Abstract:
Objective To investigate the association between renin-like activity (RA) and angiotensin Ⅱ (AⅡ) and the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Methods Blood samples were taken from 42 patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF). According to the ovarian stimulating response, the patients were divided into 4 groups: group Ⅰ, low responders, 7 cases; group Ⅱ, moderate responders, 8 cases; group Ⅲa high responders without using albumin, 7 cases, group Ⅲb, high responders with albumin, 10 cases; group Ⅳ, severe and moderate OHSS, 10 cases. 5 patients for intrauterin insemination with natural cycle as control. Follicular fluid (FF) was collected at oocyte retrieval from 28 IVF patients (including 7 OHSS patients). Fluid from ascites and hydrothorax was obtained from 3 OHSS patients, and peritoneal fluid obtained from 5 infertility patients by laparoscopy and ascitic fluid obtained from 6 ovarian carcinoma patients served as control. RA and AⅡ levels were measured by radioimmunoassay. Results plasma RA and AⅡ levels at mid-luteal phase from OHSS patients [(19.9?19.0)?g?L -1 ?h -1 and (397.0?378.2) ng/L] were significantly higher than those from the other patients ( P
