The ultrasound results in 141 patients through 203 cycles stimulated with clomiphene citrate prior to oocyte collection and in vitro fertilization are analyzed. A wide range in the size and number of follicles was seen. Bivariate analysis of the size of the largest follicle, compared with the time of the spontaneous luteinizing hormone (LH) surge, has shown a highly significant correlation (r = 0.720; P less than 0.001) between these two variables, but the accuracy of prediction of the LH surge in a specific cycle, as expressed by the standard error of estimate, was 34.3 hours. As an isolated observation, ultrasound results are no better than the menstrual history in predicting the time of the LH surge in stimulated cycles. Multiparameter assessment of follicular development is required.
分析了141例患者在卵母细胞采集和体外受精前经枸橼酸氯米芬刺激的203个周期的超声检查结果。观察到卵泡的大小和数量范围很广。对最大卵泡大小与自发性促黄体生成素（LH）峰出现时间进行双变量分析，结果显示这两个变量之间存在高度显著的相关性（r = 0.720；P < 0.001），但以估计标准误差表示的特定周期中LH峰预测的准确性为34.3小时。作为一项独立观察，在预测刺激周期中LH峰出现时间方面，超声检查结果并不比月经史更好。需要对卵泡发育进行多参数评估。
