In this study,adults of Armillifer agkistrodontis (A.agkistrodontis) were collected from Agkistrodon acutus,and then the eggs were separated to feed mice.In the next step,when the infection model was established,blood serum of infected mice were collected after 1,2 and 3 weeks,respectively.Furthermore,ELISA and dot- ELISA were used to detect the dynamic change of specific antibodies and circulating antigens respectively.The specific antibodies increased from 8th week,reached the top at 12th week,decreased from 16th week,and then maintain at the same level constantly.Meanwhile,the specific antibodies were typed.It is evident that IgM antibody appeared first.However,it was substitute by IgG1 after 16 weeks.Moreover,the circulating antigens have been detected in the 1st week by dot-ELISA.Then,the dilution between 1:8 to 1:128were founded in 3rd week.The highest dilution with 1:256 appeared at 8th week,maintained before 11th week and then decreased gradually,which might provide a significant clinical implication for early diagnosis of circulating antigens.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical effect of the double eyelid blepharoplasty with central minimal incision and with three minimal incisions. Methods: From Jul. 2010 to May 2012, 268 cases (Group A) received double eyelid blepharoplasty with central minimal incision, while 102 cases (Group B) underwent double eyelid blepharoplasty with three minimal incisions. Photos were taken immediately, and 1,2, 4, 8,12 weeks after operation. Operation time, recovery time and postoperative complications were evaluated and recorded. The operation time and recovery time were analyzed by Wilcoxon rank sum test. The postoperative complications were analyzed by chi square test. The satisfactory degree was analyzed by t test.

RESULTSThe operation time in Group A was (25.63 ± 3.74) min, compared with that (29.90 ± 4.13) min in Group B (Z = -8.011, P <0.01). Meanwhile, the recovery time in Group A was shorter than that in Group B (Z = -15.887, P <0.01). The occurrence rate of postoperative complications,including hematoma,recurrence and scar hyperplasia in Group A was also lower than that in Group B. At the same time, the satisfactory degree in Group A was(97.302 ± 1.764), which was higher than that(88.628 10.880) in Group B (t = 12.650, P <0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThe double eyelid blepharoplasty with central minimal incision, which is suitable for all cases except those who has serious blepharochalsais, has more advantages than double eyelid blepharoplasty with three minimal incisions.

Objective To evaluate the in vitro synergistic effect of tetrandrine on ketoconazole against Candida parapsilosis complex.Methods According to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) M27-A3 guidelines,the microdilution checkerboard method was used to evaluate in vitro antifungal activities of ketoconazole alone and in combination with tetrandrine against 21 clinical isolates of Candida parapsilosis complex based on the fractional inhibitory concentration index (FICI).Antifungal effects of the above drugs at different time points were evaluated by the XTT assay,and then time-killing curves were drawn and assessed to investigate the in vitro dynamic antifungal activity.Results The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of tetrandrine and ketoconazole alone against 21 clinical isolates of Candida parapsilosis complex were 32-64 mg/L and 0.031 25-2 mg/L,respectively.When ketoconazole was combined with tetrandrine,MICs of tetrandrine and ketoconazole were reduced to 2-8 mg/L and 0.008-0.25 mg/L respectively,and the FICI ranged from 0.09 to 0.5.The time-killing curves revealed that the fungal growth was delayed obviously in the combination group compared with the ketoconazole alone group and tetrandrine alone group.Conclusion Tetrandrine has obvious synergistic effects on ketoconazole against Candida parapsilosis complex in vitro.
