Delayed appearance of plasmatic chorionic gonadotropin in pregnancies after in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. 1984

Y Englert, and M Roger, and J Belaisch-Allart, and M Jondet, and R Frydman, and J Testart

The detection of pregnancy through the rise of human chorionic gonadotropin hormone secretion, on maternal plasma level, has been studied in normally developed pregnancies following in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET), and compared with two other groups of pregnancies, the first group being pregnancies following artificial insemination with donor semen (AID) in spontaneous cycles ("AID group") and the second group being pregnancies following in vivo fertilization in a stimulated cycle ("stimulated group"). The day of human chorionic gonadotropin detection level significant for pregnancy (Dd) has been first defined and then determined for each pregnancy. Thereafter, mean levels for Dd (Dd) have been compared for each pregnancy group. It has been found that in pregnancies following IVF-ET, Dd is 12.05 +/- 0.8 days after ovulatory stimulus, which is delayed in comparison with spontaneous cycle pregnancies (Dd = 9.5 +/- 1.0) and with stimulated cycle pregnancies (Dd = 8.0 +/- 1.5). The hypothesis to explain this observation is then discussed.

D011247 Pregnancy The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH. Gestation,Pregnancies
D011863 Radioimmunoassay Classic quantitative assay for detection of antigen-antibody reactions using a radioactively labeled substance (radioligand) either directly or indirectly to measure the binding of the unlabeled substance to a specific antibody or other receptor system. Non-immunogenic substances (e.g., haptens) can be measured if coupled to larger carrier proteins (e.g., bovine gamma-globulin or human serum albumin) capable of inducing antibody formation. Radioimmunoassays
