Item Detection of immunosuppressive early pregnancy factor in humans.(1987-01-01) Mehta, A R; Menezes, J; Peter, J; Hinduja, I N; Shahani, S KItem Ectopic pregnancy after tubal sterilization.(1991-01-01) Shah, J P; Parulekar, S V; Hinduja, I NWe report 13 cases of ectopic pregnancy following tubal ligation out of 287 ectopic pregnancies seen during a six year period (1984-1989). These findings suggest that tubal sterilization does not invariably confer infertility. Ectopic pregnancy must not be disregarded in women who have undergone tubal ligation, especially if two or more years have elapsed since the sterilization.Item Gynaecological and obstetrical survey of Bhopal women following exposure to methyl isocyanate.(1986-10-01) Shilotri, N P; Raval, M Y; Hinduja, I NItem Localization and detection of ovarian follicular fluid protein in follicles of human ovaries.(1992-04-01) Nandedkar, T D; Shahid, J K; Mehta, R; Moodbidri, S B; Hegde, U C; Hinduja, I NHuman ovarian follicular fluid protein has been partially purified and the active fraction designated as hGF2. Using specific polyclonal antiserum to hGF2, it was observed to be localized immunohistochemically in the granulosa cells of medium but not large follicles of human ovary. The hGF2 levels were estimated by ELISA in serum and follicular fluid of 10 gonadotropin-stimulated women recruited for IVF-ET programme. The results revealed a 3-fold increase in the concentration of hGF2 in follicular fluid compared to that in serum of these patients. These data indicate that the protein is secreted by granulosa cells and plays an important role in the regulation of follicular maturation and ovulation.Item Relevance of plasma fibrinogen estimation in obstetric complications.(1992-10-01) Parasnis, H; Raje, B; Hinduja, I NWe present a study of fibrinogen levels in 133 patients who were prone to develop disseminated intravascular coagulation as a result of an underlying complication of pregnancy such as abruptio placentae, pregnancy-induced hypertension, missed abortion, septic abortion, intrauterine fetal death, vesicular mole and amniotic fluid embolism. A high incidence of hypofibrinogenemia was found in cases of abruptio placentae (43.9%) and pregnancy-induced hypertension (25%). Hypofibrinogenemia occurred in 10% cases of intrauterine fetal death within 4 weeks of fetal demise. The use of this simple investigation makes possible the diagnosis of hemostatic failure and also helps to guide replacement therapy during the fibrinopenic state. There were 4 maternal deaths and 12 perinatal losses in this study.Item Role of microbial study in selection of subjects for in vitro fertilization & embryo transfer (IVF-ET).(1988-08-01) Gopalkrishnan, K; Hinduja, I N; Latha, P; Mehta, A PItem Volume of semen as a parameter of its quality.(1992-12-01) Gopalkrishnan, K; Hinduja, I N; Kumar, T CA total of 1655 semen samples obtained from men who underwent initial semen analysis before enrolling for IVF-ET programme were analysed. The semen samples were categorized arbitrarily on the basis of volume as high (> 4.5 ml), normal (1.5-4.5 ml) and low (< 1.5 ml). The semen parameters studied vis-a-vis volume of the sample were viscosity, osmolality, motility, sperm count and morphology. The different volume groups were also compared to the overall quality of the sample. The study showed that high and low volume semen were associated with high incidence of spermatozoa exhibiting subfertile characteristics. Normal volume per se did not indicate the quality of the sample, however high and low volumes were indicators of semen of subfertile quality. There was an inverse correlation between osmolality and volume of semen sample. Thus the parameter 'volume' gives a rough estimate of the quality of the sample.
