Background: Ovulation induction by human menopausal gonadotrophin (HMG) results in temporal luteal phase defect. Luteal support therapies are required to support embryo implantation in stimulated cycle especially in luteal phase defect infertile women.
Objective: The objective of the present study was to investigate the clinical significance of progesterone, aspirin and HCG on human embryo implantation in women with luteal phase defect following ICSI and embryo transfer (ET).
Patients and Methods: The female patients were divided into six groups depending on the type of the luteal support protocols (LSP). Group 1 (No= 54), received 10 mg oral progesterone (P), group 2 (No= 35) received P plus HCG, group 3 (No= 59) received P plus HCG plus oral aspirin, group 4 (No= 47) received vaginal P administered 24 hours before embryo transfer plus oral aspirin, group 5 (No= 40) received vaginal P administered 12 hours after embryo transfer plus oral aspirin and group 6 (No= 46) received intramuscular P plus oral aspirin. The LSP were continued for at least 12 weeks, when the BHCG test was positive, (tested two weeks after embryo transfer).
Results: Statistical analysis of the clinical data showed no significant differences between the LSP in regard to patient's age, body mass index (B/M2), basal FSH/LH ratio and estradiol concentration at the day of HCG injection. The ICSI rate, percentages of embryos developed in vitro, and the numbers of the transferable quality embryos were similar in all groups (P>0.05). The pregnancy rate was significantly higher (P < 0.05), in group 4 compared to other groups (38.66% versus 24.51%(G 1), 22.53% (G 2), 28.66% (G 3), 25% (G 5), 21.60% (G 6). The percentages of viable fetal sac development per patient were 31.49 (17/54), in G 1, 42.86 (15/35), in G 2, 49.16 (29/59), in G 3, 59.58 (28/47), in G 4, 32.50 (13/40), in G 5, and 34.79 (16/46), G 6. The percent of viable gestation sac was significantly higher in group 4 compared to other groups (P < 0.05).
Concl u s i o n s : The administration of 400 mg /day vaginal progesterone 24 hours before ET and 100 mg/day aspirin five days after ET results in significant improvements in pregnancy and embryo implantation rates and development of viable fetuses in luteal phase defect infertile women undergoing ICSI-ET.
I often read in Islamic jurisprudence in all chapters as much as possible from divine success, time and health, and everything I read in any of the chapters of jurisprudence, I see divine light, eternal wisdom, and a constitution that does not accept error and alteration, as I looked at the great jurisprudential treasures and this enormous wealth, A person finds in himself helplessness in front of this law, how clear, easy, and accurate it is, and it contains permanent good for man, as it is a religion of mercy, benevolence, and goodness, and among these chapters of jurisprudence is the jurisprudence of the commandment. Of the reasons, in the will, the person has had the opportunity to make up for what he missed of doing good that a pers

Steel structures are a compilation of structural elements, where its shapes have standard dimensions and pre-fabricated. As the steel construction systems not only aim to achieve the functional requirements for users, but must also have the symbolic aesthetics which provides visually and cognitive expression for viewers. In this sense the research interested in expressional aesthetics in these systems and highlights the importance of attention as structural items. Therefore the visual items which related with steel structures contain some of the most powerful forms of modern architecture, steel structures with a glass cladding, agility an

The favorable medium for callus formation was Murashige and skoog (MS, 1962)supplemented with Banzylaminopurine ( BAP) plus Naphalene acetic acid (NAA) in106M each . Whereas, the best medium for differentiation was MS ,1962 supplemented with BAP 10-7M and NAA10-7M . The formed shoots were transferred to media without Auxin (control) or with different (NAA) concentrations (10-6and 10-7M) . The best rooted shoots were on control, transferred successfully to jeffy 7 discs and to the green house after 3 weeks.

Materials: A total of 400 singleton newborns delivered at two hospitals in Baghdad city during 15th June to 15th Nov. 2003 were included in the study.
Results: Half of the neonates were born with low birth weight. Out of the low birth weight neonates, there were 83% preterm neonates. Prevalence of low birth weight neonates was significantly associated with maternal age, age at marriage, parity, and anaemia.
Conclusion: This study indicates that the most appropriate approa

In this paper four methods will be studied to detect outliers for the multiple linear regression model in two cases : first, in real data; and secondly, after adding the outliers to data and the attempt to detect it. The study is conducted for samples with different sizes, and uses three measures for comparing between these methods . These three measures are : the mask, dumping and standard error of the estimate.

There is an association between the signifier and the signifier. This association shows the eyeball, which acquires a direct presence and whose presence influences the level of production of the hidden connotation. Because the theatrical presentation is a series of auditory-visual functions, these signs are looking for the exploration of their meanings and their evocation to form a complete loop to achieve the association of the above. This is what made the researcher to monitor the abundance of semantic shifts in theatrical presentation as long as the implications of the strategy continue in the game of semantic production with multiple horizons, and the idea in theatrical presentation tolerates multiple readings according to the refere
