The aim of this study was to analyze clinical treatment and outcome of injection MTX for Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP). We use retrospective study to compare the time in CSP of blood chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG) and progesterone drooped to the normal, blood flow resistance and hospitalization days. 34 patients diagnosed with CSP were reviewed in our department from 2000 to 2013, including cli...

Breast cancer is well known as a malignancy being strongly influenced by female steroids. Pregnancy is a protective factor against breast cancer. Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is a candidate hormone which could mediate this antitumoral effect of pregnancy. For this review article, all original research articles on the role of HCG in breast cancer were considered, which are listed in PubMed...

background: measurement of serum β-hcg concentration commonly used to diagnose tubal ectopic pregnancy (ep) and follow up patients treated conservatively.objective: the aim of this study was to determine the predictive value of maternal serum β-hcg concentration in ruptured tubal ectopic pregnancy to help physicians identify those women who are at greatest risk.materials and methods: this is a ...

In circumstances such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or in patients with luteal phase defect, one needs to ensure the establishment of pregnancy as soon as possible. At the same time, a question arises: How can a physician make sure that the β-hCG is of an endogenous source and not the residue of the prescribed drugs (hCG)? In this article we have studied the elimination time of 1M inject...

OBJECTIVES To reevaluate both discriminatory and threshold levels associated with visualization of gestational sacs, yolk sacs, and fetal poles in patients presenting with vaginal bleeding, pain, or vaginal bleeding and pain in the first trimester of pregnancy using current ultrasonographic technology. METHODS We reviewed the records of patients with first-trimester vaginal bleeding, pelvic p...

The diagnosis of acephalocystis racemosa and missed abortion based on transvaginal ultrasonography and serum β-HCG monitoring was studied in this paper. The main contents of variance analysis were mainly introduced and at the same time, the main contents and research methods of hydatidiform mole detection and missed abortion diagnosis were also expounded. The results show that there are some di...

Human luteinizing hormone (hLH) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) are human glycoprotein hormones each consisting of two subunits, an identical α-subunit and a unique β-subunit, that form noncovalent heterodimers. Structurally, β-hCG shares a high degree of sequence similarity with β-hLH, including a common N-glycosylation site at the N-terminus but differs mainly in the presence of an ext...

BACKGROUND Initial low maternal serum β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) is a good predictor of early pregnancy demise. Our objective was to determine its predictive value in determining the long-term outcome in ICSI pregnancies. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was designed at the Saudi Center for Assisted Reproduction. Two hundred and sixty-one women with ICSI pregnancies were follo...

background and objective: hyperemesis gravidarum (hg) is defined as vomiting sufficiently severe to produce weight loss, dehydration, electrolyte abnormalities. interleukin-6 (il-6), a pro-inflammatory and trophoblast-derived cytokine has ability to induce trophoblasts to secrete human chorionic gonadotropin (hcg). the purpose of our study was to assay the level of il-6 and β-hcg in serum of pr...
