Maternal first trimester serum levels of free-beta human chorionic gonadotrophin and male genital anomalies.
STUDY QUESTION Are maternal first trimester levels of serum free-beta hCG associated with the development of hypospadias or undescended testis (UDT) in boys? SUMMARY ANSWER Overall, first trimester maternal levels of serum free-beta hCG are not associated with hypospadias or UDT. However, elevated levels were found in severe phenotypes (proximal hypospadias and bilateral UDT) suggesting an al...
متن کاملThe expression of Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (β-HCG) in human urothelial carcinoma
INTRODUCTION Studies regarding the immuno-histological expression and relevance of Beta-Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (=-HCG) in urothelial carcinoma are few. There is also no clear cut way of predicting exactly which superficial urothelial carcinomas would subsequently recur or progress and which muscle-invasive urothelial tumours would progress. The objective of the study was to study the imm...
متن کاملHuman chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) versus magnesium sulfate to arrest preterm
Introduction: Considering the high incidence of preterm labor and its known complications, and that human myometrium contains receptors for human chronic gonadotropin (hCG) and that hCG can inhibit myometrial contractions on vitro, made me study treating effects of hCG on preterm labor. This clinical trial study was carried out to compare the effect of hCG, and magnesium sulfate (mgso4) on pre...
متن کاملChoriocarcinoma-like human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) and HCG bioactivity during the first trimester of pregnancy.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the distribution of choriocarcinoma-like human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) isoforms during first trimester pregnancy and their relationship with in-vitro HCG bioactivity. This was done by means of a retrospective analysis of patients' sera with first trimester normal intrauterine and abnormal (ectopic) pregnancies. Serum samples were obtained from 3...
متن کاملHuman chorionic gonadotrophin-beta gene sequences in women with disorders of HCG production.
Women with recurrent abortion, primary unexplained infertility, and gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) manifest disordered human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) secretion. Mutations in the HCG beta/luteinizing hormone (LH) beta gene complex could cause aberrant HCG production in these disorders. The purpose of this study was to determine whether HCG beta gene deletions occur in women with ...
