trophins [OR 0.89 (95% CI 0.65±1.22)]. (Figure 2). In addition, recalculating the clinical pregnancy rate per cycle started after extracting the correct data from the paper of The European and Israeli Study Group on highly puri®ed hMG versus rFSH (2002) would result in OR 95% CI that reached unity, meaning that there is no statistically signi®cant difference between both types of gonadotrophins...

Research in the 1980s pointed to the lower marriage rates of blacks as an important factor contributing to race differences in non-marital fertility. Our analyses update and extend this prior work to investigate whether cohabitation has become an important contributor to this variation. We use data from the 2006-2010 National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG) and to identify the relative contribut...
