Recombinant versus urinary follicle stimulating hormone for ovarian stimulation in assisted reproduction.
The recent availability of recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH), with its high level of purity and batch-to-batch consistency has made it an attractive alternative to urinary FSH (uFSH) for ovarian stimulation. Several trials have compared the two preparations, but none had sufficient power to detect a clinically meaningful difference in pregnancy rates. The purpose of this study was...
متن کاملRecombinant human FSH versus highly purified urinary FSH: a randomized study in intrauterine insemination with husbands' spermatozoa.
A randomized trial was carried out comparing recombinant FSH (rFSH) and highly purified urinary FSH (uFSH) in intrauterine insemination (IUI) with husbands' spermatozoa. A total of 45 women received rFSH (139 cycles), while 46 women received uFSH (155 cycles). The starting dose was 150 IU/day s.c., beginning on the second day, and on days 6-7 the dose was adjusted according to ovarian response,...
متن کاملA less acidic human follicle-stimulating hormone preparation induces tissue-type plasminogen activator enzyme activity earlier than a predominantly acidic analogue in phenobarbital-blocked pro-oestrous rats.
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) exists in multiple molecular forms. In both experimental animals and in humans the production and secretion of less acidic, short-lived FSH glycoforms significantly increase during the peri-ovulatory period. To gain further insights on the physiological role of these FSH variants, we analysed the ability of two FSH compounds, recombinant FSH (rFSH) and purifie...
متن کاملMeta-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 It was up to the authors to decide whether their search would be extended to include all unpublished studies,...
متن کاملRecombinant FSH in alternative doses or versus urinary gonadotrophins for ovulation induction in subfertility associated with polycystic ovary syndrome: a systematic review based on a Cochrane review.
This paper is based on a Cochrane review published in The Cochrane Library, issue 2, 2001 (see www.CochraneLibrary. net for information) with permission from The Cochrane Collaboration and Update Software. Cochrane reviews are regularly updated as new evidence emerges and in response to comments and criticisms, and The Cochrane Library should be consulted for the most recent version of the revi...
