal cutoff of %FMM-50 and %FMM-70 for FFR ≤ 0.80 were ≥34.5% and ≥9.8%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of %FMM-50 were 83%, 56%, 73%, 70%, 72%, and of %FMM-70 were 72%, 78%, 75%, 75%, and 75% using these cutoffs. Validation cohort showed consistent results.
Conclusion %FMM correlated well with angiographic scores and had a potential to be used as a non-invasive alternative to the angiographic scores. The integration of the severity of stenosis and the amount of subtended myocardium may improve the detection of clinically significant coronary artery stenosis.

Background/Introduction: Pathophysiology of aortic stenosis (AS) and several previous studies suggested the potential role of angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) in patients with AS.
Purpose
We aimed to investigate the effects of Fimasartan, an ARB, on exercise capacity and progression of AS in patients with moderate to severe AS.
Methods
We conducted a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 32 normotensive or controlled-hypertensive patients with moderate or severe AS. Study participants were randomized to Fimasartan 30 mg to 60 mg daily (n = 14) or placebo (n = 18) for 1 year, and underwent cardiopulmonary exercise test, 6-minute walk test, and echocardiography at 0, 6, and 12 months, with follow-up data available in 29 subjects.
Results
Significant reductions in blood pressures were observed in the Fimasartan group but not in the placebo group. Two of the 14 patients in the Fimasartan group withdrew the study due to mild symptoms probably related with the decreased blood pressure, and one patient decline the study protocol. After the 12-month treatment, the peak oxygen consumption (VO2; the primary outcome) in the Fimasartan group was significantly decreased (from 28.3 ± 5.9 to 25.4 ± 3.8 mL/min/kg, P = 0.021) but not in the placebo group (P for interaction = 0.046) (Figure 1A). The severity of AS showed a gradual progression in both groups, without inter-group differences (mean transaortic pressure; Fimasartan group, +4.0 ± 3.8 mmHg/year; placebo group, +5.3 ± 6.2 mmHg/year; P for interaction = 0.429) (Figure 1B). Parameters of left ventricular systolic and diastolic function did not change in both groups.
Conclusions
The use of ARB impaired exercise capacity in patients with moderate or severe AS, and did not prevent the progression of AS. However, due to the small number of participants, further studies are required to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Purpose Direct application of atmospheric-pressure plasma jets (APPJs) has been established as an effective method of microbial decontamination. This study aimed to investigate the bactericidal effect of direct application of an APPJ using helium gas (He-APPJ) on Porphyromonas gingivalis biofilms on sandblasted and acid-etched (SLA) titanium discs. Methods On the SLA discs covered by P. gingivalis biofilms, an APPJ with helium (He) as a discharge gas was applied at 3 different time intervals (0, 3, and 5 minutes). To evaluate the effect of the plasma itself, the He gas-only group was used as the control group. The bactericidal effect of the He-APPJ was determined by the number of colony-forming units. Bacterial viability was observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and bacterial morphology was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results As the plasma treatment time increased, the amount of P. gingivalis decreased, and the difference was statistically significant. In the SEM images, compared to the control group, the bacterial biofilm structure on SLA discs treated by the He-APPJ for more than 3 minutes was destroyed. In addition, the CLSM images showed consistent results. Even in sites distant from the area of direct He-APPJ exposure, decontamination effects were observed in both SEM and CLSM images. Conclusions He-APPJ application was effective in removing P. gingivalis biofilm on SLA titanium discs in an in vitro experiment.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Left atrial global longitudinal strain (LA GLS) by 2-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography is a useful tool to assess LA function and left ventricular (LV) diastolic function. The authors assessed prognostic value of LA GLS, and other diastolic functional parameters in patients undergoing hemodialysis.
Methods
A total of 78 (49 male) patients undergoing hemodialysis who checked echocardiography due to heart failure (HF) symptoms were included for this analysis. Echocardiography wasperformed at the same day of, and before hemodialysis session. Besides conventional echocardiographic measurements, GLS of the LA and the LV were checked and compared. Incidence of rehospitalization due to HF symptoms during mean follow up duration of 381.4±197.5 days was investigated and echocardiographic parameters were compared between patients who experienced rehospitalization and who did not.
Results
16 (20.1%) patients experienced rehospitalization due to HF. HF rehospitalization group had significantly low baseline LV ejection fraction (55.7±7.2 vs. 61.3±7.1%, p=0.006) and LV GLS (14.7±3.4 vs. 18.2±3.9%, p=0.002), while LV geometry (LV end-diastolic volume index and LV wall thickness) did not show significant differences. In HF rehospitalization group, baseline LA function and diastolic function were significantly impaired as reflected by LA GLS (18.8±2.6 vs. 23.8±3.6%, p<0.001), E/E' ratio (20.8±3.3 vs. 15.8±4.6%, p<0.001), and right ventricular systolic pressure (61.4±9.6 vs. 53.4±12.8%, p=0.022). LA end-systolic volume index was not significantly different between the 2 groups. Among various echocardiographic parameters, receiver operation characteristic curve analysis revealed that LA GLS had the strongest power (cutoff value 20.6%, sensitivity 0.813 and specificity 0.790, area under curve 0.849) in prediction of future rehospitalization due to HF.
Predictor of future HF: ROC analysis
Conclusions
The present study demonstrated that functional changes of the LA as measured by LA GLS before hemodialysis session can be used as an echocardiographic parameter to predict future rehospitalization due to HF. Further studies are required to evaluate prognostic value of LA function in predicting other cardiovascular events in hemodialysis patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Regardless of diabetes mellitus (DM), admission hyperglycemia is not uncommon in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). Although DM is a well-known predictor of mortality in AHF, the impacts of admission hyperglycemia on clinical outcomes in non-DM patients with AHF have been poorly studied. The aim of this study, therefore, was to compare the impact of admission hyperglycemia on long-term clinical outcomes in AHF patients with or without DM.
Methods
Among 5,625 AHF patients enrolled in a nationwide registry, a total of 5,541 patients were enrolled and divided into 2 groups; DM group (n=2,125, 70.4±11.4 years) vs. non-DM group (n=3,416, 67.3±16.0 years). Each group were further divided into 2 groups according to the presence of admission hyperglycemia (admission serum glucose level >200mg/dl); admission hyperglycemia (n=248) and no hyperglycemia (n=3,168) in non-DM; admission hyperglycemia (n=799) and no hyperglycemia (n=1,326) in DM. All-cause death and hospitalization due to HF (HHF) during 1-year follow-up were compared.
Results
Death was developed in 1,220 patients (22.2%) including 269 inhospital deaths (4.9%) during 1-year of follow-up. Death rate were significantly higher in DM than in non-DM group (24.8% vs 20.5%, p<0.001), however there was no difference in inhospital death (5.1% vs 4.7%, p=0.534). Both inhospital death (7.6% vs. 4.2%, p<0.001) and 1-year death (26.2% vs. 21.3%, p=0.001) were more frequent in AHF patients with hyperglycemia. On Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis, however, admission hyperglycemia was associated with significantly higher death (p<0.001 by log-rank test) and rehospitalization (p=0.006 by log-rank test) in non-DM group, but not in DM group. In non-DM group, admission hyperglycemia was an independent predictor of 1-year mortality (HR 1.46, 95% CI 1.10–1.93, p=0.009).
Conclusion
DM was a significant predictor of long-term mortality in patients with AHF. Admission hyperglycemia was associated with both higher inhospital and 1-year mortality. The present study also demonstrated that admission hyperglycemia is an independent predictor of mortality in non-DM patients with AHF, but not in DM patients. In addition to the presence of DM, admission hyperglycemia would be a useful marker in the risk stratification of AHF, especially in non-DM patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (HSOS) is a well-known fatal complication of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), but the impact of cardiac abnormalities on the occurrence of HSOS has been poorly evaluated. Therefore, the authors investigated whether the structural changes or dysfunction of the heart before HCT is associated with the future occurrence of HSOS.
Methods
A total of 92 patients who underwent HCT were divided into 2 groups; HSOS group (n=11, 6 males, 53.8±15.9 years) vs no HSOS group (n=81, 51 males, 48.6±14.7 years). According to the modified Seattle criteria, HSOS was defined as otherwise unexplained occurrence of 2 or more of the following events within 20 days of HCT; serum total bilirubin >2 mg/dL, hepatomegaly or right upper quadrant pain, sudden weight gain due to fluid accumulation (>2% of baseline body weight). Echocardiography examinations were performed 1 month before HCT, and echocardiographic findings were compared between the groups.
Results
HSOS was developed in 11 patients (12.0%). HSOS group had significantly larger left ventricular end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVI) (65.2±4.9 vs 53.2±6.9 ml/m2, p<0.001) and relatively worse systolic function than no HSOS group (LV ejection fraction: 56.4±3.4 vs 65.1±5.9%, p<0.001, LV global longitudinal strain: −17.9±1.4 vs −20.1±2.0%, p=0.001). LV diastolic functional parameters were also significantly worse in HSOS group than in no HSOS group (E/E' ratio: 11.3±1.8 vs 9.1±2.0, p=0.002, left atrial global longitudinal strain: 27.7±3.3 vs 34.9±5.9%, p<0.001). However, left atrial volume index was not different between the groups (30.8±2.8 vs 29.0±3.3 ml/m2, p=0.078). By receiver operation characteristic curve analysis, among significantly different variables, LVEDVI was the most powerful predictor for HSOS, and the optimal cutoff value was 59.25 mL/m2. (81.8% sensitivity and 77.8% specificity, AUC 0.909).
Predictor of HSOS: ROC analysis
Conclusions
The present study demonstrated that structural changes or dysfunction of the heart are more prevalent in patients with HSOS after HCT and larger LVEDVI, among them, can be a useful predictor of upcoming HSOS. Routine echocardiographic study before HCT would be useful to identify high risk group for HSOS, and the development of HSOS should be carefully monitored in HCT patients with cardiac structural changes or dysfunction on echocardiography.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a rarely reported complication of multiple myeloma (MM). PH of MM is usually mild to moderate and can be secondary to a variety of conditions, including left ventricular dysfunction, diastolic dysfunction, chronic heart failure, treatment-related toxicity, thrombophilic condition and precapillary involvement. However, only few reports regarding PH in MM incidence and prognosis exist up to now.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors of transthoracic echocardiography-defined PH and its impact on clinical outcome in patients with MM.
Methods
A total of 277 MM patients was included and divided into 2 groups–those non-pulmonary hypertension (PH) or those with PH, based on the results of the transthoracic echocardiography (TTE); PH group (n=143, 60.9±9.2 years, 68 males) versus non-PH group (n=134, 55.9±11.5 years, 72 males). We analyzed propensity score matching and multiple imputation method were used to deal with the missing data in echocardiographic characteristics.
Results
During the follow-up period (median 618 days), all-cause death occurred in 79 (28.5%) patients and 41 patients (14.8%) died from cardiovascular causes (including acute decompensated heart failure, fatal MI, sudden cardiac arrest). In the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis of crude population and propensity-matched population, cumulative overall survival and cardiovascular death (CVD)-free survival were significantly lower in the PH group than in the non-PH group (p<0.001). In propensity-matched population, estimated pulmonary artery pressure >35mmHg in TTE, congestive heart failure, and DM were significant independent predictors of all-cause death.
KM curves in MM stratified by PH
Conclusion
This study demonstrates that the presence of PH, congestive heart failure, and DM is an independent prognostic factor for all-cause death in MM patients with MM. These results highlight the risk associated cardiovascular disease in MM patients and emphasize that management strategies that prevent deterioration of cardiac function are essential.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare the survival rates of implants placed following 1-stage or 2-stage maxillary sinus floor augmentation by the lateral window technique (SFALW) performed on residual bone of <4 mm. METHODS This study was conducted based on dental records and radiographs obtained from patients who received SFALW from March 2006 to June 2014, being followed up between March 2006 and December 2017. They were divided into 1-stage and 2-stage groups according to the SFALW performed. Statistical analysis was performed to evaluate whether a significant difference existed between 1-stage and 2-stage SFALW in terms of survival rates. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to examine the influence of multiple variables on implant failure. RESULTS A total of 395 implants (156 implants in the 1-stage group, 239 implants in the 2-stage group) in 167 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Among them, 13 implants (five implants in the 1-stage group, eight implants in the 2-stage group) failed. No significant difference was found in the 10-year cumulative survival rate of implants between the 1-stage group and the 2-stage group (96.8% and 92.5%, respectively, P = 0.656). Multivariable logistic regression analysis demonstrated that implant failure was significantly influenced by implant length and functional time following prosthetic loading. CONCLUSIONS The 10-year cumulative survival rates showed no statistically significant difference between implants following 1-stage and 2-stage maxillary SFALW performed on residual bone height of <4 mm.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint blockade with Programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/PD-L1 inhibitors has been effective in various malignancies and is considered as a standard treatment modality for patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, emerging evidence show that PD-1/PD-L1 blockade can lead to hyperprogressive disease (HPD), a flair-up of tumor growth linked to dismal prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence of HPD and identify the determinants associated with HPD in patients with NSCLC treated with PD-1/PD-L1 blockade. PATIENTS AND METHODS We enrolled patients with recurrent and/or metastatic NSCLC treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors between April 2014 and November 2018. Clinicopathologic variables, dynamics of tumor growth, and treatment outcomes were analyzed in patients with NSCLC who received PD-1/PD-L1 blockade. HPD was defined according to tumor growth kinetics (TGK), tumor growth rate (TGR), and time to treatment failure (TTF). Immunophenotyping of peripheral blood CD8+ T lymphocytes was conducted to explore the potential predictive biomarkers of HPD. RESULTS A total of 263 patients were analyzed. HPD was observed in 55 (20.9%), 54 (20.5%), and 98 (37.3%) patients according to the TGK, TGR, and TTF. HPD meeting both TGK and TGR criteria was associated with worse progression-free survival [hazard ratio (HR) 4.619; 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.868-7.440] and overall survival (HR, 5.079; 95% CI, 3.136-8.226) than progressive disease without HPD. There were no clinicopathologic variables specific for HPD. In the exploratory biomarker analysis with peripheral blood CD8+ T lymphocytes, a lower frequency of effector/memory subsets (CCR7-CD45RA- T cells among the total CD8+ T cells) and a higher frequency of severely exhausted populations (TIGIT+ T cells among PD-1+CD8+ T cells) were associated with HPD and inferior survival rate. CONCLUSION HPD is common in NSCLC patients treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. Biomarkers derived from rationally designed analysis may successfully predict HPD and worse outcomes, meriting further investigation of HPD.

Abstract
To reduce the possibility of cardiac tamponade, a rare but lethal complication of central venous catheters, the tip of the central venous catheter should be located above the cephalic limit of the pericardial reflection, not only above the superior vena cava-right atrium junction. This study was performed to measure the superior vena cava lengths above and below the pericardial reflection in cardiac surgical patients. Cardiac surgical patients (n=61; 27 male), whose age [mean±SD (range)] was 47±15 (15–75) years, were studied. The intrapericardial and extrapericardial lengths, and the length of the medial duplicated part were measured separately. The whole vertical lengths of the superior vena cava on either side were calculated respectively by adding the intra-and extrapericardial and medial duplication lengths. The lateral extrapericardial was 29.1±6.5 (Mean±SD) (9–49) mm (range), and lateral extrapericardial length was 32.6±6.9 (20–53) mm. The medial extrapericardial length was 23.3±5.0 (11–39) mm, medical duplicated length was 7.2±3.3 (4–20) mm, and medial intrapericardial was 28.3±7.0 (20–52) mm. The averaged superior vena cava length of both sides was 60.3±9.0 (44.5–90) mm. Almost half of the superior vena cava was found to be within the pericardium and half out. This information may be helpful in deciding how far a central venous catheter should be withdrawn beyond the superior vena cava-right atrial junction during right atrial electrocardiographic guided insertion, and in the prediction of optimal central venous catheter insertion depth.

Abstract
Background:
Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease that can result in destruction of the
tooth attachment apparatus. Therefore, periodontal tissue regeneration is currently an important focus of
research in the field. Approaches using stem cells and reprogrammed cells, such as induced pluripotent
stem cells (iPSCs) or trans-differentiated cells, represent the cutting edge in periodontal regeneration,
and have led to many trials for their clinical application.
Objectives and Results:
In this review, we consider all available stem cell sources, methods to obtain
the cells, their capability to differentiate into the desired cells, and the extent of their utilization in
periodontal regeneration. In addition, we introduce the new concepts of using iPSCs and transdifferentiated
cells for periodontal regeneration. Finally, we discuss the promise of tissue engineering
for improving cell therapy outcomes for periodontal regeneration.
Conclusions:
Despite their limitations, iPSCs and trans-differentiated cells may be promising cell
sources for periodontal tissue regeneration. Further collaborative investigation is required for the effective
and safe application of these cells in combination with tissue engineering elements, like scaffolds
and biosignals.

Abstract
Purpose Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) share a similar inflammatory pathogenesis. Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) can induce anticyclic-citrullinated peptide autoantibodies (anti-CCP antibodies), a key factor in the development of RA. This study aimed at evaluating the relationships between the 2 diseases and identifying the clinical implications thereof, with a focus on periodontal pathogens in Korean adults. Methods A total of 260 RA patients and 86 age- and sex-matched control patients without arthritis were enrolled in this prospective cross-sectional study. Periodontal indices and the prevalence and amount of periodontal pathogens were compared between the groups. Correlations between periodontal and RA indices were examined, as were correlations between 9 periodontal pathogens and RA indices. Results The RA group had significantly higher values than the control group for all investigated periodontal indices (P<0.05) except the number of teeth. The gingival index (GI) was correlated with the disease activity score 28 (DAS28) (r=0.125, P=0.049), RA disease duration (r=0.253, P<0.001), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (r=0.162, P=0.010), and anti-CCP antibody titer (r=0.205, P=0.004). Probing pocket depth (PPD) was correlated with ESR (r=0.139, P=0.027) and anti-Pg antibody titer (r=0.203, P=0.001). Bleeding on probing (BOP) was correlated with DAS28 (r=0.137, P=0.030), RA disease duration (r=0.202, P=0.001), ESR (r=0.136, P=0.030), anti-Pg antibody titer (r=0.177, P=0.005), and anti-CCP antibody titer (r=0.188, P=0.007). Clinical attachment level (CAL) and periodontitis severity were correlated with anti-Pg antibody titer (the former r=0.201, P=0.002; the latter r=0.175, P=0.006). The quantity of Pg was positively correlated with the serum anti-Pg antibody titer (r=0.148, P=0.020). Conclusions The GI, BOP, and PPD showed positive relationships with several RA indices. The anti-Pg antibody titer had positive relationships with PPD, BOP, CAL, and periodontitis severity. Thus, increasing values of periodontal indices could be used as a risk indicator of disease development in RA patients, and an increasing anti-Pg antibody titer could be considered as a warning sign in RA patients suffering with periodontitis.

Abstract
Whether or not epitaxially grown superconducting films have the same bulk-like superconducting properties is an important concern. We report the structure and the electronic properties of epitaxially grown Ba(Fe1-x Co x )2As2 films using scanning tunneling microscopy and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS). This film showed a different surface structure, [Formula: see text]R45° reconstruction, from those of as-cleaved surfaces from bulk crystals. The electronic structure of the grown film is different from that in bulk, and it is notable that the film exhibits the same superconducting transport properties. We found that the superconducting gap at the surface is screened at the Ba layer surface in STS measurements, and the charge density wave was observed at the surface in sample in the superconducting state.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the capacity of single and combined applications of the bark of the stems and roots of Magnolia officinalis Rehd. et Wils. (Magnoliae Cortex) and Zea mays L. (maize) to modulate inflammation in RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with Porphyromonas gingivalis. METHODS RAW 264.7 cells were stimulated with P. gingivalis, and Magnoliae Cortex and/or maize was added. Cytotoxicity and the capacity to modulate inflammation were determined with a methylthiazol tetrazolium (MTT) assay, nitrite production, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and western blotting. RESULTS Treatment with Magnoliae Cortex and/or maize inhibited nuclear transcription factor κB (NF-κB) pathway activation and nuclear p44/42 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) protein expression in P. gingivalis-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Moreover, the treatments suppressed cytokines (prostaglandin E2 [PGE2], interleukin [IL]-1β, and IL-6) and nitrite production. CONCLUSIONS Both Magnoliae Cortex and maize exerted an anti-inflammatory effect on P. gingivalis-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells, and this effect was more pronounced when the extracts were combined. These findings show that these extracts may be beneficial for slowing the progression of periodontal disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To enhance myogenic differentiation in pulp cells isolated from extracted premolars by epigenetic modification using a DNA demethylation agent, 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza), and to evaluate the potent stimulatory effect of 5-Aza-treated pulp cell injection for craniofacial muscle regeneration in vivo. SETTING AND SAMPLE POPULATION Pulp cells were isolated from premolars extracted for orthodontic purposes from four adults (age range, 18-22.1 years). MATERIAL AND METHODS Levels of myogenic differentiation and functional contraction response in vitro were compared between pulp cells with or without pre-treatment of 5-Aza. Changes in muscle regeneration in response to green fluorescent protein (GFP)-labelled myogenic pulp cell injection in vivo were evaluated using a cardiotoxin (CTX)-induced muscle injury model of the gastrocnemius as well as the masseter muscle in mice. RESULTS Pre-treatment of 5-Aza in pulp cells stimulated myotube formation, myogenic differentiation in terms of desmin and myogenin expression, and the level of collagen gel contraction. The local injection of 5-Aza pre-treated myogenic pulp cells was engrafted into the host tissue and indicated signs of enhanced muscle regeneration in both the gastrocnemius and the masseter muscles. CONCLUSION The epigenetic modification of pulp cells from extracted premolars and the local injection of myogenic pulp cells may stimulate craniofacial muscles regeneration in vivo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Psychological aspect and quality of life should be considered in treating patients with psoriasis. OBJECTIVE We sought to ascertain which clinical characteristics including presence of exposed lesions are associated with impairment of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with psoriasis. METHODS The EPI-PSODE study was a nationwide, multicenter, cross-sectional study conducted in Korea that included 1260 adult patients with psoriasis. In addition to clinical characteristics including presence of exposed lesions, data were collected using the Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) Screening and Evaluation (PASE), Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), MOS 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire Psoriasis (WPAI: PSO) and Medication Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ). RESULTS Patients with a DLQI score > 5 (n = 990) were younger, had an earlier onset of psoriasis, scored higher on the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI), had higher body surface area (BSA) and had higher PASE scores than patients with DLQI ≤ 5 (n = 266). The group of patients with exposed lesions (n = 871) were younger and male predominance, earlier onset of psoriasis, longer disease duration, higher PASI/BSA score and a higher proportion with drinking and smoking history each than the group of patients without exposed lesions (n = 389). Presence of exposed lesions negatively influenced DLQI, 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) (mental component), presenteeism, total work productivity impairment and total activity impairment in the WPAI: PSO. In multiple regression model, PASI score was the only variable which was significantly associated with all HRQoL measures. Presence of exposed lesions was a significant factor affecting DLQI and SF-36 (mental). CONCLUSION The presence of exposed lesions has a negative impact on quality of life, mental health and work productivity. Therefore, effective treatments are particularly needed for psoriasis patients with exposed lesions.
