Serum hCG β and hCG heterodimer concentrations in DS and other trisomic pregnancy conditions. a) serum hCG β hormone concentrations in control (N = 18), T21 (N = 23), T18 (N = 7) and T13 (N = 4) pregnancies b) serum hCG heterodimer concentrations in control (N = 19), T21 (N = 15), T18 (N = 12) and T13 (N = 4) pregnancies; c) serum hCG heterodimer concentrations at 11 wk (control, N = 417; T21 N = 68), 12 wk (control, N = 417; T21, N = 148), 13 wk (control, N = 161 ; T21, N = 73), and 14 wk (control, N = 65 ; T21, N = 14) pregnancies; The median hormone concentrations and 95% confidence intervals for each data set are shown. N = number of patient samples analyzed. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01.
