2. FIGURE 1
Pregnancy success shows linear correlation with initial βhCG level 13 days after ET with a coefficient of the linear model of (P<.0001). βhCG quartiles: first quartile: 0–62 mIU/mL (n = 134), second quartile: 63–141 mIU/mL (n = 134), third quartile: 142–297 mIU/mL (n = 132), fourth quartile: 298–3,047 mIU/mL (n = 133). The odds ratio was for each increase in the βhCG quartile.

3. FIGURE 2
Pregnancy success rate is correlated with early embryonic developmental delay both in the study group and the control group. The difference in days between calculated embryonic age and actual embryonic age as derived from measured CRL is represented in the x-axis.
