摘要
Total renin protein concentration (TRC) was measured in stored follicular fluid (FF) samples from 42 women. Samples were selected according to their origin from follicles either without recovered ova ('empty', n = 38) or fertilized but with failed implantation ('failed', n = 36) or successful deliveries ('deliveries', n = 71). Ratios of number of embryos transfered to number of infants delivered were 2:1, 3:1 or 4:2 but 1:1 was not available. Non-parametric testing was applied to FF-TRC, volume and outcome. TRC was significantly higher in the delivery than the failed (P = 0.001) or empty (P = 0.002) categories. Assuming that the range of renin in failed follicles can identify the sub-population of unsuccessful follicles in the delivery category, then elevated FF-TRC was clearly associated with successful outcome. For individual women, the odds of infant delivery increased 17-fold as a function of average FF-TRC between 10 000 and 25 000 μIU/ml. For failed and delivery but not empty follicles, higher renin levels occurred in the smaller follicles, consistent with a burst of renin synthesis associated with the presence of an oocyte. The results suggest that FF-TRC relates to ovum viability with ovarian hyperstimulation and may have predictive use in IVF programmes. © 1990 Oxford University Press.
