Placental proteins in male serum.

Abstract:

:Placental proteins such as human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG), Schwangerschaftsprotein 1 (SP1) and pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) are found in the blood of pregnant women and in subjects suffering from cancer. They can also be found in the blood of healthy non-pregnant women and in the seminal fluid of males. Surprisingly, hCG and SP1 could not be found in male serum, although PAPP-A occasionally occurs there.

  • Compensatory mechanisms which prevent urinary incontinence in aging women.

    abstract::The relationship between age and urodynamic parameters was studied cross-sectionally in a group of 28 women in whom clinically and urodynamically both stress incontinence and detrusor instability were excluded (no proven incontinence, NPI) and in a group, matched for age, with genuine stress incontinence (GSI). At all...
