( Obstet Gynecol . 2021;137:355–370) Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) refers to rare processes originating from the placenta that require timely and appropriate management. GTD includes partial or complete hydatidiform moles (HM), as well severe gestational neoplasia (GTN) related tumors. Obstetrician-gynecologists are more likely be involved in care of women with HM who have unclear dia...

Exponential interpolation is a problem in mathematics which can have very useful results in many areas. One area which is particularly of interest here is using exponential interpolation to model human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels in women with gestational trophoblastic disease as it has been previously reported that the hCG measurements in these women follow an exponential curve.

BACKGROUND Solitary fibrous tumors are rare tumors of mesenchymal origins, most commonly seen arising from the pleural lining of the lungs. These are generally benign tumors, which in rare cases have been identified to be associated with multiple para-neoplastic syndromes. CASE REPORT This is a case of a solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura in a 49 year old female which was found to be associ...

To investigate the role of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the ovulatory process, SOD isozymes and their mRNAs were determined in the ovary of 22-day-old rats. After treatment with pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), ovarian activity of Mn-SOD decreased markedly while Cu/Zn-SOD remained unchanged. However, the ovarian level of mRNA for Mn-SOD markedly i...

the purification of biomolecules is a necessary step in many biochemical researches. in this regard, developments of convenient, specific and low cost methods of purification are of particular interest. given the human hemoglobin (hb) affinity toward some charged carbohydrates, interaction of this molecule with human chorionic gonadotropin (hcg) which is a glycoprotein hormone containing sialic...

Aim. To analyse the levels of serum beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) and pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) in pregnant women without fetal chromosomal abnormalities with trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) or 18 (Edwards syndrome). Materials Methods. We performed a retrospective analysis biochemical parameters 1214 who had previously undergone karyotyping as part prenatal postnatal...

The present work aimed to identify the best doses of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) needed to induce oocyte maturation of Micropogonias furnieri and to characterize ovarian dynamics during the periovulatory period. Adult M. furnieri females with fully developed ovaries were injected intraperitoneally with four different doses of hCG. The gonadotropin response was succeeded by analyzing morp...

We detected pregnancy related new molecule, human chorionic gonadotropin related protein (hCGRP) in the urine of a pregnant women by using a monoclonal antibody against the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). This study examined the effectiveness of urinary hCGRP quantification in diagnosing ectopic pregnancy. This study included 40 normal pregnant women and 25 patients with ectopic pregnancy. ...

Binding of 125I-human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) to homogenates of the human corpora lutea of the menstrual cycle and pregnancy was examined in vitro. While corpora lutea of the menstrual cycle bound 125I-HCG specifically, the corpora lutea of pregnancy from 8 weeks' gestation bound little or none of the added 125I-HCG. In the corpus luteum of the menstrual cycle the dissociation constant for...
