Cost-Effectiveness Of Recombinant Human Follicle Stimulating Hormone Biosimilars In Portugal

Overnight radioimmunoassay of human follicle-stimulating hormone.

A radioimmunoassay procedure for follicle-stimulating hormone in serum has been developed in which the assay mixture is incubated at 37#{176}C for a total of 22 h, rather than at 4#{176}C for 4-7 days. The withinassay coefficients of variation for the 37#{176}C and 4#{176}C methods, respectively, are 7.7% and 5.0%, while the between-assay variations are 13.8% and 9.9%. Comparison of values for ...

The Correlations of Anti-Mullerian Hormone, Follicle-Stimulating Hormone and Antral Follicle Count in Different Age Groups of Infertile Women

Follicle-stimulating hormone and human spermatogenesis.

The role of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in the control of spermatogenesis is not well established in any species, including man. We studied the effect of an experimentally-induced, selective FSH deficiency on sperm production in normal men. After a 3-mo control period, five normal men received testosterone enanthate (T) 200 mg i. m. weekly to suppress luteinizing hormone (LH) and FSH, un...

Meta-analysis on recombinant versus urinary follicle stimulating hormone.

A recent meta-analysis (Daya and Gunby, 1999) on recombin-ant versus urinary follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH versus uFSH) deserves methodological comment. The a priori definition of eligibility criteria for studies to be included in a meta-analysis are central and must be systematic. It was up to the authors to decide whether their search would be extended to include all unpublished studies,...

P-101: Advantages of Recombinant Follicle- Stimulating Hormone over Human Menopausal Gonadotropin for Ovarian Stimulation in Intrauterine Insemination: A Randomized Clinical Trial in Unexplained Infertility

Background To compare two different gonadotropin preparations, human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) and recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH), combined with clomiphene citrate (CC) in women with unexplained infertility undergoing intrauterine insemination (IUI). MaterialsAndMethods In this prospective clinical trial, couples prepared for IUI cycles were randomly allocated to two groups...
