Objective:To investigate the effect of the leaching liquids of the pure titanium porcelain crowns with barium titanate coating on the proliferation of L929 cells,and to evaluate its cytotoxicity level.Methods:The L929 ceils were cultured in vitro with leaching liquids of titanium porcelain specimens with barium titanate coating (group A),and titanium porcelain specimens(group B) for 1,3 and 5 days respectively.RPMI1640 containing 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% phenol was served as the negative(group C) and positive control group(group D),respectively.MTT method was used to test the effects of barium titanate coating on the proliferation of mouse fibroblast L929 cells,the cytotoxicity of the 4 groups was graded.Results:L929 cells of the group showed normal morphology and vigorous growth except group D.During the whole experiment,the absorbance values of group A was greater than that of group C(P <0.05).The cytotoxic gradation of group A grade 0.Conclusion:Titanium porcelain specimens with barium titanate coating has a good cytocompatibility.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ) for nursing workload in emergency intensive care unit (EICU).Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted. Critical patients except for trauma admitted to EICU of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from June 2012 to July 2016 were enrolled. APACHE Ⅱ score and therapeutic intervention scoring system (TISS-28) score were calculated in each case. The relationship between APACHE Ⅱ score and TISS-28 score was analyzed by correlation analysis and curve estimation.Results A total of 1148 patients were enrolled, including 689 male (60.0%), and age of (56±19) years old, APACHE Ⅱ score was 19 (13, 25), and TISS score was 19 (13, 25). The Spearman correlation coefficient between APACHE Ⅱ score and TISS-28 score was 0.849 (P < 0.001), and that among the linear model quadratic model, composite model, growth model, logarithm model, cubic model and exponential modelR2 were 0.669, 0.710, 0.792, 0.764, 0.765, 0.765, respectively (allP < 0.01), and the most suitable description for relationship between APACHE Ⅱ score and TISS-28 score curve was cubic model. The nursing workload was significantly increased when APACHE Ⅱ score ≥30, and it was decreased when APACHE Ⅱ score < 30.Conclusion APACHE Ⅱ was a useful score for predicting the nursing workload in EICU.

OBJECTIVEWolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW) is considered to be an autosomal dominant hereditary disease, but the gene is not identified. The objective of this study was to localize the genetic loci of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
METHODSLinkage analysis between the disease of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and 3 STR (short tandem repeats) markers on 7q3 (D7S505, D7S688, and D7S483) was tested in 3 kindreds of the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (101 numbers in total) by genotyping.
RESULTSWolff-Parkinson-White syndrome was linked to the loci above. The maximum two-point Lod score detected at D7S505 was 6.4 at a recombination fraction (theta) of 0.1; the Lod score of D7S688, D7S483 was 5.3 vs 2.5.
CONCLUSIONThe gene of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is located at 7q3.
