[Evaluation of the usefulness of enzymatic determination of estriol in urine and placental lactogen in serum of pregnant women with threatened preterm labor]. / Ocena przydatnosci oznaczania poziomu estriolu w moczu i laktogenu lozyskowego w surowicy krwi u ciezarnych z porodem przedwczesnym zagrazajacym.

The authors studied 60 pregnant women in the pregnancy period from 29-37 weeks with threatened preterm labor. The control group formed 40 healthy pregnant women in the same pregnancy period. In all pregnant women the values of oestriol in 24-hour urine and placental lactogen in the serum was measured. Statistically significantly lower values of placental lactogen were found in the serum of pregnant women with threatened preterm labor. The values of oestriol in 24-hour urine were also lower, but the differences were not statistically significant. In 40 pregnant women in the pregnancy period from 16 to 28 weeks with threatened in the serum is a useful method of monitoring of pregnancy with threatened preterm labor. Determination of oestriol was without any greater diagnostic significance in the case threatened preterm labor.

In 40 pregnant women in the pregnancy period from 16 to 28 weeks with threatened preterm labor diagnosed after clinical investigations and recording of cardiotocogram the values of oestriol in 24-hour urine and placental lactogen in the serum was measured. These values were compared to analogous determinations in a group 40 healthy women with similar duration of pregnancy. Statistically significantly lower values of placental lactogen were found in the serum of pregnant women with threatened preterm labor. The values of oestriol in 24-hour urine were also lower, but the differences were not statistically significant. In conclusion the authors state that enzymatically determined placental lactogen in the serum is a useful method of monitoring of pregnancy with threatened preterm labor. Determination of oestriol was without any greater diagnostic significance in the case of threatened preterm labor.

Authors of this article give priority to controlling beta sub-unit HCG acc. to Romero, to ultrasonographic vaginal probe examination and to diagnostic laparoscopy. Early surgical intervention increases the chances to maintain woman's fertility. All procedures on women with ectopic--oviduct pregnancy should be sparing, depending on the ward equipment and personnel training and should be performed by the means of operative laparoscopy method.

[Treatment of infertility in marriage using a method of transcervical gamete introduction into the fallopian tube under control of USG]. / Leczenie nieplodnosci malzenskiej metoda przezszyjkowego gamet do jajowodu pod kontrola USG.

GIFT under USG control (USGIFT) was performed in 18 females between may and december of 1992. The ovulation was stimulated by gonadotropin and Clomid.
