- The table summarizes the data in Figure 1. Corpus luteum-resistance index (CL-RI) was measured during the mid-luteal phase in the control group, HCG group, and vitamin E group. The value shows the mean ± SEM from the patient mean value. In this study, when CL-RI was more than 0.51, the patient was diagnosed as having decreased luteal blood flow.
- a; p < 0.01 and b; p < 0.05 v.s. control (Kruskal-Wallis test followed by the Mann-Whitney U-test using the Bonferroni correction). c; p < 0.01 v.s. control (x2-test with Bonferroni correction).
