Abstract	An important part of regenerative endodontic procedures involving immature permanent teeth is the regeneration of the pulp-dentin complex with continuous root development. Hydraulic calcium silicate cements (HCSCs) are introduced for the pulpal treatment of immature permanent teeth. The stem-cell-derived secretome recently has been applied for the treatment of various damaged tissues. Here, we evaluated the biocompatibility and osteogenic differentiation of HCSCs combined with secretome on human dental pulp stem cells. In the Cell Counting Kit-8 test and wound healing assays, significantly higher cell viability was observed with secretome application. In alkaline phosphatase analysis, the activity was significantly higher with secretome application in all groups, except for RetroMTA on day 2 and Endocem MTA Premixed on day 4. In an Alizarin Red S staining analysis, all groups with secretome application had significantly higher staining values. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction results showed that the day 7 expression of

Abstract	Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant global health concern. Accurate detection of latent TB infection is crucial for effective control and prevention. We aimed to assess the performance of an interferon-gamma release assay blood test (QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus [QFT-Plus]) in various clinical contexts and identify conditions that affect its results. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 31 000 QFT-Plus samples collected from 26 000 subjects at a tertiary hospital in South Korea over a 4-year period and compared the rates of positivity and indeterminate results across diverse clinical situations. We also analysed the contribution of the QuantiFERON TB2 tube to the test's sensitivity and determined optimal cutoff values for 3 hematologic parameters to distinguish false-negative results. These cutoff values were validated in a separate cohort of subjects with microbiologically confirmed subclinical TB. Results: Rates of QFT-Plus positivity and indeterminate results were disparate across diagnoses. The TB2 tube increased QFT-Plus sensitivity by 4.1% (95% CI, 1.1%-7.0%) in patients with subclinical TB. Absolute lymphocyte count ≤1.19 × 109/L, absolute neutrophil count ≥5.88 × 109/L, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio ≥4.33 were effective criteria to discriminate false-negative QFT-Plus results. Application of the hematologic criteria, individually or combined with mitogen response <10 IU/mL, substantially improved performance in the main study cohort and the validation cohort. Conclusions: These findings highlight the influence of clinical context and patient hematologic profiles on QFT-Plus results. To minimise neglected latent TB infections due to false-negative QFT-Plus results, serial retesting is advisable in patients with severe lymphopenia or neutrophilia, particularly when the mitogen response is <10 IU/mL.

Abstract	Stem cell-derived exosomes are efficient and safe therapeutic tools for transferring endogenous biological cargo or functional biomolecules for regenerative medicine. The regulation of inflammation and angiogenesis plays a pivotal role in wound healing and tissue regeneration. The purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic roles of human adipose mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes, focusing on the underlying mechanisms. Exosomes inhibited LPS-induced inflammation by activating ROCK1 and PTEN expression. Moreover, microRNAs (miR-132 and miR-146a) released from exosomes upregulated the expression of pro-angiogenic genes and promoted proliferation activity and tube formation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Exosomal effects were verified using ROCK1/PTEN inhibitors for anti-inflammation and miR-132/miR-146a inhibitors for pro-angiogenesis. Our findings suggest that exosomes exert anti-inflammatory effects by targeting the ROCK1/PTEN pathway and exhibit pro-angiogenic effects via delivery of miR-132 and miR-146a. Taken together, these results suggest that exosomes may be promising therapeutic candidates for curing diseases involved in inflammation and angiogenesis.

Abstract	Background: Understanding when and why endodontic treatments fail could help clinicians make prognoses and thus improve treatment outcomes. This study was aimed to assess potential predictors of early endodontic treatment failure. We explored factors contributing to the failure of initial root canal treatment were explored, with a specific emphasis on evaluating the influence of the time elapsed since the initial treatment. Methods: This retrospective cohort study enrolled 1262 patients who sought endodontic treatment at our department and 175 patients were included for analysis. Potential causes of endodontic treatment failure were investigated, such as inadequate obturation quality, inadequate coronal status, the presence of additional untreated canals, anatomical complexity, instrument separation, iatrogenic perforation, cracks, and endodontic-periodontal lesions. The patients were divided into "short-term" and "long-term" groups depending on the time that had passed since the initial treatment (i.e., < 5 and > 10 years, respectively). The causes of failure in the short-term and long-term group were analyzed and compared using logistic regression analyses. Subgroup analysis was performed according to the number of years since the initial treatment in the short-term group to further investigate the association between the time and cause of failure (i.e., < 1, 2, 3, and 4 years, respectively). Results: Untreated additional canals were present in 21.7% of all cases, and in 36.9 and 6.4% of cases in the short-term and long-term groups, respectively. Multivariable analysis showed that the presence of untreated additional canals was significantly associated with short-term compared to long-term failure. Untreated additional canals were also associated with endodontic failure within 1, 2, 3, and 4 years. Conclusions: The presence of untreated additional canals was a predictor of endodontic failure within 5 years following initial root canal treatment. To optimize long-term prognosis, it is important to detect and treat all root canals during the initial treatment.

Abstract	We evaluated the overall performance of the Cobas 6800 BKV test in detecting BK virus (BKV). We examined the imprecision of the Cobas 6800 BKV test and compared the qualitative and quantitative results obtained from the Cobas 6800 BKV test and the Real-Q BKV quantification assay. We assessed 88 plasma and 26 urine samples collected between September and November 2022 from patients with BKV infection using the Real-Q BKV quantitative assay. The lognormal coefficient of variation indicated that the inter-assay precision of the Cobas 6800 BKV test ranged from 13.86 to 33.83%. A strong correlation was observed between the quantitative results obtained using the Cobas 6800 BKV test and the Real-Q BKV quantification assay for plasma samples. The Spearman's rank correlation coefficients (ρ) for plasma, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) media-stabilized urine, and raw urine samples were 0.939, 0.874, and 0.888, respectively. Our analyses suggest that the Cobas 6800 BKV test is suitable for clinical applications owing to the strong correlation between the results obtained using this test and the Real-Q BKV quantification assay in plasma and urine samples. Furthermore, utilizing fresh raw urine samples can be a viable approach for the Cobas 6800 BKV test as it is less labor- and time-intensive.

Abstract	The ideal treatment option for immature necrotic permanent teeth is regeneration of the pulp-dentin complex. Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), the conventional cement used for regenerative endodontic procedures, induces hard tissue repair. Various hydraulic calcium silicate cements (HCSCs) and enamel matrix derivative (EMD) also promote osteoblast proliferation. The purpose of the present study was to determine the osteogenic and dentinogenic potential of commercially distributed MTA and HCSCs when applied in combination with Emdogain gel on human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). The presence of Emdogain resulted in greater cell viability, and higher alkaline phosphatase activity was detected in the Emdogain-supplemented groups in the early days of cell culture. On qRT-PCR, the groups treated, respectively, with Biodentine and Endocem MTA Premixed in the presence of Emdogain showed an increased expression of the dentin formation marker

Abstract	Blood group antigens, which are prominently expressed in red blood cells, are important in transfusion medicine. The advent of high-throughput genome sequencing technology has facilitated the prediction of blood group antigen phenotypes based on genomic data. In this study, we analyzed data from a large Korean population to provide an updated prevalence of blood group antigen phenotypes, including rare ones. A robust dataset comprising 72,291 single nucleotide polymorphism arrays, 5318 whole-exome sequences, and 4793 whole-genome sequences was extracted from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study, Genome Aggregation Database, and Korean Variant Archive and then analyzed. The phenotype prevalence of clinically significant blood group antigens, including MNSs, RHCE, Kidd, Duffy, and Diego, was predicted through genotype analysis and corroborated the existing literature. We identified individuals with rare phenotypes, including 369 (0.51%) with Fy(a-b+), 188 (0.26%) with Di(a+b-), and 16 (0.02%) with Jr(a-). Furthermore, we calculated the frequencies of individuals with extremely rare phenotypes, such as p (0.000004%), Kell-null (0.000310%), and Jk(a-b-) (0.000438%), based on allele frequency predictions. These findings offer valuable insights into the distribution of blood group antigens in the Korean population and have significant implications for enhancing the safety and efficiency of blood transfusion.

Abstract	Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) transmitted through breast milk poses fatal risks to preterm infants. However, current molecular assay systems often do not accommodate breast milk samples. In this study, we evaluated the analytical and clinical performance of the measurement procedure of CMV load in breast milk utilizing the Cobas CMV test on the Cobas 6,800 system. This was enabled by incorporating a simple independent sample preparation procedure before the application of samples on the automated assay system. Clinical data from electronic medical records were retrospectively analyzed. Breast milk samples from mothers of preterm infants born before 33 weeks of gestation were screened for CMV using the automated assay system. CMV positivity rates in breast milk and neonatal samples and the CMV transmission rate were calculated. Furthermore, to validate the analytical accuracy of the overall measurement procedure with newly obtained residual breast milk samples, the linearity of the measurement procedure was assessed, and a simplified sample preparation method was validated against a conventional method. The CMV positivity rates in maternal breast milk and neonatal samples were 57.8 and 5.2%, respectively. The CMV transmission rate through breast milk was 7.7%. No significant differences in gestational age or birth weight were found between the CMV-negative and CMV-positive neonates. The linearity of the procedure was observed within a range of 1.87-4.73 log IU/mL. The simplified sample preparation method had an equivalent or even improved CMV detection sensitivity than the conventional method. Incorporating a simple independent sample preparation procedure effectively resolved any potential issues regarding the application of breast milk on the automated assay system. Our approach contributed to reduced vertical transmission of CMV by providing a convenient and reliable method for the monitoring of breast milk CMV positivity for clinicians.

Abstract	Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the analytical performance of the cobas 6800 System (Roche Diagnostics) and assess the feasibility of using whole-blood specimens instead of plasma. Methods: The analytical performance of the cobas EBV test (Roche Diagnostics) was evaluated. Thereafter, 120 clinical samples were collected to compare the cobas EBV test and the artus EBV RG PCR Kit (Qiagen). The results of the cobas EBV test conducted using paired plasma as well as 5× and 10× diluted whole-blood specimens were compared with those of the artus EBV RG PCR Kit performed using whole blood. Results: The precision of the cobas EBV test was acceptable, and its linearity was confirmed to be within the range of 2.85 to 6.89 log IU/mL. Cross-reactivity was not observed. The best qualitative agreement (Cohen κ = 0.733) was observed using 5× diluted whole blood; the best quantitative correlation (Spearman correlation coefficient = 0.6865) was observed using 10× diluted whole blood. Conclusions: A significant discrepancy was observed in the results obtained from the 2 assays because of the different specimens used. We observed, however, that diluting whole blood before conducting the cobas EBV test effectively resolved polymerase chain reaction inhibition and viscosity issues, leading to an acceptable correlation with the results from the artus EBV RG PCR Kit conducted using whole blood.

Abstract	The Jra antigen, the only antigen within the JR blood group system, is a high-prevalence red blood cell (RBC) antigen found in over 99 % of the global population. An induced pluripotent stem cell line (YUCMi020-A) was generated from peripheral blood drawn from a Jr(a-) phenotype individual, who was homozygous for a null mutation of ABCG201N.01 (rs72552713, c.376C>T; p.Gln126). The generated line exhibited pluripotent characteristics and no chromosomal aberrations. This cell line will serve as a cell source, enabling us to produce RBCs with the Jr(a-) phenotype in vitro, which can be used for transfusing individuals with anti-Jra antibodies.
