THE VALUE OF IMMUNOLOGICAL TESTS IN PREDICTING PREGNANCY OUTCOME
نویسنده
چکیده مقاله:
In addition to ultrasonographic monitoring of folliculogenesis, urinary luteinizing hormone testing, luteal phase endometrial biopsy, serum antiphospholipid antibodies, etc., immunologic tests are recently being used to evaluate reproductive disorders. In this study, sharing of HLA-A, B, C and DR antigens and the presence of antipaternal cytotoxic antibody (APCA) was assessed using microcytotoxicity method. Subjects of the study were 103 infertile couples, 47 fertile couples with 2-3 children and 123 couples with recurrent spontaneous abortions (RSA). The results showed that the presence of antipatemal cytotoxic antibody is associated with fertility rather than infertility (p<0.0001), but sharing of HLA antigens failed to show any significant difference between infertile and fertile couples or couples who experienced spontaneous abortions compared with normal couples. Therefore it appears that HLA antigen sharing is not associated with pregnancy outcome and other antigen(s) may be involved in this process. Assessment of APCA could be useful in predicting the pregnancy outcome.

Dear Editor, Maternal complaint of decreased fetal movement is one of the alarms, which its delayed reporting could be associated with adverse pregnancy outcome. 1 Controlled trials have shown that fetal movement counting by the mother is the only promising antepartum test to reduce the mortality. 2 Reduction of fetal movement could be a marker of poor conditions like fetal hypoxia, stillbirth ...
