“…From 30 publications comparing r-hFSH versus hMG in ART, seven were meta-analyses/reviews (Al-Inany [2003, 2005, 2008, 2009], Westergaard, Coomarasamy, Afnan), four were excluded as duplicate publications (Plateau [2004, 2008], Smitz, Ziebe) and three studies were excluded because of insufficient details (Elwin [unpublished data], Loutradis, Strowitski) [1,2,13,18,23,26,30-32,42-45]. The 16 remaining studies which were truly or quasi-randomized met the inclusion criteria and were found to be of acceptable internal validity [5,14-17,19-22,24,25,27-29,46,47].…”
